Hello everyone and happy Monday! I have a clean and simple wedding card share up for you today.
I mounted the heart foiled white cardstock piece onto a pink toned card base. But before doing that, I mounted a pink patterned paper behind the die cut heart area. I then added a 49andMarket rub-on sentiment to the pink heart area. Next I decorated the heart with half pearls and paper flowers in one corner. I also added some pearly leaves next to the paper flower for decor.
I really like the effect the foiled heart paper creates. And the focal point without any other details around makes the card look more elegant.
Hello and happy Sunday! Here is a slimline card I created for a 60th birthday.
I´ve used patterned paper from my older stash with some lace ribbon and a chipboard border image from back in the day. Also added as a centerpiece is a paper flower in bright red and a ephemera piece to adhere the Thickers foam number onto. I´ve outlined the card with a white gel pen and finished the card off with a happy birthday sentiment by Rubber Dance (this set).
Also, on the close-up photos you can see some tiny white flowers here and there on the background. They are older rub-ons from my stash and I have added some half pearls into the middle for some extra texture.
I like how this turned out! Hope you get inspired! xxx, Sanna
Hello everyone and happy Friday! I have a clean and simple wedding card share up for you today.
I mounted the dry embossed, glossy/shiny white paper onto a piece of peach toned cardstock. But before that, I mounted a rose image behind the die cut heart area. Before adhering the paper on place I took a piece of white ribbon and added a 49andMarket rub-on sentiment to the ribbon. I then decorated it with a golden enamel heart. To add some more golden details, I added some half pearls around the die cut area.
The card is very simple in design and has plenty of white space in it. I love how elegant the shimmery dry embossed paper makes the card look.
I stared by wripping the floral background paper quite randomly and adhering it to the card base. That way I had some white space left to adhere the Floral Magic clear sticker to the white space underneath. I then fussy cut and adhered the Floral Parade Ephemera Cut-Out on place and added some outlining with a black marker.
I first cut the dark green paper into size, then adhered it on place. After that I fussy cut and adhered the Nostalgia #1 Ephemera Cut-Out as a centerpiece. I then adhered the Nostalgic #1 clear sticker onto white cardstock, then cut that into size and adhered it onto the card base. I then decorated the card with a few enamel elements (arrow and hearts) and added faux stitching around the edges with a white gel pen.
For this card I just adhered the Old Letters Pocket Backdrops paper onto the card base, then added the Flowers and Coffee Focal Front element. After that I fussy cut the croissant from the All Things Coffee Ephemera sheet and adhered it next to the coffee cup. The clear sticker is adhered on white cardstock, then cut into size and adhered to the card. The only “old” product added to this card is the brown Distress Oxide Ink around the edges of the paper.
Here is a quick peek into Flowers + Coffee Focal Fronts:

I placed the stencil directly onto the card base, applied various tones of Distress Oxide inks thru the stencil pattern to create a bold background. Next I colored the cupcake with alcohol markers and adhered it onto the card base. Finally, I stamped the Sweet Cravings set´s sentiments directly onto the card with black ink.
I simply stenciled the Henna Pattern directly onto the card base by moving it around and creating a full surface random pattern.

I started by placing the Modern Envelopes stencil onto the Old Letter Pocket Backdrop paper and stenciling with brown Distress Oxide Ink thru it.

In addition, I stamped a sentiment with the Feathery stamp set and brown ink and adhered it to the card. After that I took a white card base, inked the corners all around with brown ink and then adhered the paper on place.

I first placed the Profile 2 stencil onto a white card base, then directly inked with various yellow and pink/red and brown toned Distress Oxide Inks thru the stencil creating a multi-colored face image. I also used the same ink tones to add some random stamping to the hair using the Mixed Media Grunge stamp set. I then went on to outline the image with a black pen along the stencil lines. After that I used a light green Distress Oxide Ink tone with the Henna Pattern stencil to add details to the background. Finally, I finished the card with a Sweet Cravings set stamped sentiment.
Here is peek into the new stencils:

I started by adding light pastel Distress Paint tones onto the background and covering the page with them first. Next I took some texture paste and darker red, green and orange Distress Paint and mixed those together. Then I took the Rainbows 2 stencil and applied the tinted pastes onto the journal page thru the stencil.
Next I added some marks with Neocolor II´s onto the empty areas. I drew random patterns here and there. After that I took black stamp ink and made marks with Pencil Marks 8 stamp here and there. I then wiped some white Distress Paint over some areas with a palette knife.
Next I took a piece of old music paper out, stamped leaves from Pencil Marks 8 stamp set onto it with black ink and fussy cut the images. After that texture pasted areas were dry, I stamped some text with black ink onto those areas using the Mix It Up 5 stamp.
And of course I again had to add some ink splatters (I love using those!). I used Gloss Sprays for this purpose. Then I arranged the stamped, and fussy cut leaves into a cluster and took a previously made mushroom image to accompany them. I added some neon yarn around the mushroom and adhered a bright red button next to it.
Now that the focal point was done, I colored some areas around the edges with a black marker to add more contrast to the page. After that I did some mark making with a white gel pen onto them for additonal interest.
For finishing touches I added a sticker sentiment as a title. Some more Neocolor here and there, as well as pink Gloss Spray splatters, and the page was done.
Here is the full process video for you to watch:
I hope you like the ideas incorporated into this page. Have fun creating! xx, Sanna
I first inked the Old Letters Pocket Backdrop paper with two different pink tones of Distress Oxide inks. Then I added some stamping on top with Mixed Media Grunge stamps. After that I inked the edges with brown Distress Oxide Ink for depth. The paper is mounted on a pink card base. I then colored the cupcake image with alcohol markes and stamped the sentiment with Sweet Cravings stamp set. I mounted the image and the sentiment on place and added some garn underneath and that was it.

Hello, it´s Sanna here today with a layer stenciled art journal page share. For this project I used the following products: Organic 4 and Mini Textures 1 stencils as well as the Sketchy Leaves 5 stencil in the focal point cluster. The stamps used as a further layer and focal point feature following sets: Mix It Up 7, Mix It Up 4, Collage Leaves 3 and Mix It Up 6.
I started with the following steps:
I first inked a lighter toned layer thru the above mentioned stencil onto the page, then slightly moved the stencil to create a 3D-effect and inked over the area with a similar tone, but slithly darker. That creates this really fun effect.
Next I took a black stamp ink and stamped some details with the Mix It Up 4 stamp set.
Followed with further stamping with the Mix It Up 6 and Mix It Up 7 stamp sets.
I also added some asemic writing to the background before creating a cluster of elements as a focal point. The blue collage fodder element is a previous make with Sketchy Leaves 5 and Brushos (see details here). The leafy flower is stamped on a music note paper with black ink (using Collage Leaves 3) and then fussy cut. Finally the sentiment was stamped on an old book page with the Collage Leaves 3 stamp set anf fussy cut to fit the page composition.
I also added some “turquoise” and “medieval” Gloss Spray droplets as detail and also added some stamped eyes in the process. They are from the Mix It Up 7 stamp set.
I love layering stencils and adding fun details to art journal pages with them. Then mixing some stamping with various stamp sets for contrast make creating art journal pages so much fun! I hope I could inspire you all abit with this page.
Have fun creating with Rubber Dance products! xxx, Sanna
