Ciao Bella Stenciled Cards

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


The Cia Bella Fern Stencil measures 5" x 8" and is perfect to use as a background for your projects.


Using the Ranger Ink Blending Tool, I inked the stencil with Distress Oxide Ink in Bundled Sage and Mowed Lawn.


Once the first panel was inked, I flipped over the stencil, and, using a baby wipe, inked up a 2nd panel.  This process creates a negative, watercolor effect.


Next, I took several tags from the Scrapaholics - Chipboard - ExploreTag Set, and inked with Distress Oxide Ink.


Wrapping May Arts Sheer Celery Ribbon lengthwise around one panel, I tied the tag to the ribbon with Baker's Twine.


I wrapped the same ribbon horizontally around the second panel, also tying the tag to the ribbon with Baker's Twine.


The panels were added to cards created from Echo Park - Let's Go Camping cardstock.  The panels were added to the cards with EK Success 3D Dots for dimension.

Fall cards with Photo Play

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.  

As we head into our next season, I want to wish everyone Happy Fall.

Have you seen the Photo Play Gnome for Thanksgiving paper pad?  This paper pad is 24 double sided papers of pure fall.  Not only is it filled with fall colors and designs, it also includes fall photos and phrases that can be the focal point of your cards.


I created 4 cards using this paper pad and I still have some remaining sheets left to create with.


Using Lawn Fawn Rectangle Dies, I die cut several of the papers as well as coordinating Bazzill  cardstock in Gold Coins and Candy Corn.


I die cut additional papers using Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Dies.  As I wanted it off the edge of the card, I cut the edge off the circle.


2 cards were created from Candy Corn cardstock and papers from this collection were placed on the cards.


2 cards were created from Gold Coins cardstock and different papers from this collection were placed on the cards.


The next layers were assembled, then wrapped with twine.  The turkey gnome was added to one card with foam adhesives for dimension.  The pinecone was fussy cut and placed atop the circle die cut which was also added to the card with foam adhesives for dimension.


Selecting another gnome and fall phrase, I die cut them for the next 2 cards.  I place strips of left over scraps on one of the cards before assembling.  For the gnome card, I die cut Lawn Fawn's Happy Fall and placed it on the card using Art Institute Glue.


Aren't they adorable?  Hope you try out this paper pack.

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.





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.

Hello Friend - Thinking of You

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 used the Memory Box Bird Sanctuary Clear Stamp set for my card, stamping one of the birds with Lawn Fawn Black Licorice Ink on Bazzill Marshmallow Cardstock.  Use an art dauber to add a touch of  Ranger Tea Dye Ink to the bird's wings.


Because I wanted the bird to sit along the bottom edge of the card, I first die cut it with Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Die then matted with a larger scalloped die.  I cut off the bottom edge so it would sit along the bottom edge of the card, then stamped the phrase, also from this stamp set, in red ink.    I also stamped a second phrase in Black Licorice Ink on a strip of white cardstock.

 

The card was created from Bazzill Candy Bar Cardstock and a sheet of wood grain paper was added as the base layer.  The die cut bird was added to the bottom edge.   After matting Hello Friend with brown cardstock, I wrapped twine around the panel then added it to the card with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Adhesives.  



Finally, I used Ranger  Liquid Pearls in Oyster around the card.

Summer Travel Treats

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.


Using Scor-Pal, I created a set of cards from Bazzill Jawbreaker Cardstock and Lawn Fawn Kraft Cardstock.  I  used papers from the Maja Design Life by the Sea and Sommartider collections to complete the cards.  The top layers of the cards were die cut using Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Dies.


I also created a coordinating set of gift bags which I'll fill with little odds and ends for the traveler.  The top layers were die cut  using Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Dies.



I used Sizzix Thinlit Dies by Tim Holtz, die cutting the words from scraps of the pattern papers I used for the cards and gift bags.  The mats were die cut from Bazzill Jawbreaker Cardstock.  


Tattered Lace Detail Glue with it's fine tip was used to adhere the word layers together.


Creating tags from Bazzill Jawbreaker Cardstock, I added assorted layers and placed words on top.  Twine was added to each tag.


Happy Summer from Lawn Fawn was die cut from Jawbreaker Cardstock and adhered across each card using the Tattered Lace Detail Glue.


This would be a nice set to give to someone planning on traveling this summer.


Fill the gift bags with little treats, or perhaps a pad and paper for doodling.
