Mixed media background Christmas card – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn for a Rubber Dance project share today again. I am up with another Christmas card created with a mixed media background. For this card I used all the gelli printed paper bits I had left over from my previously shared Christmas cards. For details I used the Stars 1 stencil, the Mix It Up 5 stamp set and the Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set.

Here is how I created the card:

I took a piece of printing paper and adhered the leftover gelli prints onto it first. Next I took some white texture paste and applied it onto the background thru the Stars 1 stencil with a palette knife.

Then I wiped some turquoise dimensional pearls here and there onto the background with a palette knife. After that I took some Walnut Stain Distress Oxide Ink and stamped random text images onto the background. The stamp I used was the Mit It Up 5 set.

Next I changed to a black stamp ink and added other stamped imaged to the background from the same stamp set. Then I applied some Gloss Spray splatters in pink and yellow for contrast and let them dry. Finally, I took a piece of white cardstock and stamped a textured tree with black stamp ink onto it. I finished the card off with a stamped sentiment and adhered the tree with 3D foam onto the card.

This is not a typical Christmas card, but will be a perfect one for that one mixed media loving friend. Wishing you a lovely holiday season!

Xmas trees on dry embossed background

Leave a comment

Hello and hapy Monday! Here is yet another Xmas card I created.

I used my old dry embossing folder by Cuttlebug to create this background, then inked over the embossed paper with Distress Oxide ink (Faded Jeans) very lightly. I then added some stenciled and stamped Xmas trees as a centerpiece and stamped a sentiment on an inked piece of paper with 3D foam. The dots are made with golden paint and glitter glue.

The stamps used on the stenciled and outlined trees are by Rubber Dance, as is the stencil used here. For more details see the supply list at the end.

Have a good start into the week!

Slimline Christmas card

Leave a comment

Hello and happy Thursday! Here is another slimline card I created with the Gloss Spray Xmas Trees I made in bulk.

For this one I just took the premade trees and arranged and adhered them onto a slimline card, then added some stamped stars from the same stamp set (see details on the supply list). I used Distress Oxide inks for stamping the stars.

After that I added some datails with Stickles and a stamped sentiment into the middle, adhered with 3D foam tape.

Have a great rest of the week!
Happy crafting,

CAS slimline Christmas cards – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s again my turn to share a project over at Rubber Dance blog. Today I am up with a set of slimline Christmas cards. I used the Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set fo create these cards.

For these cards I used the same basic idea, like on the Textured Mushrooms cards I shared here. This time I took a little different Gloss Spray tones and colored all trees with the sprays instead of leaving some uncolored.

I then stamped onto the colored paper with black stamp ink, let the ink dry and fussy cut the images.

After that I arranged the images onto the slimline card bases and adhered them on place. For finishing touches I added some sentiments from the same stamp set. These cards are very fast an easy to do, so if you a looking for a Christmas card idea that is easy to make – this might be just the one.

Also, if you don´t own Gloss Sprays, you can use acrylic paints, stamp inks or other spray inks for the same idea, just instead of glossy paper, take a paper medium suitable for the ink you are using.

Happy creating,
Sanna

Christmas card with Rubber Dance stencils and stamps and recycled material

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, it´s again my turn to share a project over at the Rubber Dance blog today and I am up with a stenciled Christmas card idea share this time. For this card I used the Xmas Trees 1 stencil and the Mix It Up 5 stamp set with some Distress Oxide ink. I also added some recycled material a a focal point for this card.

Here is how I created this card:

First I took an old map page and placed the Xmas Trees 1 stencil on it. Then I outlined the tree images with a waterproof black pencil onto the map page. Next I took a premade card base and applied some “speckled egg” Distress Oxide Ink onto a stamping block, misted that with water and pressed the ink very randomly onto the card base.

After that I took the Mix It Up 5 stamp set and stamped random text images with the same stamp ink onto the background. After that I fussy cut the “map trees” and adhered them slightly overlappingly onto the card base.

For finishing touches I added a stamped sentiment with “walnut stain” Distress Oxide ink and a sentiment from the Textured Xmas Trees 2 stamp set. I really like how the card turned out with the “map trees” as a focal point.

I hope this stenciling idea inspires you to create fun, stenciled Christmas cards yourself too!

Have fun creating!!

Artist Trading card set with Textured Mushrooms 2 – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn over at the Rubber Dance blog again today and I am sharing a fall themed Artist Trading Card set, created with Textured Mushrooms 2, Mix It Up 6 and Mix a Sentiment 2023 stamp sets as well as the Lattice stencil. As my starting point I again used the Gloss Spray mushrooms from my post back on the 20th of October. I made plenty of them at once and now have fun material to play with.

For this set I started with a red patterned paper piece that I fussy cut into right size. Next I took Dina Wakley paints in tones Mineral and Sage and applied those thru the Lattice stencil onto the papers very randomly. After the paint was dry, I added stamping with the Mit It Up 6 stamp set stamps and brown stamp ink.

For additional interest I added some Gloss Spray splatters in Cheddar and Fuchsia and let the layer dry before attaching some screen prints to the cards with a stapler. Now all I needed to do, was to arrange the Gloss Spray mushrooms onto the cards and adhere them on place. For finishing touches I added some Mix a Sentiment 2023 words to the ATC´s as well as added details to the mushrooms with Posca pens. Finally, to add more depth to the cards, I inked the edges with a brown Distress Oxide ink.

