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,

50th birthday card in pink tones

Leave a comment

Hello everyone! Today I am sharing a 8 x 6 inch card. I created this one for a work colleagues 50th birthday. She looooves all things pink, therefore the color choices.

I used all kinds of things from my own older stash for this card. I have a thing for polka dotted papers and have been “collecting” them for years. This paper was just perfect for the card. I used a pink cardstock as a base, folded it into size (8×6 inches). Next I cut the polka dot paper into size (slightly smaller than the base).

I then die cut with a Elizabeth Craft Designs circle die onto the polka dot paper, adhered it onto the base and started decorating. The flowers are from my older flower stash and added into a cluster. The numbers are Thickers in white.

The vellum butterfly is Jenni Bowlin Studio (very old stash) and the half pearls are by Kaisercraft. All older product from my stash. The stamped sentiment is by Klartext stamps. The recipient loved her card, so mission accoplished :).

Thanks for stopping my and taking a look! I will be sharing more new projects the next weeks, so make sure to come and take a look!
Happy scrapping!

Stamped Baby-card set with Rubber Dance stamps

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, here is another Rubber Dance project share. I am up with a baby girl and baby boy card set . For these cards I used the Textured Birds 2 and A to Z stamp sets with pink and light blue stamp inks and Neocolor II crayons.

For these very easy-to-do cards you will need the following steps:

  1. Start a light colored polka dotted patterned paper and cut it into a size to fit the card base.
  2. For the Baby Girl card, pick a stamp ink in light pink tone and start by stamping the letters for baby girl onto the circles. Next grab a heart stamp from the Textured Birds 2 stamp set and stamp the other circles with hearts. Use the same stamp ink.
  3. Ink around the edges of the paper for more depth.
  4. Using black waterproof stamp ink, stamp a bird onto white cardstock. Color the bird with Neocolor II crayons and a water tank brush. Use similar pink tones like on the background.
  5. Fussy cut the bird and adhere to the card.
  6. Now repeat same steps but for a baby boy card. Use stars and hearts here for the background (Textured Birds 2 stamp set). Otherwise just repeat previous steps.

These cards are very fast and easy to make and you don´t have to be talented in coloring images either. I hope to have inspired you with this simple baby-card idea!
Happy crafting,

Stamped card background card set – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to hare some Rubber Dance inspiration today. I created another card set and tutorial share. For this card I used only one stamp set – the Mix It Up 7.

I started by applying Distress Oxide Inks in yellow, pink and light green tones with a blending brush onto a piece of white cardstock.

After that I chose stronger Distress Oxide Ink colors for my second layer (blues, greys, browns and greens). I randomly stamped with various images from the same stamp set onto the background. I also changed the ink color every time I changed to another stamp image.

Next I took the wings and flowers from the same stamp set and stamped with black stamp ink onto a piece of white cardstock. Then I fussy cut the images.

Finally I glued everything onto a white card base. The black and white images formed the focal point. For finishing touches I also added some Stickles to glimmer, like seen on this photo.

Here is a video on the full process for you to watch:

I had so much fun making these card backgrounds. I hope I could inspire you to grab a stamp set and make some fun backgrounds! Have fun!

Shimmer Powder Background with Loose Florals 2024 card set – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, I am up over at Rubber Dance blog today with a set of cards created using the Loose Florals 2024 stamp set with embossing powder and Shimmer Powders. I created a fun background with those for the collage fodder cluster decorated cards.

I love creating my own “patterned paper” backgrounds for cards and other projects. This is one way of doing that: getting a stamp set out, some white embossing powder and two tones of Shimmer Powder. Letting the color spread on it´s own on paper creates interesting color concentrations and shades and makes every background unique.

After creating the background, I cut it into a right size and adhered it onto a white card base. For decoration I didn´t want to add too much, so I went with a flower cluster from DIY collage fodder pieces I made recently. You can watch the videos on those here, here and here. And here is the video on how I created the card background and finished the cards. Hope you like it!

I hope you´ll give this technique a try!! Happy crafting,

On your confirmation day

Leave a comment

Hello! I have a card share today. It´s a card I made for a family member´s confirmation day celebration.

