Bird Cage Slimline Cards
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.
I started by adhering Lawn Fawn Knock on Wood papers to Sizzix Mat Board, then running it through my Big Shot with Tim Holtz Alterations Cage Bird Die by Sizzix.
Since I die cut 3 sets, I moved the birds around till I liked how they looked on the cages. I then glued them to the cages using Art Institute Glue.
I inked the cages with Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink in Ground Espresso using a Ranger Ink Blending Tool. Add some twine to the bird cages.
I used Lawn Fawn Large Slimline Dies and Lawn Fawn Small Slimline Dies to create my layers from Maja Design papers - Vintage Summer Basics 1936, Vintage Summer Basics 1943 and Vintage Summer Basics 1903.
Using Penny Black Stamps - Special Thoughts - I chose the phrases I wanted to use, inked them with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice ink and stamped them on scraps of the same papers.
Creating cards from Bazzill cardstock, I used a Scor-Pal Scoring Board to create the creases in the cardstock, so the cards folded easily. Then I assembled the cards, mixing the layers. Using Mat Board elevates the bird cages to a 3 dimensional look on your cards.
This card could be sent to someone who is not feeling quite well.
This card could be sent to someone you are missing.
This card could be sent to someone to cheer them up.
There are lots of possibilities when you mix and match your stamps, dies and papers.

Travel Cards with Stamperia Around the World
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.
Thank you for visiting
Using the Sizzix Planks die, die cut Sizzix Mat Board. Place a stencil on each plank then ink with Ranger Distress Ink - Walnut Stain.
Using papers from Stamperia's Around the World paper collection, create the cards. Use Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle dies to die cut each main layer.
Mat each layer with cardstock. Tear ticket pieces from the same paper collection, ink with brown ink and mat with cardstock.
Determine their placement, then add the mat board pieces on each card. Vary the placement on each card for a different effect.
Die cut the words using Sizzix Shadow Scrip #3 from brown and cream cardstocks. Adhere them together using Tattered Lace Detail Adhesive and add to each card as shown.

McKee Garden using 49 and Market Products from The Rubber Buggy
Hi.. it's Bev. Welcome to The Rubber Buggy blog posting for today. I am sharing 49 and Market paper and embellishments along with other misc items along with using the Stuck Sketches August sketch.
Supply List:
The Rubber Buggy Products
Paper: 49 and Market Vintage Artistry collection
Tools: Blending tool
Glue: Beacon 3-in-1
Other: stickers, washi tape, alpha stitching, rubon
Sketch: Stuck Sketches
So I am using the sketch above so the first thing I did was cut the papers on the diagonal. These I stitched together. I pulled the sheet of paper that had lots of ferns, butterflies and accent flowers. I fussy cut lots that I thought would suit the theme and photos.
In the close ups we will get a better view of the details and accents. This section show cases the fern to left side, the upper left butterfly is popped above the image on the paper. Explore is a rubon and the other great embellishments are from the Wings and Things embellishments.
This section has some accents, a rubon and some small glitter alpha letters. The other accent is also fussy cut from the print paper.
On the right side is a popped up fussy cut butterfly placed over image on the paper. The blue flowers are part of the embellishment collection.
This section showcases the zig zag stitching, washi tape corner and another great embellishment.
Here we have another section with a fussy cut flower, and more flower embellishments from the collection.
Thanks for stopping by.... be sure to visit often when I get to share more amazing products from The Rubber Buggy.

Creating Backgrounds with Gel Press
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.
Next, I placed a Tim Holtz Stencil on top of the plate and placed a sheet of paper on top and pulled a print. This process is addicting so I continued pulling prints using a variety of stencils from Prima Marketing and The Crafter's Workshop until I had no paint left on the plate. You can continue adding stencil upon stencil to get some fun effects.
I hope I've inspired you to give this technique a try.
Thank you for visiting.
Have you tried monoprinting yet? If not, you are in for a surprise. It's so much fun to create your own backgrounds using the Gel Press and assorted acrylic paints from Prima Marketing. The Gel Press comes in assorted sizes so you have lots of possibilities.
Once I placed paint on the Gel Press, I used a Gel Press Brayer to smooth the paint on the plate.
Once I had the backgrounds ready, I created cards and added stamped images/sentiments from Heartfelt Creations Coffee Talk stamp set.
I hope I've inspired you to give this technique a try.
Thank you for visiting.

Have a Great Birthday
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.
Adhere the sentiment with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Squares for dimension. Consider changing up the sentiment for Father's Day.
Thank you for visiting
If you need a masculine card, this is the perfect card with it's shades of blues and gold and all the gear embellishments. I began with embossing a panel of white cardstock with a Gears Embossing Folder. Then I added color using a Tim Holtz Blending Tool to add Stormy Sky Distress Ink and Rusty Hinge Distress Ink about the panel.
Then I cut the panel into 4 pieces and matted each piece with Bazzill Licorice Twist cardstock. I then mounted each piece on Bazzill Butter Mints cardstock before adding to Bazzil Licorice Twist card.
Add Metal Gears such as these from Prima - or create your own using this Antique Gear Set from Memory Box randomly about the card.

With Heartfelt Sympathy
Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with another card using an amazing Tutti Designs die. This time I'm using the Flower Orchestra Corner Die. This is an amazing intricate die with tons of possibilities!
Thank you for visiting.
Steph
I used Spellbinders Tool n One to remove the die - it works wonderfully, especially on those tiny pieces.
I inked the die cut with assorted colors of Ranger Distress Inks using ink daubers.
Once colored, I used Beacon 3-in-1 Advanced Craft Glue to adhere the die cut to the card.
I had already die cut a small Spellbinders oval, but needed to center my sentiment so I pulled the Mini Misti. This tool allowed me to perfectly align the sentiment in the oval.
For a little dimension, I used the Scor-Pal to score 3 staggered lines along the top edge of the card. Finally, I used foam adhesives to adhere the sentiment to the card.
Thank you for visiting.
Steph
