Lucky You – cards

Hello, today I´m sharing the last cards of this year. Just two mushroom cards I created with my final bits of Gloss Sprays and the Textured Mushrooms 2 stamp set.

For these cards I just grabbed a green paper onto which I had applied some texture paste thru the Marks 2 Rubber Stamps stencil. On top some neon colored droplets and a cluster of mushrooms and a stamped sentiment. The “Lucky You” text in German is hand written and some gloss spray droplets accompany it.

I created two of these cards, using the same basic idea on both. Wishing you all a good last day of 2024!!! And all the best for the next year to come. Lot´s of health, happiness and creative fun!! See you on the other side!

Inspirational cards for the New Year with positive and negative stencil images

Hello, it´s my turn again today over at Rubber Dance blog and I am up with a set of motivational/inspirational cards for the new year, created using positive and negative stencil images. For the cards I used the Textured Mushrooms 2 stamp set with the Wheels and the Leaves 2 stencil.

Here is how I created these cards:

I first took a white card base and added Distress Oxide Ink in blue tones thru the Leaves 2 stencil onto it. For my second background I then took the already inked stencil, spritzed it with water and pressed the wet image onto another piece of white paper and let that dry.

You can see both backgrounds here on the above cards. For centerpiece I used leftover pieces from my previous projects, like the leaf images, the Gloss Spray mushrooms and the circle image. The sentiment are created with the Mix A Sentiment 2023 stamp set. I stamped the images on white paper, then fussy cut every word and arranged different sentiments with the words.

For the second set of cards with orange and red toned backgrounds, I did the same, except I inked a piece of white mixed media paper, then spritzed the Wheels stencil again with water and made a negative image with the leftover ink. In fact, the inked stencil image can be used several times, until the stencil has no ink/color left.

For these cards I used the basic idea, like on the blue cards. If the card recipient loves strong color combinations, then you can give them the positive image card and if not, go for the lighter, negative stencil image background.

Since the Sketchy Leaves stamp is sold out due to popular demand, I will link an alternative product for you. Basically any leftover images can be used as centerpieces here. Just cluster them and add an interesting sentiment and your inspirational mixed media cards are done.

Hope you get inspired!

Artist Trading card set with Textured Mushrooms 2 – Rubber Dance

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

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

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!
