Full Deck Challenge 36/2025 – flowers

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is yet another take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 2025. The prompt number 36 was “flowers”.

I used a paint residue paper (on the right side) as my carry-over-item from the previous deck card. My constant is a date stamp. On the left side I used a collage paper gifted to me by Yuna from Australia. I used the flowers as a background detail. On top I added some Rubber Dance Mix It Up 5 stamp set stamping.

Next I applied some Ocean Gloss Spray by Dina Wakley and decorated the piece with a Rubber Dance flower and stamped words. Stamps are from the Mix It Up 7 and Mix A Sentiment 2023 stamp sets.

Here is again the start-to-finish video:

See you next week with another take! Happy crafting!

Full Deck Challenge 35/2025 – letters of the alphabet

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge number 35: letters of the alphabet.

As my carry over item from the previous deck card, I used the dark green paper strip and the one with the stenciled stars on it (on the previous card I used the backside, here it´s the front).

The other paper piece is from my gelli printing projects, where I wipe residue inks etc. onto a separate paper. I usually save these papers for later use and somehow they always find a way into artworks.

My constant is a date stamp and it´s added to the background in a repeated manner. I then used tiny sticker alphas as my “letters of the alphabet”. I scattered them onto the background very randomly to create a pattern with them. Next I took a fuchsia Posca pen and added splatters with the marker tothe surface.

I finished the card off with a Rubber Dance stamp image from the set “Mix It Up 6” and added stamped words from the “Mix A Sentiment 2023” set.

Here is again the process video – have fun watching!

See you again next week with another deck card take!

Fast and easy-to-do bird cards – Rubber Dance

Hello! It´s my turn to share a project over at Rubber Dance blog today. I have an easy-to-do set of cards up. I used the Mini Marks 1 stencil, the Textured Birds 2 and Weed Love stamp sets for these cards.

I started by stamping the birds onto a gelli printed paper and then fussy cutting them. After that I used the Mini Marks 1 stencil on the card backgrounds with Distress Oxide Inks (twisted citron and salvaged patina) and a blending tool. Next I stamped a “branch” to the card for the birds to sit on using the Weed Love stamp set. After adhering the birds onto place I added the stamped sentiments and a few hearts and stars to the cards.

Here is a short start-to-finish video for you to watch. Hope you like the idea!

If you have leftover gelli printed papers, try using them for creating coloful bird images next time. Then grab a stencil and you have a finished card created in no time!
Happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 34/2025 – happy scraps

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 34/2025: happy scraps.

For this one I used plenty of leftover bits from the previous deck cards (old book paper, collage papers gifted to me by Yuna from Australia, gelli printed papers). I wripped them into tiny pieces and arranged them very randomly onto the deck card. The book paper and the gelli printed paper bits are my carry over items this time.

After that I added stamping here and there with the Mix It Up 4 stamp set (Rubber Dance). I also added my constant, the date stamp. Next I used some Posca pens to add details to the papers (white, pink and blue).

For the focal point I used a premade tree (Textured Xmas Trees 2 by Rubber Dance) and some yarn. The premade tree is done ona glossy paper with Dina Wakley Gloss Sprays and stamping. I then also added some orange Posca pen details to the tree. Then I finished the deck card with a sentiment (Mix A Sentiment 2023 stamp set).

Here is again the process video – have fun watching!

See you again next week with another FDC take!

Full Deck Challenge 33/2025 – song lyrics

Hello, this is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 33/2025 – song lyrics.

I started by taking a gelli printed paper (used this Rubber Dance stamp for it) and wrote some lines from Derik Fein´s “Sun” onto paper with my old typewriter.

I then adhered the paper onto the lightly sanded playing card and added a carry-over-item from my previous deck card to it: a piece of old book paper. Next to that I adhered a piece of collage paper gifted to me by Yuna from Australia. After that I added my constant – the date stamp – onto the book paper part. I didn´t want to cover all the song lyrics, therefore I kept the background simple and just added some collage fodder and a sentiment on top this time. The collage fodder is made with this Rubber Dance stamp and this stencil. The sentiment was done using this stamp set. You can see how I go about creating these collage pieces, if you watch my Rubber Dance playlist on YouTube :).

