Mixed Media Card

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store.  


If you like mixed media, the Lindy's Stamp Gang collection of products is perfect for you.  I started by cutting Stathmore Watercolor paper into 5"x 6" panels.  Using Lindy's Stamp Gang sprays from Beauty School Dropout and Drink Me Silly, I sprayed both panels.


Once dry, I used Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut each panel to size. Save the extra die cut layer as you will need it later on.


On the top layer I stamped 49 and Market - Gabi's Hibiscus with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink.  Each die cut panel was matted with Pion Designs Pion Black cardstock.


The card was created from Bazzill Jawbreaker cardstock.  The remaining piece of the die cut panel was added to the card, then the die cut panels were added on top.


The sentiment was die cut with the smallest Lawn Fawn die, matted with black cardstock and added to the card with 3D Foam Dots for dimension.

Stenciled Sympathy Cards

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store.  


Use the Ciao Bella Stencil - Blossom, I inked cardstock using Distress Oxide Ink - Abandoned Coral.


Using Ranger Clear Embossing Powder, I covered the panel, caught the excess power in the Sizzix Making Essentials Anti Static Funnel Tray by Tim Holtz, then heat set the panel.  This tray is perfect for me as I was constantly getting my powders everywhere, and this tray keeps everything confined.


With the ink still wet on the stencil, I flipped the stencil over onto Strathmore Watercolor paper, and using a baby wipe, rubbed the back of the stencil. 


This process moves the ink off the stencil and onto the paper.  And this is the result - a whimsical watercolor effect.


Each panel was matted with cardstock from Lawn Fawn's Tropical collection.


Cards and ovals were created from Pion Designs Pion Black cardstock.  The panels were wrapped with ribbon before being added to the cards.


Sorry was stamped with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink, embossed and die cut.


The tiny phrase was also stamped with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice ink then die cut with the smallest Lawn Fawn Small Stitched Rectangle.  Since I wanted it a little smaller, after the first cut, I rearranged the die and cut it again.  This kept the stitching on the panel.

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store.  Please visit the store for all the fun products I've used today.


Sprinkle Stamperia Glamour Pigments in Gold and Ancient Pink on Strathmore Watercolor Paper then spritz with water and let the colors mix.  Rotate the papers so the colors run.  Spritz more water as needed then heat set.


Mat each panel with Bazzill Gold Coins Cardstock then wrap with assorted ribbons and twine.


Create a pink card for card #1 and adhere the ribbon wrapped panel.  Stamp the rose and pot using  Stamperia Rubber Stamps using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink on Bazzill Marshmallow Cardstock.    Color with Copic Markers.  Die cut using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Dies.  Mat with Lawn Fawn Zig Zag Circle Dies.  Add the image on the card with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Adhesives for dimension.


Mask the word Enjoy from the same stamp set and ink with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.  Mat and add to the edge of the card.


Create a 2nd pink card and adhere the 2nd panel.  Use the same rose and pot, stamp on Bazzill Marshmallow Cardstock, color with Copic Markers, then cut the edge of the stamped image.   Mat with a Zig Zag die and cut off the edge.  Add to the card with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D foam adhesives for dimension. Stamp Enjoy as above and add to the corner of the card.  


Tie twine to the ribbon and add Enjoy to the corner.  Add a little bit of glimmer to the rose using Ranger Ice Stickles.

Mixed Media Card with Art Alchemy

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store.  Please visit the store for all the fun products I've used today.




Have you tried Prima Marketing collection of  Art Alchemy paints?   Sparks are metallic acrylic paints with a beautiful shimmer.  They are rich in color with a sparkly effect.

 I've used the following colors to create the background for my card.
Mermaid Sparkle
Butterfly spells,
Fairy Wings,
Dragons Eye,
Magical Pond

Using Strathmore Watercolor Tablet,  I painted these colors sporadically across the paper.


Once I had the colors in place, I spritzed the paper with water to allow the colors to flow, then used a paper towel to dry the paper.


Cutting the panel to fit a card, I used Scor-Pal, to score 4 lines 1/4" apart starting at the bottom of the panel.


I used the Magnolia New Year's stamp, coloring her with Copic Markers.  She was die cut and added to the card atop a larger oval.  Cheers is from Lawn Fawn's Winter Sentiments.