And here is the video start-to-finish for further details and steps – hope you like it and get inspired!

Happy creating!

Art Journal page with stencils, Distress Oxide Inks and Textured Mushrooms 2

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, it´s my turn to share another inspiration project over at Rubber Dance blog today again. This time I have a fun art journal page share with tutorial prepared for inspiration. I used Big Ovals, Textured Mushrooms 2 and Round in Circles on this page and I have a video tutorial up for steps and details.

For this art journal page I used the Gloss Spray painted mushrooms I had created for my previous post and hand plenty left over from. But first I started by creating a fun background with the Big Ovals stencil and Distress Oxide inks in orange and yellow tones. On top of that I have added Gloss Spray splatters in aloe, fuchsia and sand.

Next I´ve arranged the mushrooms in two circles into the middle of the page and added a Distress Oxide ink stamped circle image (from the Round In Circles set) into the very center of the page. Then I stamped some additional circles with brown stamp ink here and there to the background and finished the page off with some medieval Gloss Spray splatters and a fall themed quote.

Here is a video tutorial to give you a better idea of every step of the process – hope you like it!

I really like this stamp set so much – it was so much fun to create something in bright and happy fall colours into my art journal. I hope you get inspired to create too!

Clean and simple card set with Textured Mushrooms 2 and Gloss Sprays

Leave a comment

Hello! It´s project share day over at Rubber Dance blog today for me and I am up with a mushroom themed card set in clean and simple style and slimline format. I used my favorite fall stamp set (Textured Mushrooms 2) on these cards with Gloss Sprays and a typewriter written sentiment.

Here is how I created the cards:

First I took a piece of glossy cardstock and applied several tones of Gloss Spray onto the surface by wiping the color here and there and then adding some droplets on top.

Next I took the Textured Mushrooms 2 stamp set and stamped mushrooms onto the colored paper with black stamp ink. The ink needs to dry a while, because of the glossy surface, but once it is dry, you can continue with the next step.

After that I fussy cut the colorful mushrooms. For these cards I only needed two of them, so I have plenty still to use on future projects.

Then I stamped smaller mushrooms onto a plain slimline card base with black ink and added a colored, fussy cut mushroom as a centerpiece into th middle of the card (adhered with 3D foam tape). Now I just needed to decorate.

I then wrote a sentiment with my old typewriter onto a piece of leftover gelli printed paper, adhered that onto the card and added some Gloss Spray splatters around the mushrooms and the card was done. I did the same steps with both cards.

I hope you get inspired by this easy-to-do idea and make some fun fall-themed cards yourself! If you don´t own Gloss Sprays, try using other spray paints, spray inks or watercolors. They work just as well for this idea. Just replace the glossy paper with a different one. Have fun!

Slimline fall card with Textured Mushrooms 2 – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, I am up over at Rubber Dance blog with a fall themed card tutorial today. I absolutely adore the new Textured Mushrooms 2 stamp set and wanted to create a fun mixed media card featuring them.

Here is how I created the card:

I started off with a premade gelli printed background I had used the Organic 3 stencil on (see the video here). After that I applied Distress Oxide Inks thru Big Ovals (walnut stain ink), Lattice (speckled egg ink) and Scribbles 1 (hickory smoke ink) stencils to create even more layers to the background.

Next I took a premade paper I had inked with blue toned Distress Oxide Inks and Marks 3 stencil and added some abandoned coral, mustard seed and hickory smoke Distress Oxide Inks on top to then stamp some Textured Mushrooms 2 images onto the inked areas. I fussy cut the mushrooms, added details with a white gel pen and used them on the card.

Before adhering the background onto my slimline card base, I added some staping with black ink onto it with the Mix It Up 6 stamp set and on top of all the layers I then added some Gloss Spray droplets in turquoise and Magenta.

For finishing touches I adhered the fussy cut mushrooms to the card and chose two fun sentiments to go with them.

Have you tried adding plenty of little layers on top of each other with stencils? I hope this card inspires you to play with stencils and then grab the gorgeous Textured Mushrooms 2 set and add fabulous mushrooms to your projects! Have fun!!!

Ink blended and stamped clean & simple style cards – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog with a card set tutorial. For these cards I used plenty of Distress Oxide Inks and two various rubber stamp sets (Weed Love & Round in Circles) from the store.

And this is how I created these cards:

First I added some washi tape to create borders for the area I was about to add ink blending onto. I used Distress Oxide Ink tones: saltwater taffy, spiced marmelade and abandoned coral for the first card. After adding the ink onto the card base I used one of the Weed Love stamp set stamps to add some stamping onto the area using black stamp ink.

Next I added another layer of washi tape on top of the ink blended and stamped area to create a border with black ink and one of the Round in Circles stamps. After that I only had to decorate the card with a sentiment (Tim Holtz Quote Chips) and a few enamel stars and the first card was done.

For the second card I used the same steps, but changed the colors to: hickory smoke, salvaged patina and fossilized amber. After that I added a border with the same stamp as on the previous card, except this time I stamped slightly overlappingly to create a different border. Then to decorate the card with Quote Chips and some green enamel dots.

I hope I could inspire you to play with the stamps featured on today´s post and give ink blending and creating clean and simple styled cards a try. Have fun!!!
