Simplicity Sunday - Three easy greeting cards with gelli printed backgrounds by Melina

Hello everyone!

It´s Melina here today with three greeting cards to share.
Some time ago I shared a video here for a Technique Thursday blog post,
on how I made these backgrounds. I didn´t use all my printed backgrounds at that time, 
and now I have turned them all into quick and simple cards.
I also used already coloured and cut out images made for other projects, but
never got used at that time. I love the feeling when actually making something 
out of the pile of stuff laying on my table, don´t you?

For the first card I used Friends Fur-ever, Just a Note

For the second card I used Crazy Flowers #1, Just a Note

For the third card I used Tropical Summer, Beautiful Words

If you would like to look back at the blog post on how I made the printed backgrounds,
you´ll find it HERE.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! It would be lovely if you join us in the 
Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge facebook group!
xx Melina

Lovely cards, Melina! This goes to show that we should always keep leftovers from a project so that we can use the elements later. I love your gelli printed backgrounds, and I think the sentiments look great when stamped like this - with part of it outside of the circle. Thanks for sharing! ♥ ♥ ♥

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between...

I want to fly!

I used one of the Aztec images from the set * Aztec Art Dolls *. To me it looked like it wanted to take off and fly :) The words come from the sets * Fly with me * and * Affirmations *.  I created my background using Distress Inks with different stencils on a Sizzix die *Postage Frame*.   You can find the stamps here at the shop:   http://www.rubberdance.com And as a special treat, please use "MAJO2016" to receive a 15% discount on your next order! Have a lot of fun crafting! Love Majo ♥

Giveaway Winners!

Image
Hello everyone! Bibi here to announce the three winners of my Giveaway that has run since May 17th - which was a big day to celebrate! If you missed the original post, you can see it here . First I want to thank everyone (nearly 40!) who joined my Giveaway with all your lovely comments!  ♥  There were people commenting from all over the world and I love that this blog reaches out to people in so many different countries.  It was very interesting to see which sheets of stamps you like the most. There was a wide variety of faves, which goes to show that we have different taste - and I think Rubber Dance has something for everyone, except uber cute stamps .... although there certainly are some adorable ones! The Giraffe, for instance, which is  my fave of the adorables (which hereby is a word). My adorable Giraffe stamp (drawn by DT Susanne),  with stamped text from Sarcastic Superpower THREE winners have been drawn , and the winners have won ...
