Mixed media tag set – Rubber Dance

Hello everyone, I am up over at Rubber Dance blog today with a tag set featuring gelli printed fodder elements. For these tags I used the Butterflies and Moths, Mix A Sentiment 2023 and Loose Florals 2024 stamp sets.

Here is how I created the tags:

I first started by stamping brown Distress Oxide Ink with the Mix A Sentiment 2023 stamp set onto the kraft tags. Next I took black stamp ink and the leaves from the Loose Florals 2024 stamp set and stamped black leaf images onto the tags.

Then I colored the leaf images with glitter brush pens and added some gelli printed strips to the bottom of the tags with some old book page pieces. For the gelli print piece I used the same Loose Florals 2024 stamp set.

After that I added some white gel pen circles to the background for interest and adhered some butterfly fodder and ribbon to the tags.

For finishing touches I added some liquid pearls to the butterflies and attached sticker sentiments to each tag.

Here is also a quick step-by-step to how the butterfly fodder was done:

First create a colorful gelli print. I used three tones of paint and “drew” random scribbles to the paint. Next I stamped “Butterflies and Moths 2024” with black stamp ink onto the gelli print. After that I fussy cut all the images. This way I have plenty of fodder ready for my next projects.

Creating the fodder and tags was so much fun. I hope you give it a try! While at it, make sure to try out different color combinations and patterns. This way you have plenty of material to work with for future projects.

Happy crafting,
Sanna

Mixed media tag set with water mist stamped flower background

Hello everyone, here is another Rubber Dance Art Stamp product inspiration post with a fun step-by-step tag tutorial for today. For these tags I used the “Sketchy Flowers 3” stamp set to create the fun background details and added all kinds of leftover bits from my previous projects to go with them.

Here is how I created the tags:

First I applied Distress Oxide Ink (fossilized amber) with a blending brush onto white tags. Next I attached a flower stamp from the “Sketchy Flowers 3” stamp set onto an acrylic block and gave it a light water mist. Then I pressed the stamp image into the inked areas and repeated the step until I had enough “water stamped images” on the background.

Next I took out some leftover papers (all from my previous projects shared here on the blog), plus a misted blue music note paper to which I had added some texture paste thru the “Marks 2” stencil. I first fussy cut those papers into size and preferred patterns, then added leftover “Doodle Flowers” on top and adhered the pieces on place. After that I added purple watercolor droplets onto the tags, chose matching ribbons and added some chipboard pieces to finish the tags.

I hope to have inspired you a little to use all leftover pieces for fun smaller projects, so nothing goes to waste! Have fun!
