Hi  everyone, Steph Ackerman here on this lovely Spring Thursday.  It's a little dreary today, but the flowers are beginning to bloom!

Today I'm working with Aidan, a Julie Nutting stamp from Prima.  Masculine cards can be a challenge but working with Aidan, you can create a fun and potentially whimsy card.


Aidan was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then fussy cut.  He was lightly colored with Copic Markers before adding clothes using Graphic 45 papers.  The sentiment is from WPlus9.



Thank you for visiting.

Hi everyone!

Pi here and I'm continuing my mini serie, where I'm documenting my process in putting together a travel album using Simple stories snap collection You are here.

You can find the set up plan HERE,
#1 process video HERE.
#2 process video HERE.

This week I really feel that I have grown in my process. Usually I'm not a quick embellisher and it takes me litterly hours to make one filler card. But this time I'm super happy with what I made and it came together so easy. It must be that everything is already coordinating. This is bad new for my huge stash that will just continuing sitting there as I will start buying collections from now on - LOL!

Hi  everyone, Steph Ackerman here on this lovely Spring Thursday.  And finally the sun is shining and there is a hint of the flowers that are yet to come.

I love this Hockey Boy from Stamping Bella.  It would make a wonderful card for the hockey player in your life.  After coloring him with Copic Markers, he was mounted on Bazzill brown cardstock.

Hi everyone!

Pi back again and continuing with my travel album.
You can find the set up plan HERE and the first process video HERE.

This week I found I was more true to my own style.

In short, I have learned that I don't have the time to overthink or put to much effort in finding the perfect balance or even a straight line. Thus I have been forced to embrace the imperfection.
I have learned that in the end I'm glad that I have the story told, rather than focus on everything that could have been better layout-wise.

My goal is to fill the pockets and I do that by starting with the largest photos and continuing with the smaller. Then I add my jounaling, then I add my filler cards and last I embellish.

However, I do only manage to print a couple of photos at the time, otherwise I will forget how I intended to put them together. Thus, pending back and fourth between the steps I just told you about.

Hi  everyone, Steph Ackerman here on this lovely Spring Thursday.  And finally the sun is shining and there is a hint of the flowers that are yet to come.

Thinking about spring has lead me to creating cards using Heartfelt Creations Delightful Daisies Cling Stamp set and the coordinating Delightful Daisy Die.



The flowers and leaves were stamped and die cut using the coordinating dies - makes perfect cuts every time.  The flowers and leaves were painted with  Prima Marketing Acrylic Paints and allowed to dry.  They easily formed into shape once dry using the Heartfelt Creations Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.



The background of the card is a sheet of Bazzill Gumdrop cardstock.  Pattern papers were cut into triangles and placed on the cardstock, then May Arts Sheer Ribbon was wrapped around the panel before adhering to the card.   Using a brad I adhered the flower to the ribbon and placed the leaves underneath.

Hi everyone!

I'm here with a process video of the first pages of my travel album.
You can find the set up plan HERE.



For the first page you'll see me quickly pimp some of the snap cards.
Then the second page is mainly photos and I change the card I put there in the set up part.
I have some trouble placing the letters "CINQUE TERRE" and that takes me forever, I almost gave up. I have printed a map to the snap page which I want to highlight, so I added a geotag where we started. I also used some die cuts from the snap pack and enamel dots.

I hope you enjoyed the process and will come back for more next week.
I'm having a bit of stage fright, when the camera is recording, so I'll  see how I proceed :)
