Hello lovelies! I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog today with two mixed media cards using the Doodle Flowers stamps with a little twist. This is one of my first Rubber Dance stamp sets that I absolutely fell in love with. I wanted to use the flowers in a different way and created pink toned “skirts” for the paper dolls with them. For these cards I used the Doodle Flowers stamps with pink toned Distress Inks and Marks 2 and Cross It stencils with Distress Oxide Inks. You will find a video tutorial at the bottom of this post.

Unfortunately the Doodle Flowers in the Clear Version are almost sold out, but they are still be available as a rubber stamp set. It’s linked at the bottom of this post. And I’m sure they will be a follow-up clear stamps set in the future, with some brand new flowers 😉 !!!

Here is how I created the cards: I first added two pink Distress Ink tones onto a craft sheet and sprayed them with water. Then I wiped the paper onto the wet ink. After the paper was dry I stamped several images of Doodle Flowers onto the paper and fussy cut them (only the flower buds). Next I took an old music note sheet (if you don’t have music paper you can also use the Rubber Dance music stamp to make some on your own), misted it with light blue and green spray ink and after that added stencil marks with grey, green and blue toned Distress Oxide Inks and a blending brush onto the music sheet.

Next I cut the stenciled backgroud paper into a right size, adhered it onto a card base and then took a paper doll and added that as a centerpiece to the card with a skirt arranged from the fussy cut Doodle Flowers stamp images. Finally, I typed a sentiment with my old typewriter and adhered it onto each card. If you don’t own a typerwriter, you might like the Rubber Dance Mix A Sentiment stamp set!

Here is a start-to-finish video of how I created the cards:

I hope you liked this little card inspiration!
Happy crafting,
