CARDS, RUBBER DANCE ART STAMPS, TUTORIALS

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!

Full Deck Challenge 16/2025 – sewing

Leave a comment

Hello everyone and happy Friday! I´m a bit late with sharing these, but the weather has been so nice lately and gardening has taken some of my time.

However, here is the ShanoukiArt Full Deck Challenge Nr. 16. The theme was “sewing”. Which I did with my sewing machine. You must know I am not “friends with” my sewing machine, so this is always an accomplishment, when I manage to sew.

For this deck card I again used collage papers gifted to me by Yuna on the background. I also added a small piece of a music paper that had some misting on it. Then on top some sewing and random date stamping (my constant). On top of that a paper doll by Tim Holtz with wings. The wings are done with a Rubber Dance stamp (Butterflies and Moths) on a gelli paper. The rhinestone heart got some Copic marker on it (to change the color).

And here is the star-to-finish video:

Next one will be “blending”. I still need to figure out what I am going to do for that ;-). See you next week!

CARDS, RUBBER DANCE ART STAMPS

Cards with Doodle Flowers with a twist – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello lovelies! I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog today with two mixed media cards using the Doodle Flowers stamps with a little twist. This is one of my first Rubber Dance stamp sets that I absolutely fell in love with. I wanted to use the flowers in a different way and created pink toned “skirts” for the paper dolls with them. For these cards I used the Doodle Flowers stamps with pink toned Distress Inks and Marks 2 and Cross It stencils with Distress Oxide Inks. You will find a video tutorial at the bottom of this post.

Unfortunately the Doodle Flowers in the Clear Version are almost sold out, but they are still be available as a rubber stamp set. It’s linked at the bottom of this post. And I’m sure they will be a follow-up clear stamps set in the future, with some brand new flowers 😉 !!!

Here is how I created the cards: I first added two pink Distress Ink tones onto a craft sheet and sprayed them with water. Then I wiped the paper onto the wet ink. After the paper was dry I stamped several images of Doodle Flowers onto the paper and fussy cut them (only the flower buds). Next I took an old music note sheet (if you don’t have music paper you can also use the Rubber Dance music stamp to make some on your own), misted it with light blue and green spray ink and after that added stencil marks with grey, green and blue toned Distress Oxide Inks and a blending brush onto the music sheet.

Next I cut the stenciled backgroud paper into a right size, adhered it onto a card base and then took a paper doll and added that as a centerpiece to the card with a skirt arranged from the fussy cut Doodle Flowers stamp images. Finally, I typed a sentiment with my old typewriter and adhered it onto each card. If you don’t own a typerwriter, you might like the Rubber Dance Mix A Sentiment stamp set!

Here is a start-to-finish video of how I created the cards:

I hope you liked this little card inspiration!
Happy crafting,