I used a Sizzix embossing folder on the background with white cardstock and then added some yellow Distress Ink with a blending brush on top. After that I added a layer of Glimmer Mist droplets in yellow.

The white dots on top right corner are Nuvo Drops. The sentiment is written with my old typewriter.

The cross is a very old Sizzix die cut die. Die cut with white cardstock and has a layer of Stickles on top. I hope the recipient loved her card.

Happy crafting,

Simple one stencil Easter card idea – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog today again. This time with a really simple, but awesome, stenciled Easter card tutorial. You will need the Big Ovals stencil (one of my faves!), two tones of blue Distress Inks, a brown spray ink of some sort, washi tape and a white card base.

This was the kind of idea that when it hit me, I just immediately had to run to my craft room and try it out. And it worked out so great! I have this simple stenciled egg background for my Easter card and it is so easy to make.

First you need a slimline card base in white. Next take two tones of blue Distress Inks (I used tumbled glass and broken china). Start by adhering the card base with washi tape onto your working surface, next adhere the stencil on top and cover all unnecessary circle areas with washi too.

Now apply the lighter blue tone with a blending brush, then go over the lower circle areas with a darker blue tone. After that leave the stencil as is and splatter brown spray ink thru the stencil. Let shortly dry and carefully remove the stencil and the washi tape. Decorate with a “Happy Easter” sentiment, created with golden glitter alpha stickers. How´s that for a fast and easy-to-do Easter card idea with “Robins eggs!? Here is a video for you to watch – hope you like this idea.

You could also make yellow, light pink or light brown eggs. Whatever colors you prefer. I am going to make a few more in different colors for sure.

Happy crafting,

“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!

Butterfly fodder card – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Happy Wednesday! Here is another card share, again created using Rubber Dance stamps. For this one I used the Butterflies and Moths fodder and the Mix It Up 4 stamp set.

I stamped the background pattern with Iced Spruce Distress Oxide ink and the Mix It Up 4 stamp set repeatedly. After that I grabbed the butterfly fodder I had previously created using a gelli printed paper and with black ink stamped and fussy cut butterflies.

You can find the how-to reel for the butterfly fodder on my Instagram under reels.

I adhered the butterflies directly onto the stamped card base, then added a Tim Holtz label sentiment and some Dina Wakley Gloss Spray droplets to the butterfly wings.

Hope this card gives you some spring “feelz”!!! Happy crafting,

From residue gelli prints to card focal points – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn again over at the Rubber Dance blog today and I am up sharing another take on residue gelli prints turned into card focal points. Like on my last post, I created another set of die cut focal points out of residue gelli printing papers. This time using different color combinations and stenciling the card backgrounds, instead of stamping.

I first die cut the residue gelli printing paper with die cut dies into different forms and sizes (banners, circles and squares). I then added some stamping with black stamp ink and some heat embossed details with red embossing ink and the Pencil Marks 8 stamp set.

After that I took the Ornament 1 stencil and added brown Distress Oxide Ink thru it onto the die cut pieces. Then I took the Mix It Up 4 stamp set and added some stamping with blue StazOn ink here and there onto the background.

Next I took out some premade Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil fodder and adhered them onto the die cut pieces. On top of those I added some yarn and a fodder butterfly, created with a gel plate and Butterflies and Moths stamp set.

I also wanted to add a stamped word onto the focal point elements and took out the Mixed Sentiments 1 stamp set. I just used one word from each sentiment, instead of the whole quote.

Instead of adding a stamped background, I chose to stencil Distress Oxide Inks thru the Ornament 1, Dotted 1 and Organic 4 stencils onto the card bases and then adhered the die cut pieces with fodder onto the cards.

I also wanted to add a stamped sentiment to every card, so I used an older German birthday sentiment stamp set from my own stash for stamping them.

After finishing the cards, I added some Gloss Spray droplets to the butterflies wings here and there for additional color and interest.

Here is a video on how I created the Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil fodder that I used on some of the focal point elements:

And here is a short video on the focal point elements and how I put the cards together:

I hope I could inspire you to play with your Rubber Dance stamps and stencils and create colorful cards.

Happy crafting
