Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: Fall Slimline Gatefold Card

Hello! I cannot believe it's the end of October and we're into the fall season! WoW! Just for the occasion, I have a Fall Slimline Gatefold Card project up on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®'s blog today.

The split is not even cut which is done on purpose. It's cut on the 3.5-inch mark but I love how it turned out. Just a touch of color on the card front with a muted background of the stamp. What do you think?

A couple of sneak peeks here but please visit the Fall Slimline Gatefold Card tutorial over at Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Blog for more details and a full supplies list.

See you there!

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L + Stampendous Blog Hop: Loads of Christmas Wishes Card

Today I am participating in the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L and Stampendous 2018 Holiday Blog Hop! Using 3D Foam Squares and the NEW 3D Foam Circles, I made a dimensional card tutorial.

**I receive products from Stampendous and Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® for use in my projects. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience and doing so I can share what I personally love to use.**

Using Loads of Layers

Stamp images from the Truck Tidings Cling Stamps and Die Set on white cardstock with a positioning tool.

Place the corresponding etched dies over the images and die cut with a manual machine. Next, using watercolor pencils, color in the images as desired. Set aside.

Cut your card panels: 5 1/4 x 4 1/8-inches in patterned paper and 5 x 4-inches in white cardstock. Adhere all the card panels using E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Dispenser on top of an A2 sized (4-1/4 x 5-1/2 inches) red card base.

Do you remember those decorative edge scissors? Well, take out the pinking edge and cut a rolling hill design in the middle of a 5 x 1-inch patterned paper strip. With an ink applicator, ink the edges for interest and depth.

Adhere one of the cut strips about 1/2 inch from the bottom of the white card panel with E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Dispenser. Then adhere the second strip at the bottom of the white card panel with 3D Foam Squares for dimension.

Adhere the colored truck die cut on top of the green hill with E-Z Runner Permanent Strips Dispenser. Place 3D Foam Circles Small Size on top of the circle design of the tree die cut and apply different color foils from the 3D Foam Holiday Embellishment Kit.

When finished, adhere with 3D Foam Squares White Regular and place on the back of the truck. Stamp your sentiment in black ink on the upper right corner of the white card panel.

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: Sweet 16 Treat Box Banner Tutorial using E-Z Runner Grand Ultra Strong

Today I'm on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® Blog and am excited to share my literally "outside the box" project using Spellbinders® Paper Arts Surprise Me Box Etched Dies from the Special Occasions Collection by Marisa Job. It's a Sweet 16 banner with a Bohemian vibe - what do you think?

**I receive products from Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® and Spellbinders® Paper Arts for use in my projects. The opinions are completely my own based on my experience and doing so I can share what I personally love to use :) **

Let me show you how to create this dimensional banner!

First I need to change out my E-Z Runner® Grand Permanent with my E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong Refill. I use this type of adhesive when I am doing paper construction projects like these boxes.

These Grand Refills are so easy to change out - just drop it in. See the quick How to Use and Refill the E-Z Runner® Grand Dispenser video below...

Next I cut the Surprise Me Box Etched Dies Base Die for a total of six with patterned papers. Assemble each box with E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong by applying adhesive on the tabs and put the ends together.

For the letters, I took off the top liner of 3D Foam Creative Sheets (determine how much you want to use and trim first) and placed patterned paper over it. Cut the desired letter with Spellbinders® Platinum™ 6 Die Cutting and Embossing Machine. Repeat the process until you spell out SWEET.

For a visual, see How to Use 3D Foam Creative Sheets video below...

For 16, repeat above step but without adding patterned paper. Once cut, you will add glitter to the front side by removing top liner and then pressing glitter over the exposed area. Tap off excess and set aside.

Cut Surprise Me Box Etched Dies Tag Die for a total of 12 with white cardstock. Apply a line of E-Z Runner® Grand Ultra Strong in the middle of two tags per box and center them together on top to form one shape. Remove the bottom liner of a letter and place on top of the two tags. Repeat for all letters and "16."

Close each end of box with an Adhesive Dots Large. Place one in the inside and squeeze all four sides to adhere (sometimes I used two Adhesive Dots if one didn't work).

Thread jute through the top of each box and it's ready to displayed!

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L: LDRS Creative Blog Hop

Today I'm hopping with Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® and LDRS Creative so check out the Blog Hop with LDRS Creative - Day 4! post for detailed tutorial, full supplies list and a chance to win a giveaway :)

I am excited to be participating in the Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L® and LDRS Creative Blog Hop!! Using both companies' products, I created an embossed get well card...

First I embossed the Gilded Embossing Folder to give my pink shimmery card base some dimension. Set aside.

I stamped a sentiment from the Wishing You Stamp Set with black ink on white cardstock. Using the second largest oval from the Gilded Oval Labels Set, I placed over the stamped sentiment and die cut. From the same die set, I cut the largest oval from green patterned paper.

With Adhesive Sheets 12 x 12", I applied adhesive on the back of leftover Lace Ribbons and sentiment die cut by burnishing the back with a bone folder.

I place the two pieces of ribbon on each side of the card base. Next I placed several 3D Foam Squares - Black, Reg on the back of the largest oval die cut. Then centered the smaller oval die cut on top.

Then I placed the die cut between the pieces of Lace Ribbons. To finish, I placed Dodz™ Small on each side of the large oval die cut and sprinkled pink glitter on top for accents.

Another look at the finished card....

Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L and Stampendous Blog Hop: Hello Mom Card Tutorial

I am thrilled to be part of this Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®/Stampendous® Blog Hop today on Day 5! My card can be used as a Mother's Day card or just to say "Hello" to mom :) It has dimension and I only colored the die cuts as I wanted to showcase them on the card front.

Using the largest stamp, I stamped on the right side of 5 x 7" Kraft card base to create the background.

To achieve those colors, I took a piece of mixed media paper and started to different colors of Design Memory Craft® Gelatos®. I blended using a water mister and a little bit of baby wipes for my desired look. Pinks and Purples for flowers and Greens and Blues for the birds.

After the colors dried, I placed the Cling Hummingbirds Stamp Set from Stampendous® on my stamp placement tool and stamp with black ink. Place the coordinating die from Hummingbirds Die Set over the stamped image and secure with repositionable tape. Went through my manual die cutting machine. Repeat a few times to get your desired number of die cuts.

Then I adhered the flower die cuts using a combination of 3D Foam Squares White Regular, White Small and Adhesive Sheets 4 x 6" to create dimension. Lastly, I added the humming bird die cut by stacking two 3D Foam Squares for extra height.

For the finishing touches, I applied E-Z Runner® Ultra Refillable Dispenser on a couple of the flowers and pressed in Spring Micro Glitter Kit (purples & pinks for flowers and green for the bird). Then I added mini letter stickers to customize my sentiment, tie Girlie Grunge Twine in Natural and it's ready to be sent to mom!

I hope you enjoyed this tutorial! If you do, I welcome you to become a follower on my blog :)
