Hello and happy Thursday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt “Full Deck Challenge 2025”, number 38/2025: chaos.
For this one I again used Yuna´s collage papers that she gifted to me. This time I chose bold and colorful/wild ones). And as a carry-over-item another collage paper with a face on it. I only wripped off the eyes, mouth and nose and adhered them onto the deck card very randomly.
On top I added some stenciling with a marker using this Rubber Dance stencil. After that I stamped with black ink and this Rubber Dance stamp on top. I tried to keep everything very chaotic (lots going on here and there). I colored the eyes with Neocolor II crayon to make them stand out better. My constant is on the background (a date stamp). And I finished the deck card off with this Rubber Dance sentiment stamp set words.
Here is the process video:
See you again next week with another take! Happy crafting, xx, Sanna
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.
