Full Deck Challenge 15/2025 – stack it up!

Leave a comment

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is another share from my take on the ShanoukiArt “Full Deck Challenge 2025”. This weeks theme is: “Stack it up!”.

I used layers over layers (as much as I could). Starting with gelli printed leftover paper bits, then adding some texture paste treated paper bits on top. Then some washi tapes. After that some fabric tape bits. Next some pink Posca pen marks and turqouoise Gloss Spray splatter. After that a collage fodder leaf (Rubber Dance) and some hand drawn ephemera (hearts and crosses). In between some yarn and on top some stamped words. I love how this one turned out. The happy colors on top of each other. Pure joy!

The hand drawn bits are from last years 100 day challenge. I am so glad I can incorporate those bits on this challenge. And now to the video:

Hope you liked it and got inspired! See you next week with another one.

Happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 14/2025 – turquoise & stapler

Leave a comment

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt “Full Deck Challenge”, week 14. The theme was turquise and stapler.

I used bits from my 2023 Artist Almanac and a piece of golden paper with turquoise dots. Next I added some washi tape, my constant; the date stamp and a label sticker (a kind of carry-over from my previous deck cards). On top some stapler details. On top of it all a fussy cut word with a Rubber Dance stamped one and some hand painted ephemera (from my 100 day challenge from last year).

As a contrast to last weeks one, this deck card turned out much more calm and harmonious :). And here is the video:

I hope you join the challenge, if you have not yet done so. It´s great fun and not so time consuming, as you only make one a week.

Happy crafting,

Simple one stencil Easter card idea – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello everyone, I am up over at the Rubber Dance blog today again. This time with a really simple, but awesome, stenciled Easter card tutorial. You will need the Big Ovals stencil (one of my faves!), two tones of blue Distress Inks, a brown spray ink of some sort, washi tape and a white card base.

This was the kind of idea that when it hit me, I just immediately had to run to my craft room and try it out. And it worked out so great! I have this simple stenciled egg background for my Easter card and it is so easy to make.

First you need a slimline card base in white. Next take two tones of blue Distress Inks (I used tumbled glass and broken china). Start by adhering the card base with washi tape onto your working surface, next adhere the stencil on top and cover all unnecessary circle areas with washi too.

Now apply the lighter blue tone with a blending brush, then go over the lower circle areas with a darker blue tone. After that leave the stencil as is and splatter brown spray ink thru the stencil. Let shortly dry and carefully remove the stencil and the washi tape. Decorate with a “Happy Easter” sentiment, created with golden glitter alpha stickers. How´s that for a fast and easy-to-do Easter card idea with “Robins eggs!? Here is a video for you to watch – hope you like this idea.

You could also make yellow, light pink or light brown eggs. Whatever colors you prefer. I am going to make a few more in different colors for sure.

Happy crafting,

Set of stamped ATCs – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, I am again up over at Rubber Dance blog with another project share. This time I have a set of stamped Artist Trading Cards with a video tutorial for your inspiration. For this set I used a gelli printed background paper, where I used the Marks 2 and Organic 3 stencils with acrylic paints to create the paper. The following layers were done using Pencil Marks 8 and Mix It Up 4 stamp sets and the Stars 1 stencil.

I started by stamping first with Mix It Up 4 stamp set and brown and grey shadow inks onto the paper. Next I stamped some circles with Pencil Marks 8 stamp set and applied Distress embossing glaze (weathered wood) with a heat tool on top.

Next I grabbed the scallop border stamp from the Mix It Up 4 stamp set and stamped with black ink onto the paper. After that I took some pre-made paper that had stenciled glitter paste on it (thru Stars 1 stencil). I wripped some stars from the paper and adhered them randomly onto the background. Next I decorated the ATC´s with leaf collage fodder (see the reel for that here), some yarn and a wooden button. For finishing touches I added some black pen outlining, some white Posca dots and a stamped and fussy cut sentiment from the Mix a Sentiment 2023 stamp set.

Here is a start-to-finish video for you to watch. Hope you enjoy it!

See you again soon with another inspirational project. Happy crafting!

Full Deck Challenge 12/2025 – holes and drippy paint

Leave a comment

Hello and happy Wednesday! Here is my take on the ShanoukiArt “Full Deck Challenge” number 12: “holes and drippy paint”.

I love how this turned out! I started off with collage papers gifted to me by Yuna. Then I added some Dina Wakley heavy body paint in light pink into the open areas. On top of that I added some small bits of gelli printed paper leftover to which I made holes with my Drop-A-Dile.

After adhering the papers with holes onto the background, I added Gloss Spray (in pink and blue) drippings. Next I added my constant (the date stamp) and after that I decorated the deck card with some Rubber Dance fodder and hand drawn flowers. The leaves are from the set “Pencil Marks 8” and the flowers are from my last years “the100daychallenge” project. For finishing touches I added again some stamped words (Rubber Dance stamp). I love how this deck card turned out!!!