See you next week with another FDC take! Until then, happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 32/2025 – bird

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 32/2025 – bird.

I used a piece of book paper as my carry over item from my last deck card. Rest of the papers are again collage papers gifted to me by Yuna from Australia. On top I added some stamping with aged mahogany Distress Oxide Ink and a black ink and used Rubber Dance stamps (Textured Birds 2 and Mix It Up 7 stamp sets).

My constant is the date stamp and I again used some Gloss Spray drops (Sand) on the background, then added a piece of white gard under the fussy cut and colored bird. I added it for texture. On top of it all are again some words stamped with a Rubber Dance stamp set (Mix A Sentiment 2023). That´s it for this time. Here is the video for you to watch:

Happy creating! See you next week with another take!

Full Deck Challenge 31/2025 – rainbow

Hello and happy Friday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge numbere 31/2025: rainbow.

I used an old book paper on the background with some green collage papers (gifted by Yuna to me) as my carry-over-item from my previous deck card. On top of those I added some Neocolor II crayon in yellow.

After that I took some Heidi Swapp stickers and added sticker rainbows to the background. On top of that there are white and medieval Gloss Spray drops. I then wanted to add a bigger centerpiece and looked for a while. Then I remembered that I had drawn collage fodder for the 100 day challenge last year and looked there. And sure enough, found a hand drawn rainbow.

So I added that on to the deck card. In the process I covered a few star stickers, but I am happier with the result this way. For finishing touches I again added a sentiment. This time a sticker one from the same Heidi Swapp sticker sheet. I attached it onto white cardtock and then adhered on place. Makes it stand out more from the background that way. And I was done. Here is the process video:

See you again next week with another take!

My soul is painted – Art journal page – Rubber Dance

Hello, it´s Sanna here today with a art journal process video. For this page I used the Stacked Ovals, Mini Marks 1 and Organic 2 stencils as well as Mix It Up 7, Round In Circles and Butterflies and Moths stamps.

I used plenty of Distress Oxide Inks on the background. First I inked the backround with “mustard seed”, then added “faded jeans” and “peacock feathers” thru the Stacked Ovals stencil. On top of that I applied some Marabu Metallic Liner thru the Mini Marks 1 stencil. I used the same stencil on a different area with Faber Castell Texture Gems media. When these layers were dry, I applied some “salvaged patina” with a blending tool onto the page.

Then I placed the Organic 2 stencil onto the page and applied “iced spruce” thru the stencil onto the background. After that I stamped some faces (Mix It Up 7 stamp set) with “abandoned coral” onto the background. Then using the same stamp set I added some black stamping on top. After that I added white Gloss Spray droplets all over the page.

I had some previously made gelli printed collage papers (made with Round in Circles stamp set) which I cut into circles and adhered them onto the page. Next to the circles, I adhered collage fodder made with Butterflies and Moths stamp set. I finished the page off with typewrite typed song lyrics.

I hope you liked watching the process and got inspired to create in your own journal. Happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 30/2025 – doodles

Hello and happy Thursday! This is my take on the 30th ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 2025. The theme was “doodles”.

I again used collage papers on the background (a gift from Yuna in Australia). In addition a DIY vintage ticket strip (as a carry-over-item from my previous deck card) and some Dina Wakley gloss spray in light purple.

My constant is a date stamp and on top of everything I added some doodled collage fodder elements (leaf and bug). I made those last year for the 100 day challenge. I also always add some stamped words (stamp by Rubber Dance). And here is the video:

Come back next week for another take and share! Until then, happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 29/2025 – photo

Hello and happy Thursday! This is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge number 29: photo.

I used some vintage looking collage papers again (gifted to me by Yuna from Australia). In addition I added a strip of the black and white flower paper – a carry-over-item from my last deck card.

The DIY vintage ticket is done with Rubber Dance stamps and Distress Inks. I added a date stamp (my constant) to it. The photo is a vintage one of Ava Gardner and I attached it onto the card with a stapler. The words are stamped with a Rubber Dance stamp. And here is the video:

Today´s deck card is a pretty simple one. I didn´t want to add much and instead highlight the photo more. See you next week with another one!
Happy crafting,
