Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today working with products from the Rubber Buggy Store.  Have you checked out the store lately?  There is so much to see!







Moving the book around allowed the colors to move around the covers.

Finally I used Ranger Texture Paste with  a stencil to add words across the panel.

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today working with a bunch of products from the Rubber Buggy Store.  Have you checked out the store lately?  It has so many wonderful new products.



This Memory Box die was perfect for creating a water themed card.  Using Riddersholm pattern paper - Christmas Cozy, I placed the die in the center.  Once die cut, I used Prima acrylic paint in Rose Gold to paint the coral.  Next, I used Ranger Distress Ink in Stormy Sky to ink around the panel.

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today working with a bunch of products from the Rubber Buggy Store.  Have you checked out the store lately?  It has so many wonderful new products.



Prima's 6" x 6" Rossi Belle paper pack has amazing colors and patterns that can be mixed together to create amazing designs. 

Prima also has some amazing molds and I used the Large Fleurish mold with white clay.  It's easy to create decorative elements when using clay with molds.  Once the flourish dried, I painted it with Prima Royal Red acrylic paint.



Once I inked my elements with Ranger Distress Ink in Scattered Straw, the flourish became the perfect embellishment for my card, encircling the Paris phrase.


My next card uses left over scraps to add visual interest.  Several tags were matted with black cardstock and placed on the card.  I created the clay embellishment using another Prima mold - Barouque 2.  I painted this element with Prima Gold acrylic paint.


Using clay elements adds no additional weight to your cards so they are perfect embellishments.

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with another amazing Tutti Designs Die.  This is a such a pretty die to use for Easter projects.



I began by die cutting white cardstock.  Because the die quite intricate, I used the Spellbinders Tool 'n One to release the die.  This tool removes all the little pieces effortlessly.

Today, I am adding letters to the shutter card from this die set.  I cut out twice, TARA, a friend of mine, using the Bazzill lavender paper and the Maja Designs-Vintage Autumn Basic pattern paper.  By gluing the lavender paper behind the pattern paper, this will create a shadow effect behind the name to make it stand out.

The gorgeous printed papers are from the Maja Designs - Vintage Autumn Basics 6 x 6 pad and always another favorite, Pion Design - Scent of Lavender.  These paper pads with the coordinating pattern papers make it easier to create cards such as this one.

I added this is the gorgeous Poppy Stamp die called Theo Butterfly on the top square and colored it with the Prima Marketing-Art Alchemy Opal Magic-Rose Gold Acrylic Paint.  The opal acrylic paints come in a variety of two tone colors.  I love how soft the colors are on the dies and chip boards.  I just used my fingers this time to apply it on this butterfly and the drying time was so quick.
