Monochromatic card set with Distress Inks and Rainbows #2 stencil – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello everyone! It´s my turn to share an inspirational project over at Rubber Dance blog today. I am up with a monochromatic card set. I wanted to create a card background using the Rainbows #2 stencil and that is how this idea started. In addition I used the Mixed Sentiments #1 and added collage fodder elements I had previously created with Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil and Butterflies and Moths, as well as Doodle Flowers 2 stamp sets.

I started by taking a mixed media paper and cutting it into smaller sizes. Then I placed the Rainbows #2 stencil on top of the paper and applied Crystal Gel with a palette knife thru the stencil onto the surface. I did two surfaces and let them dry properly – make sure they are really dry – before moving to the next step.

Next I took a blue and green Distress Ink (twisted citron & peacock feathers) and applied those onto the stenciled surface. After that I took a baby wipe and wiped any residue ink off from the crystal gel-treated areas. After that I took double sided adhesive tape and adhered the inked and stenciled paper onto a white card base. I then decorated the card with collage fodder leaves and butterflies and stamped and fussy cut a sentiment from Mixed Sentiments #1 stamp set. For finishing touches I added some green adhesive half pearls to the butterfly.

I did the exact same steps on the pink and orange toned card, but I used spiced marmalade and picked raspberry Distress Inks on the background. The collage fodder is done using the Butterflies and Moths stamp set and the Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil. You can find tutorials to the collage fodder bits here, here and here.

And here is the full start-to-finish video for more details. Hope you like it!

I hope I could inspire you to try out Rubber Dance stencils with clear texture paste and inks. It´s a lot of fun!

Happy crafting,

Spring Art Journal page with tinted modeling paste and stencils – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to share a. project over at Rubber Dance blog again. Today I am sharing a page from my art journal that started from a mark making play and ended up being a bright spring themed page. I used the Dotted 1, Organic 4 and Marks 3 stencils and the Mix It Up 5 stamp set to create the page. I also added previously made collage fodder bits done with Doodle Flowers 2 and Butterflies and Moths stamp sets.

This is how my creating process went. I always have a journal close to me, when creating on other projects. That way I can wipe and add random layers to my journal with residue paints, inks and pastes. In the first photo you can see I added some residue pink paint, then some black mark making to the journal page. Next I mixed some modeling paste with neon pink and yellow paint and sky blue paint together and applied those onto the background thru the previously mentioned stencils. I love to tint my white modeling paste with acrylic paints to create different colors.

While the paste was drying, I took a pink tag and stamped some Distress Oxide Ink (kitsch flamingo) with one of the Mix It Up 5 stamp set stamps. Then I grabbed a small piece of residue gelli printed paper, stamped with the same set and black ink some images onto the piece and adhered it onto the tag. After that I arranged a cluster of leaves and flowers to the tag and cut off any residue along the edges.

After that I adhered the tag onto the journal page, created a sentiment with sticker and paper alphas and added some Gloss Spray splatters for finishing touches (Medieval).

Have you tried creating your own tinted modeling pastes? It´s a fun way to add some interest to any project (journal, wall art, card background). It also adds a nice texture and depth to a project. Wishing you a fun time playing with stencils and modeling paste!! If you missed how the fodder was done, you can watch the videos and the photo tutorial here, here and here.

Happy creating!

“Flower bouquet” fodder card set – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to share a project over at the Rubber Dance blog and I am up with a fodder bouquet card set. I have made piles and piles of fodder and gelli prints recently and what for? For projects like this. I used the Mix It Up 5, Mixed Sentiments 1, Pencil Marks 8 and the Doodle Flowers 2 stamp set with the Wheels stencil on this project.

I love making leaf and flower fodder. Creating random colored backgrounds and stamping onto them and only when fussy cutting the images, to discover the beauty of every single piece on it´s own, is something very exciting.

So for these cards I used some recently made flower and butterfly fodder as well as gelli printed backgrounds. Have you tried making some yourself? It is a very inspiring process, so I truly recommend, you try it out.

Here is a video on how I built the cards together:

And I´ve prepared 2 different short videos on some fodder making, just for fun:

I hope you enjoy this card idea and the videos and that they inspire you to play with Rubber Dance products!! Have fun!

Stenciled Art Journal Page – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello! It´s my turn today over at Rubber Dance blog and I am up with a heavily layered, stenciled art journal page share today. For this page I used the Dotted 1, Big Ovals, Cross It, Wheels, Stars 1 and Marks 2 stencils. There are also some details added with the Doodle Flowers 2 stamp set.

I started by applying heavy body paint in “olive” with a palette knife onto the background. On top of that I used a foam brush to dab “sand” and “apricot” tones thru Big Ovals and Dotted 1 stencils. After that I outlined some of the dabbed paint “circles” with a black pen. Next I took a piece of a old dictionary book and wripped and glued strips of paper onto the background.

Next I wiped some “aloe” tone with my fingers onto the wripped dictionary page pieces to blend them into the background. I then added a layer of “tangelo” with a palette knife onto the page. Next I took the Cross It stencil out and added some white paint thru it onto the orange areas for contrast.

After that I took a black with glimmer mist misted tag out and again dabbed the “lemon” paint onto the tag thru the Wheels stencil. After that I put some “lime” toned paint onto the palette knife and wiped some of it onto the tag. The next layer was done using “stoked” tone and the Marks 2 stencil. I then added the last bits of “turquoise” paint with a palette knife thru the Stars 1 stencil onto the tag.

I sprinkled some Gloss Spray in “turquoise” for interest onto the art journal page. I then glued the stenclied black tag onto the art journal page. After that I added a misted doilie for decoration and created a cluster of leaves with “Doodle Flowers 2″ leaves next to it. There is a video at the end of this post on how I created the leaves.

I finished the page with a paper doll by Tim Holtz and some black and white alphabet stickers. Here is the start-to-finish video for further information:

And this is the video on how I made the leaves fodder:

I hope I could inspire you today. Happy creating!
