Heat Embossing with Rubber Dance Stamps

Hi everyone,

I hope you are having a fun weekend.  Today I am sharing another Rubber Dance You Tube Tutorial.  I have had great fun thinking of card designs to make using one of Rubber Dances new stamp sheets.  There have been four launched this month and I hope that I can tempt you to pop over and check them out!

This card features a couple of stamps from the new Vintage Birds (B2-L), a couple of stamps from the Maple Leaves set (NP2-M) and last but not least a lovely sentiment stamp from the Think Again (SET2-M) stamp sheet!  So this tutorial definitely asks you to look at the stamps you have in your Rubber Dance and other stamp collections and to be daring and mix them up a bit!


Cutting Guide:

Green Card Base:  11 1/2" x 5 3/4" scored at 5 3/4" or 29cm x 14.5 cm scored at 14.5cm
Cream Card, Front and Inner (Cut 2): 5 1/2" squares or 14cm squares
Cream Quote Card: 2" x 2 1/2" or 5cm x 6.5cm
Green Quote Card: 2 1/4" x 2 3/4" or 5cm x 7cm

As usual I have created a matching inner for this card and used one of the lovely Think Again sentiments to finish it off.  I think it goes quite well with the inspiring quote I have used from the Vintage Bird set.  What do you think?


I really hope you enjoy the You Tube tutorial.  If you are new to or are struggling with using Embossing Powders this one contains lots of hints and tips to help you master this form of stamping!


I have spent a lovely Saturday designing with my Rubber Dance stamps and I know you are going to love working with them too.  Here is the link so you can pop over to check out these and all the other stamps over at rubberdance.com.  You can meet us on Facebook too so please come on over and say hi! 

 Sign up to the Rubber Dance Blog while you are here to be sure you don't miss a thing!  Don't forget to check out the new monthly Colour Challenge as we would love you to join in the fun!  Enjoy the tutorial  X

Thank you for yet another great project and video tutorial, Helen! I would never have thought of combining the humming bird and maple seed stamps - but what a great match they are! :-))) Thank you!

Helen, this is a lovely card. What type of gluestick did you use to attach the rubber stamp to the block? I would hate to have my stamps all permanently attached. Thank you!

Easel Card With Textured Flowers

Image
Hello.  Welcome.  Gail from the design team here today with a project using the new Textured Flowers stamps.  I loved these the moment I saw them.  Big beautiful blooms.  And many small er stamps for adding leaves and texture.   I decided to make a Twisted Easel Card.  There are many tutorials available but I used this one by Lois.  So here's my card using Textured Flowers and of course, a giraffe .......... I was inspired by the Rubber Dance challenge colours which for June are: I stamped the large simple daisy, masked and stamped two more.  I added the giraffe from African Animals .  I think I'll call her Daisy. I thought it looked a bit empty so I stamped more daisies...... and coloured with distress and d y e inks.  I stamped and embossed three of the doodled flowers and the giraffe, fussy cut and added them to my panel.  I used brads and a Cheery Lynn die cut for the flower centers.  I also doodled a little faux stitching

Blog Hoppin' Superpowers

Rubber Dance has gained a following of stampers that love our Sarcasm Superpowers sentiment stamps. These aren't exactly our best seller stamps (not very surprisingly), but if you love them, you'll LOVE them! And this particular group of followers certainly do - not very surprisingly at all with a group name like theirs .... namely the  Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers! (I know, right? Too darn cute!) These fine ladies have bullied me and some of my designers into a blog hop featuring our Sarcasm Superpower stamps. It didn't take much persuation, nor any bribes to speak of. Just mention  "challenge", and we'll be all over you like underfed fruitflies on a brown banana. And that's what the Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers is all about - a challenge blog with new challenges every other week. Fasten your seat belts and enjoy the bumpy ride! Of course there will be a prize.... if you make it to the end. Here's what I've made for our hop:
