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!

We have Rubber Dance Stamps to give away.  There is one set of sentiment stamps - Something Wonderful and two background stamps called Diamonds.  All you have to do is leave a comment on this post to say you are joining in the giveaway.

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!)

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:
