Inky Wonderful Christmas Card

Hi, Connie here with a Christmas card using a wonderful inky background to highlight the holiday die cut shapes on the card front. Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L works so well securing all of the small parts. They have you covered – no part is too small for adhesive.

First decide on patterned papers, cardstock, and card design. Then die-cut the shapes you will need to complete the card.

Inky Fun Background

Inky Wonderful Christmas Card Tutorial by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

On a card panel, start creating a background for the Christmas Tree scene. I used a combination of Distress Oxide inks to color a warm golden tone. It’s such a fun technique to add a mixed media backdrop. Don’t forget to splatter a little water!

Creating the Scene

Inky Wonderful Christmas Card Tutorial by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L
  1. Using the tree stencil in the craft die set, lay it over the coordinating shape, and add snow in just the right places.
  2. For the gift boxes, add the gift bows with the Dual Tip Glue Pen.
  3. I used 3D Foam Circles White Mix to add dimension to the gifts.
  4. Stamp the sentiment on white cardstock and cut into strips. Use 3D Foam Strips to adhere “wonderful” to overlap and popped up.

The Card Panels

Inky Wonderful Christmas Card Tutorial by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

When matting the inky card front, I used Crafty Foam Tape 108′ and adhered it to an off white cardstock panel.

Next, I used E-Z Runner Grand Permanent White Dispenser to attach the layered card panel to a folded card base. Now my Inky Wonderful Christmas Card is ready to be mailed!

Merry Christmas Wreath Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with some Christmas inspiration. With Christmas coming up next month I started making my Christmas cards. I know this Merry Christmas Wreath Card may look complicated but with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products, it’s much easier to create than you might think. Let me show you how in my photo tutorial.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Christmas Wreath Panel Steps

The top card panel for this card was embossed with a 3D brick embossing folder. Place a piece of white cardstock between the embossing folder and run the embossing sandwich through your die-cutting and embossing machine. Then trim the edges to the desired size by using a paper trimmer.

To highlight the embossed design, I used an ink blending tool to softly dab and brush a combination of brown and grey inks.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Card Panel Embellishing Details

Adhere the embossed panel onto a slightly larger brown card panel and then attach the layered panel to a white card base using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser.

Next die-cut and emboss a scalloped circle from gold cardstock and a slightly smaller white circle from white cardstock. Layer the two die cut shapes with 3D Foam Squares White Mix. Then adhere them to the card base with more foam squares.

Making the Christmas Wreath

Let’s make the Christmas wreath! First, die-cut several berry branches from brown cardstock. Then add small drops of glue using the Dual Tip Glue Pen onto the little berries shapes.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Gently press down the berries into red glitter and tap off any excess.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Set aside to dry. Repeat this step with the other berry branches.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

When the glittered berries dry, adhere the branches around the edge of the white circle shape on the card base.

Adhere mulberry holly leaves between the white and golden die-cut circles using the Dual Tip Glue Pen to give color and layer to the wreath.

Merry Christmas Wreath Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Designer’s Tip: Use tweezers for the precise placement of the leaves.

The Finishing Touches

For the sentiment, I used a sentiment sticker which I double matted with white and gold cardstock using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser. Lastly, I adhered it to the Christmas wreath using 3D Foam Squares White Mix in the middle of the wreath.

For the final touch, I made a red satin bow and adhered it to the top of the Christmas wreath using Adhesive Dots Large.

Voila…your Christmas Wreath card is ready. I bet it was easier than you thought!

Wishing you happy (Christmas) crafting,
Yvonne van de Grijp

Poster Calendar Holiday Layout

Hi friends! Dana here today sharing a holiday scrapbook layout. I switched up my usual layout size from 12×12 to 11×14 by using a gorgeous Linnea poster calendar as the base. The expanded size was fun to embellish with some of my favorite adhesive techniques.

Poster Calendar Holiday Layout by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

All the pretty trees on this calendar poster had me thinking of my own decorated Christmas tree. The 2018 holiday season was extra special because it was the first year we celebrated the holiday in our new home.

Adhesive Techniques for Holiday Crafting

Poster Calendar Holiday Layout by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Chipboard is a great way to add texture and dimension to a project. My go-to adhesive for chipboard, especially script or intricate designs with lots of curves, is the E-Z Runner Petite Permanent Dots Dispenser. A quick swipe of this runner over chipboard applies a layer of adhesive dots. Don’t let the size of these dots deter you from using them on large chipboard pieces. The adhesive dots are small but extremely strong!

Poster Calendar Holiday Layout by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I used Adhesive Dots Medium to secure the chipboard letter tiles across the top of the poster calendar. The 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit with Foil is themed for Winter and includes pre-cut 3D Foam shapes of trees, stars, snowflakes, and other Christmas designs, with 5 sheets of Metallic Transfer Foil. I used several different sizes of 3D foam circles and the metallic transfer foil in several colors to add shimmery dots around the poster. I added mini gold star sequins to the background using Adhesive Dots Micro.

Finishing Touches

Poster Calendar Holiday Layout by Dana Tatar for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The gorgeous dimensional bow shown above is a 3D foam design from the Holiday Embellishment Kit that I covered with red metallic transfer foil. I used Crafty Foam Tape to attach the pinecone, a more heavy embellishment, and my photo to the poster. Creative Photo Corners in Gold were the perfect finishing touch to add a bit of sparkle.

Thanks for stopping by today! I hope I have inspired you to save old calendar pages to use in your crafting.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique

Hello crafty friends! Judy here today. As I put together this Thanksgiving card, the wind was whipping leaves everywhere. Brown crispy leaves not nearly so pretty as the foil + inky leaves on this card!

The foiled leaves are made with aluminum foil from my kitchen! Can you believe it? Let me show you how.

Foil + Inky Leaves Technique

Attach Adhesive Sheets 6×12 inch to the back of a 6 x 12-inch Kraft cardstock. I chose Kraft because I have a lot of it. Black cardstock is also a good choice.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remove the liner and place the adhesive side down on aluminum foil. I find it easier to keep foil smooth this way.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Next, add various colors of alcohol inks and blend them with a felt blending tool. Mist rubbing alcohol over the inks for a mottled pattern. Repeat these steps until you get your desired color.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Use a die-cut machine and leaf dies to die cut three different leaf shapes with the foiled paper. With the shape still in the die, trace the vein lines with a black permanent marker using the die as a stencil.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Card Panel Details

Ink grid design stamp with Fossilized Amber Oxide ink. Stamp on the 1.125 x 5.5-inch piece blue calypso cardstock strip. Re-ink stamp and stamp again to continue pattern over the entire piece. Apply Monarch ink to craze stamp. Stamp over grid pattern.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Form into a 4.25 x 5.5-inch card base with a buff-color cardstock. For a card panel, cut a light brown paper to 4.25 x 5.5 inches. My light brown paper was not heavy enough to make the card but I wanted to use this color. Use E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser to secure the light brown paper to the card front.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Card Front Embellishing

Attach the stamped strip near the left edge using E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser. Cut about a narrow strip of 0.125-inch wide x 5.5-inches long from the alcohol inked foil paper.

Use E-Z Runner® Micro Refillable Dispenser to apply adhesive to the back of the strip. Adhere to the card panel near the edge of the stamped blue calypso border.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Place Adhesive Squares on the back of leaves. I used 3D Foam Squares Black Mix on the maple and solid leaf (not sure what kind it is!) and Thin 3D Foam Squares Black Mix on the oak leaf. Arrange and attach the leaves to the card.

Foil + Inky Leaves Card Technique by Judy Hayes for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stamp the sentiment with Monarch ink and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.

Ornate Christmas Card

Hello crafty friends! Tracy here, and today I am sharing a pretty little ornate Christmas card, and all of the fabulous stickiness that made it happen. Here are the details.

Ornate Christmas Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Tips + Tricks That Sticks

Anytime that I create an ornate Christmas card or project that may carry some weight, I turn to my trusty E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser. This will make sure that all of my tricky layers will stay put.

The top patterned paper layer is added to the card using Crafty Foam Tape White for a little extra dimension between layers. Then I added the chipboard frame and buttons using Adhesive Dots Micro.

Ornate Christmas Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

My Adhesive Dots Micro came in handy for attaching the silk ribbon bow also. I upgraded to the Adhesive Dots Medium when adding the dimensional flowers.

I used Crafty Foam Tape White again to add the chipboard sticker sentiment to my ornate Christmas card. The “Joy & Cheer” ephemera piece is added to the top tag using Thin 3D Foam Squares White Mix.

Ornate Christmas Card by Tracy McLennon for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adding dimension and texture to a project is easy. It’s making that stick last is what’s tricky. Hope these tips help with your next Ornate Christmas Card project.

Be The Change Card Tutorial

Have you ever had a sticker that was just so cool you had to make a card with it? Be The Change card is one of those cool cards! Christine joining you today with an encouraging card with a technique using the Creative Photo Corners!

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

If this technique looks familiar, it’s because you’ve seen me do it a couple of times before! I have used it on a scrapbook layout and. a home decor piece. But this is the first time that I have done it on a card! Let’s dive into how it came together!

Be the Change Card Background Technique

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For today’s card, I used the Creative Photo Corners in Gold.

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Draw a circle on your card. It will be covered up, so don’t worry about erasing anything. Use your Creative Photo Corners to outline the circle. You will need to overlap a little.

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Keep going until you finish a full circle. Keep building up the layers.

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Eventually, you will end up with a beautiful, golden shape to add texture and dimension to your card background!

The Rest of the Adhesives

To finish off the card I used several different adhesives. The layers are assembled with a combination of Crafty Foam Tape and the E-Z Runner Grand. Adding the stickers was a little trickier because of the background.

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I added the small details using Small 3D Foam Circles. This gave them some dimension and a strong hold.

Be the Change Card Tutorial by Christine Meyer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

The big sticker was flat and I was concerned about how well it would hold against the Creative Photo Corners. So I added Adhesive Lines to the back of that to give it a really strong hold.

Thanks so much for joining me today! I hope you’ve been inspired to bust out those Creative Photo Corners and try something new!

Don’t Leaf Me Hanging Card

Hi, Crafty Friends! Meghan Kennihan here today and I am SO EXCITED to be Guest Designing for the next three months. I have a fall-themed card with a bit of humor, Don’t Leaf Me Hanging. So cute! Let me share with you my tutorial. Let’s get started!

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Don’t Leaf Me Hanging Card Background

Pick the background paper that you will die-cut and apply it to the Adhesive Sheet 4 x 6-inch. I choose a rich brown card stock for my die cut shape and metallic gold for my card base.

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Die-cut your cover plate design, peel off the Adhesive Sheet and adhere to your base.

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Card Panel Details

I adhered my stenciled and inked leaf cardstock strip across the middle of my card panel using E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

I placed Creative Photo Corners Gold around my stenciled and inked leaf strip. Also, on the corners of my card panel so that everything is framed in that golden metallic accent.

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adhere the sentiment, Don’t Leaf Me Hanging, and the metallic gold leaf shapes on to my stenciled and inked leaf strip with the E-Z Runner® Petite Permanent Dots Refillable Dispenser.

Don't Leaf Me Hanging Card by Meghan Kennihan for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Die Cuts and Sentiments

For a little more dimension and interest, I added 3D Foam Circles White Mix to the backs of the squirrels and popped them up.

You Charge Me Up Card by Teri Anderson

Hi, coffee-loving friends! Teri here today sharing a Robot Coffee Card to get your creative juices buzzing!

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Building the Scene

This card was easy to put together! Start stamping, coloring in, and die-cutting several coffee cups and accessories, as well as a few robots. You’ll also want to cut a few extra shapes without any stamping on them.

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Stack and adhere the extra shapes below your stamped images. This will give some of your shapes extra dimension when it comes time to put the scene together.

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Adhere your scene onto a panel of inked up cardstock (or patterned paper). Add a coffee-themed sentiment and set the panel aside.

Adding Glitter to the Card

Take an A2 card and add strips of Extreme Double-Sided Tape along the sides of it to “frame” the card. I find it’s helpful to fold the liner back on the ends as I go.

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Remove the liner pieces and cover the tape with glitter. Not a glitter fan? Try using flock instead. Add several strips of Crafty Foam Tape to your card, in the glitter frame opening. Mount your Robot Coffee Card panel onto it.

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

You’ll notice my glitter frame is really thin. You may want a thicker frame. If you do, trim 1/4″ to 1/2″ off of each side of your scene before you mount it onto the card.

Robot Coffee Card with 2020 Fall/Winter Coffee Lovers Blog Hop by Teri Anderson for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Complete your Robot Coffee Card by adding a few sequins or gems to it.

Autumn Color Leaves Card

Hi everyone, Yvonne here with a glittered Autumn card. What I love about autumn so much is seeing the green leaves turn into beautiful and bright colors like yellow, orange, and even bright red. These colors inspired me to make this card.

Autumn Color Leaves Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

What’s great about this card is that it’s really super simple to make using 3D Foam Leaves. With a technique called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside, even beginning card makers can achieve this look. Shall we get crafty?

Autumn Card Base Layers

Use the E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to adhere a rectangle Kraft card panel on top of a slightly larger dark salmon panel.

Glittered Autumn Leaves

Start by adhering 3D Foam Leaves onto the kraft card panel until you get your desired look.

Autumn Color Leaves Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Using a craft knife, cut through the top liner over the length of each leaf.

Autumn Color Leaves Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Randomly gently peel off half of some of the leaves and sprinkle an Autumn color glitter over the exposed adhesive. Press the glitter to secure and tap off any excess glitter.

Repeat this process with several autumn color glitter until all the leaves are covered. This technique showcasing your adhesive is called Wear Your Adhesive on the Outside.

Autumn Gems Placement

To add the gems in autumn colors in a unique way, I first adhered 3D Foam Circles White Mix in between gaps of the leaves. Then peel off the top liner and placed rhinestones on top. Perfect sparkle and lifts the rhinestones so it doesn’t get lost with the glittered leaves.

Autumn Color Leaves Card by Yvonne van de Grijp for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

For a finishing touch, I printed an autumn sentiment and adhered it to the card using 3D Foam Squares White Small Size.

And voila…your Autumn card is ready to make someone happy.

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and wish you happy crafting!
Hugs,
Yvonne van de Grijp

Vintage Map Fall Card

Hi, Connie here with a unique card creation using a vintage map as a background against a truckload of pumpkins. Perfect for a fall-themed card! A combination of etched dies and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L products really makes it easy for this kind of paper piecing project.

Vintage Map Fall Card by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Vintage Map Fall Card Supplies

Start with determining what cardstock or patterned paper will fit the theme of the card. Then die-cut the shapes. To give it more depth and interest, shade the images with ink. I ended up cutting the pumpkins down to make them smaller.

Embellish the Card Front

  1. Add 3D Foam Circles White Mix to the back of the pumpkins, sign, tires, and small dog shapes.
  2. Adhere Happy Fall to the sign with the Dual Tip Glue Pen.
  3. Attach the truck to the map panel and the pumpkins in the bed of the truck with the E-Z Runner Grand White Permanent Dispenser. Add the other shapes to the panel.
  4. Next, place the vintage map on a white cardstock panel using the E-Z Runner Grand Permanent Strips.

For more dimension, use the Crafty Foam Tape 108′ on the back of the matted map, and adhered to a black cardstock panel. Then mat on a sage green cardstock panel and lastly to the card base with the E-Z Runner Grand Permanent Strips.

Add acrylic paint to enhance the die cuts. Highlight the scene with stamps. Place stars and a paper doll boy face on the card to complete.
