Clean and simple collage paper Christmas cards – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog again today with another clean and simple card Christmas card share. For these cards I used some gelli printed collage papers, the Xmas Trees 2 stencil and the Kartengrüße stamp set. For the collage paper I had used the Textured Xmas Trees 2 and the Mix It Up 4 stamp set.

I basically combined the ideas from my previously shared Christmas cards here. I die cut the collage paper with the Textured Xmas Trees 2 pattern on it with circle die cut dies. And the Mix It Up 4 set circle stamp patterned paper is traced thru the Xmas Trees 2 stencil and then fussy cut. I then adhered both pieces to a white card base, added a sentiment stamp with the Kartengrüße stamp set and some golden pigment droplets here and there.

For the second card I basically did the same, except the stamped sentiment is on the card base, not on the collage paper. Also the golden pigment droplets are on the collage paper and the stamped stars are colored with the same golden color. For stamping those I used the Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set.

Here is one more bonus card, for which I just added some stenciling with the Ornament 1 stencil as a background and arranged some collage paper trees on top. I had some left over and didn´t want them to go to waste.

Have fun creating some of your own!!

Clean and simple Christmas bauble cards with Distress Oxide Inks

Leave a comment

Hello, I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog today with a clean and simple card idea. I used the Ornament 1 stencil and the Kartengrüße stamp set to make these cards.

I started by inking a piece of white cardstock with “kitsch flamingo” Distress Oxide ink. next I placed the Ornament 1 stencil on top of the inked paper and applied a darker red tone, “candied apple”, thru the stencil onto paper.

After that I die cut the paper into two different sized circles. I then inked the edges with the darker red toned ink and added some golden dots with a water brush onto them.

Then I just drew some strings for the baubles to hang onto the card base and adhered the circles on place. After that I stamped a sentiment with black ink onto the cards using the Kartengrüße stamp set.

I also added some golden droplets to the card bases for additional interest in the end just for fun. Here are the finished cards:

I hope you enjoy this card idea and make some Christmas bauble cards yourself.
Happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 38/2025 – chaos

Leave a comment

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,

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
