A Valentine Giveaway!

Hi everyone, it's Helen here.

It is my turn to share a tutorial with you all today and to wish you all a Happy Valentines Day!


I made romantic bunting with my brand new I Heart Art stamps!  In the tutorial I show you how you can make bunting too!


I show you how to create a fun paper collage background and then use these fab new stamps to add some romance to each of the 6 flags in my string of Valentines Bunting!


I am not sure if I made my bunting for my husband or myself ;-)  I might have to wrap them up for him to give to me tee hee!


I hope you enjoy the tutorial and even if you think I don't want to make romantic bunting what about following the technics to create some travel bunting?  You could use maps and tickets and snippets of brochures with the odd photo thrown in to create a record of your travels on a string of bunting!  I think I may try that idea myself.


Now for details of the fun giveaway!

If you are visiting from my blog then it is time for you to leave your comment as you will have read this next bit!

Love the shine on the bunting and the ruffle edges. I enjoyed the video, as usual, and subscribed to your channel Helen, although Youtube stopped emailing updates and won't allow me to comment because I am not on Google +! I also subscribed to your blog and I am already a subscriber to the Rubber Dance blog. (so that's 3 names for me!)

Art Journal Page with Distress Ink Background and Crazy Flowers

Image
Hi everyone! It's Susanne writing today. I used Distress Inks together with some of our Crazy Flowers to create the page in this art journal. It's a watercolor journal from Kunst & Papier, it's one of my favourites to use with Ink and watercolors. I didn't use any gesso to prime my page. The flowers are embossed with white powder on watercolor paper. I coloured them in in complementary colours, by dipping them into the Distress Inks, to let them pop from the background. Scroll down for the video tutorial. Enjoy watching the video: Thanks for stopping by today! xx Susanne Rubber Dance Stamps:

Altered Chipboard Butterfly + Giveaway

Image
Message in Norwegian : Hvis du foretrekker å lese dette innlegget på norsk, kan du gjøre det og samtidig bli med på giveawayen på den andre bloggen vår ved å klikke her. Hello everyone! Bibi here today with a fun project, using the Totem Monarch Poppet chipboard from EyeConnect Crafts . I had such a blast with this and I hope what I've made will inspire you to make something similar. The difference between the chipboards from EyeConnect Crafts and others ones I've seen out there, is that they are made to connect (hence the name). There are two categories, one called Lace-Ups which you bind together using ribbons, string, lace, etcetera and another category of chipboards with smaller holes so you can connect the pieces using tiny eyelets or brads. This is what it looks like. The pieces are laser cut, and you easily remove them from the base - save that part and use it as a stencil for another project. Notice there is also a chipboard of the butterfly's...

CASology Week #202: Masculine (card by Bibi)

Image
Hello everyone! Bibi here today to show you a card I've made for the challenge at CASology, where the theme this week is to make a masculine card. "Heeeelp!", was my first reaction when I saw what their theme was, as I think it's really difficult to make cards for men! In addition, it must of course be CAS (= Clean And Simple), so I really had to step outside of my comfort zone....., but that's the point of a good challenge, isn't it? :-) Anyway, it was a post by  DT Kristiina  (on our Scandinavian blog ) that came to my rescue! If you haven't seen her post , you really should! The text is in Swedish, but there are lots of awesome project photos that speak for themselves. Kristiina had used stamped letters as the only "images" on her cards and I was very impressed by what she made, so I took out my Alphabet Uno stamps  (same as Kristiina had used), and what do you know - they spoke to me right away! Thank you, Kristiina! :-D And here...
