Number 70 Birthday Card

Hello Friends!

I was recently invited to a party to celebrate a 70th birthday and needed to wrap a gift. So I stamped some Kraft packing paper.  It turned out so well that I decided to use the leftover paper to make a card. 

I'm super happy with how it turned out!  

All the directions with step out photos are on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.  Click HERE to read it.

This design could be used for any age number.  I used recycled Kraft packing paper on this card.  A different paper would change the whole look!  I may be using this idea for a few more cards!

Here's the how the gift wrap turned out!

Thanks for visiting!

Time to Celebrate Birthday Card

Hello friends!

I'm sharing a masculine birthday card today.  I'm so happy with how this turned out! 

The patterned papers are from Photo Play Collection Birthday Bash.  I like the colors! The greeting panel is a sticker with added navy and yellow mats. 

The fun part was making the glazed stars!  Stars are 3D Foam Stars covered with Distress Embossing Glaze Fossilized Amber and heated carefully. They have a little shine and texture.  I don't mind that stars curl a little when heated.  It adds to the charm of this card. 

You can find lots more details and directions for making this card at Scrapbook Adhesives Blog today.

Tag with Metallic Foil Panel

 Hello friends!

I'm back with a Tag with Metallic Foil Panel. 

Making the metallic foiled panel is quite easy with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors and a piece of 3D Foam Creative Sheets Small White.  I used pieces of foil from other projects to get the irregular pattern.  It's an easy technique that I posted on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.  Check it out for all the details and directions.

Metallic Foil Stripes Card

 Hi Friends! 

It's been a while since I posted.  I took a much needed break from crafty obligations. I needed some time for me and time to be outdoors in the summer.  I have several flower beds to tend to and I love being out in the fresh air and sunlight.  

Today, I'm back with a card made for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L.  

It's very easy to make with Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Pastel Colors and Crafty Foam Tape Black 108ft..  You can find all the directions with step out photos on Scrapbook Adhesives Blog today.  I used E-Z Runner® Ultra Strong Refillable Dispenser to put the layers together.  The stamp and coordinating die are from Taylored Expressions All Occasions.  The only other supplies are textured white cardstock and black cardstock.  Fun and easy to make!

Mini Art Journal

 Hi everyone!

Today I'm sharing a Mini Art Journal covered with coffee dyed paper and an old book page.  It's easy to make!

I was inspired by small journal made by @KarenElaineCreative on Instagram to create my journal.  It's a perfect size to carry along for quick sketches or even notes and ideas.  

This journal has pages of drawing paper.  It could easily be adapted to have watercolor paper, lined paper or printer paper.  Ideas for the cover are endless!  

I posted all the details of how to make it on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.  Click HERE to go there.

There are minimal supplies needed. List is below

Inspire Hearts of Others Card

 Hello crafty friends!

Last week I dyed some papers using an old bottle of dye mist with rust water.  I used some of those papers on this card.

 The background is an old book page with script stamped on it.  The heart was cut from dyed paper.  I've popped the heart and tag up with Thin 3D Foam Squares. Verse is from Tim Holtz, heart and background dies form Gina K and tag die from Heidi Swapp.

Layered Arches Flower Card

 Hello friends!

I've got another project up on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.  Click HERE to go to the post.

This card has a textured background that's very easy to do with Adhesive Sheets and crumpled tissue paper.  All the directions are on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog post.

I've added dimension to the arches with 3D Foam Strips.  The painted watercolor flowers also have dimension with 3D Foam Circles under petals and leaves.  

Stamped and fussy cut or die cut flowers could easily be used instead of a hand painted watercolor flower.

I hope you find some inspiration for your creative journey!

Make Your Heart Sing Tag

 Today, I've made a vintage looking tag to share.  I really struggled with coming up with an idea for a project this time.  So I started sorting through bits and pieces for past projects, things I couldn't quite throw away.  I found some hearts and a verse that would work with it and this tag evolved...

I used an easy technique to apply torn pieces of old book page to start the background on the tag.  Simply apply   to tag and then lay pieces of book page on it leaving gaps between pieces.  I used Distress Glaze to sprinkle into the exposed adhesive areas and heat embossed with heat tool.  From there, I applied several Distress ink colors rubbed onto the tag.  I also stamped foliage and script with permanent black ink.
