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!

Thanks for stopping!

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.

Love and Happiness Card with Heart Dangles

 Hello Friends!

Another project for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L!  

This pretty card features touches of metallic foil on a stamped and heat embossed background.  After warming the embossing, I placed foil on it and it stuck to the melted embossing powder.  I again heated it after foil was stuck which melted foil into the embossed design.  It's a bit challenging to do to get the right amount of heat to just re-melt the powder but not too much to make it too soft.  The dangle hearts are made from 3D Foam Hearts stuck together, covered with embossing powder, heated to melt it and then re-heated to add foil.  It's a great technique to used foil that has been used for other projects and still has areas of color.  I like the randomness of the foil on the background.

Christmas Cookie Bag Topper

 Hello friends!

Do you make cookies to give as gifts during the holidays?  I like to give some to a few family friends. This year I decided to make a Cookie Bag Topper to make them festive.

I've posted all the details with instructions and photos showing how I made this on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L blog today.  You can click HERE to the the post

It's an easy project that can be done in steps to fit into a busy schedule.

 

Once the "cookies" are die cut and assembled, putting the topper together goes quickly.  

Of course, baking the cookies to put in the bag take more time!  But oh so good!

BOO! Halloween Card

 Happy Fall everyone! 

Where I live in Minnesota, the air has a chill to it and October is just a day away.  With October comes Halloween!  

Today, I posted this fun BOO! Happy Halloween Card on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog.  There are step out photos and directions showing how to make it as well as supply list.  

It features foil from Metallic Transfer Foil Sheets Nature Colors on word BOO!.  It has a nice shine which isn't quite visible in my photo. 

The word BOO! is cut from black cardstock with Adhesives Sheets 4 x 6in. applied to front and then die cut.

After peeling adhesive liner, metallic foil is place over word, rubbed and foil then peeled away.  It's a fun technique and I like the metallic color and sheen.

Autumn Leaf Card

 Hello Friends!

I posted this card on Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L Blog today.  This card makes a bold statement and is easy to make.  

The leaf is stamped with Distress Archival Ground Expresso, clear heat embossed and then colors of Distress inks sponged over it. 

I stamped the same leaf stamp with Distress Antique Linen ink to make the background. 

"Autumn" and verse are stamped with Versafine Black Onyx ink. For the verse, I stamped off the ink on scrap paper once before stamping on card to make it slightly less bold. 

Card size is 4.25 x 5.75 inches