Here is the video for you to watch:

See you next week with another deck challenge take! Happy crafting,

Full Deck Challenge 11/2025 – black & white, stenciling and one bold color

Leave a comment

Hello there, here is my take on the FDC number 11/2025. It was about black and white and some stenciling, plus one bold/strong color.

I think this was my favorite so far to make. I used black and white washi tapes with an Artist Almanac page (also black and white colored), added some white texture paste thru a Rubber Dance stencil on top and then my continous, the date stamp.

On top of that I added a Rubber Dance leaf collage fodder element in turquoise and a sticker sentiment. I love how this turned out. Here is the start-to-finish video – hope you enjoy it:

and here is a video on how I created the collage fodder:

Full Deck Challenge 2025/10 – vintage with brown splatter

Leave a comment

Hello again! Catching up with my FDC 2025 posts. I was a little sick and therefore was not able to keep up with posting there. But here is my take on “vintage with brown splatter”.

I again used the papers gifted to me by Yuna on the background collage. Also some very old (true) vintage label bits. Some old looking washi tape (my continous again). And old paper flowers by Graphic 45. The label sticker is a bold choice, but I liked the look of it. I also added some stamped words again (Rubber Dance).

The brown splatter is done using Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist which adds a nice shine to the deck card. Hope you also enjoy the short video! TFL!

“Flower bouquet” fodder card set – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello, it´s my turn to share a project over at the Rubber Dance blog and I am up with a fodder bouquet card set. I have made piles and piles of fodder and gelli prints recently and what for? For projects like this. I used the Mix It Up 5, Mixed Sentiments 1, Pencil Marks 8 and the Doodle Flowers 2 stamp set with the Wheels stencil on this project.

I love making leaf and flower fodder. Creating random colored backgrounds and stamping onto them and only when fussy cutting the images, to discover the beauty of every single piece on it´s own, is something very exciting.

So for these cards I used some recently made flower and butterfly fodder as well as gelli printed backgrounds. Have you tried making some yourself? It is a very inspiring process, so I truly recommend, you try it out.

Here is a video on how I built the cards together:

And I´ve prepared 2 different short videos on some fodder making, just for fun:

I hope you enjoy this card idea and the videos and that they inspire you to play with Rubber Dance products!! Have fun!

Full Deck Challenge 2025/9 – pink with black splatter

Leave a comment

Hello there! I am a bit late posting this, as I was quite under the weather the past week or so. But better late than never, here is my take on the FDC challenge number 9 “pink with black splatter”.

For this one I gathered all kinds of paper bits and bobs (also vintage ones) and wripped them in smaller pieces to create the background collage.

On top of that I added my constant: a date stamp. And I again used washi tape as my continous – but different colors here. I hope you enjoy the start-to-finish video:

For finishing touches I added some older ephemera, a stamped and colored Rubber Dance flower and sentiment and some Stickles for sparkle. The black splatters are done with Neocolor II black and plenty of water.

See you soon with the next take!

Stenciled Art Journal Page – Rubber Dance

Leave a comment

Hello! It´s my turn today over at Rubber Dance blog and I am up with a heavily layered, stenciled art journal page share today. For this page I used the Dotted 1, Big Ovals, Cross It, Wheels, Stars 1 and Marks 2 stencils. There are also some details added with the Doodle Flowers 2 stamp set.

I started by applying heavy body paint in “olive” with a palette knife onto the background. On top of that I used a foam brush to dab “sand” and “apricot” tones thru Big Ovals and Dotted 1 stencils. After that I outlined some of the dabbed paint “circles” with a black pen. Next I took a piece of a old dictionary book and wripped and glued strips of paper onto the background.

Next I wiped some “aloe” tone with my fingers onto the wripped dictionary page pieces to blend them into the background. I then added a layer of “tangelo” with a palette knife onto the page. Next I took the Cross It stencil out and added some white paint thru it onto the orange areas for contrast.

After that I took a black with glimmer mist misted tag out and again dabbed the “lemon” paint onto the tag thru the Wheels stencil. After that I put some “lime” toned paint onto the palette knife and wiped some of it onto the tag. The next layer was done using “stoked” tone and the Marks 2 stencil. I then added the last bits of “turquoise” paint with a palette knife thru the Stars 1 stencil onto the tag.

I sprinkled some Gloss Spray in “turquoise” for interest onto the art journal page. I then glued the stenclied black tag onto the art journal page. After that I added a misted doilie for decoration and created a cluster of leaves with “Doodle Flowers 2″ leaves next to it. There is a video at the end of this post on how I created the leaves.

I finished the page with a paper doll by Tim Holtz and some black and white alphabet stickers. Here is the start-to-finish video for further information:

And this is the video on how I made the leaves fodder:

I hope I could inspire you today. Happy creating!
