Rubber Dance – gelli printed collage paper tags

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, I´m here today with a set of gelli printed collage paper tags. I´ve used the Leaves #2, Ornament 1, Dotted 1 and Organic 4 stencils to make the gelli printed collage papers. For the stamping and fodder I used the Stitching Borders, Collage Leaves 3 and Doodle Flowers 2 stamp sets.

I started by using a Gelli Arts mini printing square plate for creating the stenciled images as well as the stenciled and transfer image ones. After creating plenty of collage paper squares, I chose the ones that worked the best together and adhered those to tags. On top I then added a some stamping with black ink and the Stitching Border set. On top I then added some collage fodder leaves (made with Doodle Flowers 2 set). For finishing touches I added some stamped sentiments from the Collage Leaves 3 stamp set.

For dimension and interest I also adhered a few wood veneer pieces from my stash and added some ribbon to the tags.

On how to make those gelli printed papers, there are plenty of videos available on the interned. I made a few here too. Hope you get inspired to try out making your own collage papers with Rubber Dance stencils and a gel plate. Have fun!

Rubber Dance – stamped mixed media birthday cards

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to share a project over at Rubber Dance today. I am up with a set of cards, created using some of the new Rubber Dance stamps. For this card set I used the: Collage Leaves 3, Stitching Borders and Kartengrüße stamp sets. My starting point was a previously made, gelli printed collage paper. For that I had used the Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil.

I started by cutting the previously made collage paper (gelli print with Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil) in two halves. After that I took an additional residue collage paper piece and stamped with black ink and Collage Leaves 3 onto it. Next I fussy cut the images.

After that I arranged a German birthday sentiment onto an acrylic block and stamped with orange and green Distress Oxide inks onto the background collage paper. Then I added some golden pigment splatters to the backgrounds. Next I took the fussy cut leaves and adhered them onto the card bases. For finishing touches I added a stamped birthday sentiment in black and some stitching around the edges with brown Distress Oxide Ink.

Here is the process video for you to watch:

I hope you get inspired and create fun, stamped cards with the new Rubber Dance stamps!

Happy crafting,

“Note to self” Art Journal Page process – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to share a project over at Rubber Dance blog today. I am up with an art journal page share. For this page I used the Ornament 1 and Mini Textures 1 stencils. For stamping I used Doodle Flowers 2, Collage Leaves 3 and A to Z stamp sets. I wanted to create an inspirational page and this is what I came up with:

My starting point was the inked Ornament 1 stencil which I sprayed with water mist and then pressed onto the journal page. Next I blended two tones of pink Distress Oxide Ink around the edges and white areas. After that I took the darker pink tone and stamped some leaf patterns onto the inked area, followed with light grey stamping.

I had a green toned collage paper ready and stamped with Collage Leaves 3 stamp set and black ink some leaves onto it. After that I fussy cut them and was ready to adhere them to my journal page. On top of the leaves I added a few Doodle Flowers 2 collage fodder images that I had previously made.

Then I decorated with leaves with golden pigment details. Next I stamped some inspirational words into the middle with the Collage Leaves 3 stamp set. For finishing touches I added a hand stamped title using the rest of my collage paper and the A to Z stamp set.

I also recorded a process video for you to watch – hope you enjoy!

Have fun creating!!

Full Deck Challenge 46/2025 – fairy

Leave a comment

Hello! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge number 46: fairy.

For this one I used the butterfly stamped old book paper bits as a carry-over-item. To those I added some gelli printed collage papers in turquoise and some Dina Wakley heavy body paint in turquoise. After that I added my constant – the date stamp.

After that I added some yellow Dina Wakley Gloss Spray and stamped leaves with this Rubber Dance stamp to the background. As a focal point I added a Tim Holtz paper doll and fairy wings from a Rubber Dance stamp set. I added some Stickles for shine to them, too. The sticker words are by Tim Holtz.

Here is the step-by-step video:

See you again next week with another take!

Masked card background with Rubber Dance products and Distress Oxide Inks

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my time to share a project over at Rubber Dance today. I am up with a masked card background idea and step-by-step tutorial. I used the new Sketchy Leaves 7 and Collage Leaves 3 for this card project.

I had a pile of previously made collage papers and I chose one of those as my starting point. The Sketchy Leaves 7 stencil pack has these lovely leaf masks in it and I wanted to use them to create some more depth to the background paper.

I started by placing the masks onto the paper and dabbing Distress Oxide Ink aged mahogany ink over them. After finishing this step, I removed the masks and added some water droplets to the paper. This lifted some of the ink off and created more interest. I also wanted the leaf patterns to stand out more from the background, so I outlined them with a black pen.

After finishing this step, I added droplets of golden pigment to the paper for additional shine. Then I just adhered the paper to a card base, added a collage fodder butterfly as a focal point. Next I stamped some sentiments to the leftover collage paper I had started the process with with black ink. This way I have the same colors going on the sentiments as well as the masked leaf patterns.

Here is a video step-by-step for more insight:

I hope you enjoy the inspiration and play a little! Have fun!
