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!

CARDS, MIXED MEDIA, RUBBER DANCE ART STAMPS

Cards with bold backgrounds – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, today I have a card set share up that feature very bold backgrounds. They don´t need much on top as they really stand out on their own. For these cards I used the Loose Florals 2024 and the Doodle Flowers 2 stamp sets as well as the Kartengrüße set for stamped sentiments.

The background papers are from a gelli printing session where I made my own collage papers using strong colors and the Loose Florals 2024 stamp set. For this set I wripped the paper on one side to create an irregular border and adhered the paper onto a card base. On top I added something light – a lightly inked collage fodder flower in pink. To go with it, I added a few enamel hearts and a stamped sentiment along the cards edge.

On the second set I have a even more distressed look going on on the background. Thus I left the backgorunds full and didn´t wrip the paper. I love the peeled paint look of the paper. It makes it seem like vintage wallpaper in layers. For these cards I again used the same principle. A bold background paper paired with a single flower as a focal point.

Here I added some faux stitching around the edges with a white gel pen. Some glitter glue for detail onto the flowers and a stamped sentiment on a residue piece that has the same tone like some areas on the background piece.

And all these cards are flat and thus very easy to put into mail. Who else loves creating collage papers with stamps and a gelli plate?
