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.

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.

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.

 

 

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.

Bunny, Butterfly and Flowers

Hi it's Jennifer  with Tuesday's post. I am still waiting

on the Postie with all my new goodies to create with I 

will keep my fingers crossed and hopefully they will be

here before next week to share with you all.

So this week I used this really Cute Stamp

 Wild Rose Studio Bunny and Butterfly.  I have

created this background by wiping Distress Ink Pads on a
Tim Holtz Mat.I used Picked Raspberry, Dusty Concord and
Wilted Violet inks on a mat and spraying 2 squirts of water on
 each colour. I then smoosh my papers in them  drying inbetween
each layer and building up until its the right depth. I did it quiet

dark. I then sprayed it using Tim Holtz Perfect Pearls

As you can see by the Memory Box Distressed Addington Die

I only needed one corner with colour. I then diecut it from 

White Card Stock and used 3D Foam Tape around the edges and a

 couple of strips down the center for support and taped it too the 

coloured piece. You could use any of the Memory Box Dies with

an open pattern to do this with.

I then stamped the Butterfly only making sure I didn't get ink on

 the rabbit. I coloured it roughly. I then stamped another two

butterflies and fussy cut the butterfly wings one altogether and 

the other with only the top wing. I coloured them and then  covered

them in Wink of Stella Clear. I then layered each

one using 3D foam squares.

I then sprinkled a few clear sequin around. I then stamped

and fussycut the Rabbit and used 3D Tape to pop him on.

I also layered it on a white card base with an aqua layer.

All these products and more are available at the

The Rubber Buggy Shop and don't forget to visit us on Facebook 
 look for the Videos down the side too, Instragram and the 
Rubber Buggy Design Team Blog where there's a post nearly
 everyday from one of the team.

Happy Crafting

Capture the Moment using Blue Fern Studios Memories

Hi... it's Bev here today at The Rubber Buggy. I am sharing a Wedding page with my eldest son using a group photo. I went with a soft elegant colour combo and accents. I used gold liquid pearls to cover the chipboards to make them shimmer.

Supply List:
The Rubber Buggy Products:
Paper: Blue Fern Studios Memories: Songbird's Drama, Autumn Biography
Chipboard: Blue Fern Studios Captured Words, Trailing Scrolls, Film Strips
Flowers: Blue Fern Studios Attic Charm
Markers: Copics
Ink: Tim Holtz Vintage Photo, Gold Liquid Pearls
Other: beads, metal, accent, PH accents

To start this page I chose to change up the background with a bolder outer border and soft elegant central section and still keep the flower image.

I copic coloured the chippie then applied gold liquid pearls.

The photo was matted and on the side there are some Paper House 3D stickers in silver.

In this close up you get to see the pearl trim to separate the border edges, fussy cut floral and a film strip filled with print papers.

This section highlights a small floral cluster and a bead border.

The other floral cluster has more accents added like a metal butterfly and a liquid pearl trimmed chipboard.

The photo still remains front and centre with lots of great accents to compliment it. 

 

Thank for joining me today... see you again soon,

Water colored cards with Art Impression stamps

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.

I've always loved how Art Impressions creates the most amazing cards.  When I saw the buckets in the store, I knew i'd have to give them a try.  So I watched some Art Impressions videos and got to creating.

I stamped the milk jug in the center of my panel and used a water brush to add some color.  Then I stamped the fences from  another Art Impression stamp set.

I used a water brush with blue ink to create the sky and green ink to create the grassy knoll.  Pink flowers were stamped round the bucket.  A gaggle of birds were stamped in black ink.

The panel was matted with blue cardstock then added to the card.

A sentiment from WPlus9 was stamped in black ink and die cut with spellbinders dies.  Using foam adhesives, it was added to the card.

 Next, I stamped a bucket in the center of a white panel.

I stamped fence posts on either side of the bucket and water washed in some green ink.  Pink flowers were stamped around the fence.  I stamped clouds with blue ink then used a water brush to move out some of the color to paint the sky. 

 I used a water brush with brown ink along the bottom then added some tiny birds on the fences.  The panel was matted with blue cardstock and added to the card.  A sentiment from WPlus9 was stamped in black ink and die cut with spellbinders dies.  Using foam adhesives, it was added to the card.
