Creating with 3 Birds Studio and Therm-O-Web

Hi everyone!  Recently, 3 Birds Studio and Therm-O-Web teamed up and this is a layout that I made using lots of new 3 Birds products and lots of Therm o web products, too!   What a great combination of products to make page making easy!

I took a bit of a different approach with this layout.  I decided to use a whole lot of things from one embellishment kit  to build the complete design on a simple sheet of white cardstock.  For this photo of my daughter on New Year's Eve, the Touch of Glimmer Kit was the perfect choice.  All the foil and glitter accents worked just right for the look I was going for.

This close up shows some of the details of the great pieces that are in the Embellishment Kit.  In addition to pieces that are pre-made for you, there are some great pieces that you can put together yourself.  The Fabric Fuse Liquid Adhesive worked great to make the paper bows that I used. 

 

I added lots of extra dimension using the 3D Foam Squares.  I also used the Sticky Tape Runner to adhere the flat pieces. 

Don't forget the Zots!  I especially like them to adhere some of the heavier embellishments.  They are perfect for adhering chipboard.

 

As you might have guessed, this was a really great swap between companies!!  There are so many terrific products from each of them that it made it so easy to pull this page together and to make it stick!

Take a look at the Therm-O-Web blog and the 3 Birds Blog this week to see what both design teams did with all these products!

Merry Christmas with new 3 Birds Studio

Hi y'all! Recently, I told you I was in the Christmas mood, so I made another Christmas layout using the fabulous products from 3 Birds Studio!

This layout is proof that the card kits aren't just for cards!  There are so many great shapes and sentiments in the Quilled Card Kits that will work beautifully on your layouts, too.

This beautiful little wreath is in the card kit and is ready to go!  I just added a few of the foil pieces and I had an instant design element for my page.

The quilled poinsettias are also from the card kit. 

Tip:  Mix up bit and pieces from other collections.  I used chipboard, pearls, stickers and die-cuts to add interest and dimension.

Don't forget the little touches.  For balance, I added a couple of holly leaves, also from the card kit, to the corner of the  photo to pull it all together.

Supplies Used: Graceful Seasons Paper Pad, Graceful Season Dimensional Stickers, Graceful Season Chipboard Kit,  Quilled Card Kit Holiday season Edition, Midday Medley Sticker Set , Pearlescent and Foil Goodie Box.

Picture Frame for 3 Birds Studio

Hi everyone!  Today, I'm sharing a little frame  that I made using the Holiday Edition Quilled Card Kit from 3 Birds Studio.  I picked this 4x6 frame at Dollar Tree.  It was really pretty as it was but I wanted to jazz it up a bit more.  The frame comes solid white, so the first step was rubbing some silver on it to make it fit my idea a bit better.  Also, for Christmas, I'm all about the sparkle and shine!

This little frame is proof that the card kit can be used for so much more than just cards.  Most of the embellishing pieces are from the card kit.  I used the Midday Medley green paper and the Midday Medley Silver Glitter paper for the base of my design.

Using lots of foam pieces helped me to layer my design for interest and to make it sit well in the frame.  I even layered the chipboard letters using some foam.

In addition to the green holly leaves from the card kit, I punched a few extras from the silver glitter paper to add in.  I also repeated the silver glitter look by adding loose glitter to the reindeer that were in the card kit.

All in all, this is a really quick project that would also lend itself to a card but will make a cute little extra to set out during the holidays.
