Hello and happy Sunday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge number 48: dangle.
I used collage papers gifted to me by Yuna on the background again. In addition I took some gelli printed collage papers (done with Cross It stencil by Rubber Dance) and mixed those together. On top some Neocolor II crayon and my constant – a date stamp.
As a focal point I used a Rubber Dance butterfly and some Tonic Studios Nuvo Drops. My dangle is a bell and a pom pom ribbon.
Here is the process video:
See you in a few days with number 49!! Happy crafting, xxx, Sanna
Hello! This is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 45/2025: lace.
I used collage papers gifted to me by Yuna as my carry-over item. To those I added some old book paper bits, stamped with Rubber Dance butterfly stamps. On top of that I added some Dina Wakley heavy body paint with a palette knife. On top of that my constant, a date stamp.
Next I added Midnight Dina Wakley Gloss Spray droplets and the DIY lace. I made it with lace cream and a silicone mold. On top of it I adhered a collage butterfly (Rubber Dance). For finishing touches I added word stickers by Tim Holtz.
Here is the video step-by-step:

Hello, here is a set of stenciled Xmas cards I created using Rubber Dance products: Dotted stencil, Kartengrüße stamp set and Xmas Trees 2 stencil.
I used Distress Oxide in two tones for the background with the Dotted stencil. I started by inking the whole background with the first ink layer. After that I placed the Dotted stencil on top and added the second blue tone thru the stencil.
Next I took some Gansai Tambi Starry Colors golden pigment and added droplets to the background. After that I grabbed some Graphic45 Christmas papers and drew along the stencil tree patterns of the Xmas Trees 2 stencil with a black pen. Then I fussy cut the images and adhered them to the card.
For the sentiment I used the Kartengrüße stamp set with black ink. Next I stamped some stars to the treetops (Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set) and colored the stars with golden pigment. For finishing touches I also added some golden dots to the blue toned, fussy cut, trees. The ink tones I used for the backgrounds are: peacock feathers, speckled egg and salvaged patina.
Here is the video step-by-step:
I hope you like the card idea and create some fun stenciled Xmas cards too! Happy crafting, xx, Sanna
How about putting some of the collage paper piles we all have into good use and create some Christmas cards with them? Here are some I did:
I have a glitter paste stenciled background paper on these cards (made with Tonic Studios paste and Stars 1 Rubber Dance stencil). On top I´ve added some on collage paper stamped (Textured Xmas Trees 2) trees. Finished with Kartengrüße stamp set sentiments. The green tree was stamped on plain paper and then colored with Edding glitter brush pens.
For the second set I´ve used the Marks 3 and Marks 2 stencil with a Gelli Arts gel plate for the backgrounds. On top I´ve used the Xmas Trees 1 stencil with Tonic Studios glitter paste and the sentiment is again done with Kartengrüße stamp set. I really like these bright colors! Who says Xmas cards can´t be bold in color?!
And for the final set I´ve used the Organic 3 and Cross It stencil with a gel plate on the background. The trees (Textured Xmas Trees 2) got stamped onto another gelli printed collage paper and fussy cut. I´ve added some glitter pen details to the slimline card´s trees and the smaller card has some Tonic Studio Nuvo Drops as decor. Sentiments on both were stamped with the Kartengrüße stamp set.
Have fun creating some Xmas cards with collage papers, stamps and stencils!!! xxx, Sanna

Hi there! This is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge number 44: window.
I used an exacto knife to cut a window onto the deck card. I then placed a vintage photo behind the window. After that I added some of the collage papers that I also used on my previous deck card (carry-over-item) and added some additional ones. All gifted to me by Yuna from Australia.
After adhering the collage papers on place, I added my constant, a date stamp here and there. After that some white modeling paste thru a Rubber Dance stencil. After that some Dina Wakley Gloss Spray as detail.
For finishing touches I added Tim Holtz word stickers and two red buttons for the window.
Here is the start-to-finish-video:

Hello, it´s my turn to share a Rubber Dance project again. I am sharing a set of Christmas cards this time. I used the Xmas Trees 2 and the Stars 1 stencil for these cards. The idea is very simple, you just need some gelli printed collage papers as a starting point.
I have quite a pile of collage papers that I´ve created with Rubber Dance stamps and stencils during the past year. This pile is a great starting point to any kind of project, basically. Here I´ve used gelli printed images that I created using the Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set. Next I took a glitter paste and applied it thru the Stars 1 stencil onto the paper.
After cutting the paper into size, I wripped the bottom part of the paper. The “unclean” line add more interest to the card.
After that I took another collage paper (created with Marks 2 and Marks 3 stencils and bold colors) and placed the Xmas Trees 2 stencil on top. I then traced the tree patterns with a black pen onto the paper and fussy cut the trees.
I then took a piece of white paper and stamped Christmas wishes with black ink and Kartengrüße stamp set. Cut into size and adhered to the card and the card set was done in no time. Here is step-by-step video, too:
Have fun creating with collage papers and adding details with stencils! xx, Sanna
Hello, this is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 2025, number 43: circles.
I again used Yuna´s collage papers and my carry over item – bits of old book paper – on the background. On top I mixed white modeling paste with Dina Wakley heavy body paint in turquoise and stenciled it thru a Rubber Dance circle stencil onto the deck card.
In between the stenciled pattern, I stamped my constant, the date stamp images. For decor I added a premade collage flower (stamp by Rubber Dance) and some word stickers (Tim Holtz).
Here is the start-to-finish-video:
See you again next week for another FDC take! xx, Sanna
Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge 42/2025 – feathers.
I started by using the plain orange paper (used it on my previous deck card too) on the background with an old book paper scrap. On top of that I added some Distress Oxide ink in walnut stain thru the new Rubber Dance stencil “Mini Textures 1“. Next I added a layer of Dina Wakley Gloss Spray in “marine”.
The feathers that I used as a focal point are from the previous deck cards collage paper bit. So in a way the feathers are also a carry over item. My constant is a date stamp. I also again added some stamped words and a button to finish the deck card. Here is the process video:
See you again next week with another take! xx, Sanna
Hello and happy Sunday! I am a bit late posting this one, but we had been on a lovely vacation and then work got the best of me.. Anyways, here is my take on the 41/2025 FDC for “zig zag”.
I got really lucky for this theme, because I had just received my Rubber Dance order in the mail and it had this new stamp set, full of zig zag patterns!! So I immediately wanted to use this for the deck card. I started with some of the paper from my previous deck card (but only used the plain orange bits and saved the feathers). To that I added some additional collage paper in red (gifted to me by Yuna) and some plain orange paper. After adhering them to the deck card – which I by the way always sand – I then added some black stamping with the Rubber Dance Stitching Borders stamp set. After that I grabbed my constant – the date stamp for more detail.
I had saved some tea bag packaging (looove the inside of it!!!) and fussy cut the flower as a centerpiece. Added some yarn to go with the flower and a button into the middle. Then some Rubber Dance stamped words and the deck card was done. Here is also the video for you to watch. Enjoy!
See you next week with another FDC deck card take! xx, Sanna
