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

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!!!
