Easter Home Decor


Hi everyone!

It's Susanne today and I like to share with you some Easter decoration I created for myself. I used a styrofoam heart and a egg and of course the beautiful Rubber Dance stamps.


I started by stamping the images on a big piece of tissue paper. I used black Archival Ink, because it is waterproof. I cut the little images apart and ripped the bigger ones into smaller pieces. I put the styrofoam pieces on a spear.




I adhered the paper savings with Mod Podge® to the styrofoam. It's important to start on the edges of the heart and on the top and bottom side of the egg. So you'll get a beautiful image in the middle.
After everything was dry I paint some acrylic paint randomly onto the heart and the egg. I used a color called "butter". I add some ribbons to finish it up.
I love the result. It looks totally shabby chic. The stamps are working so well with this theme and I'm sure this would also be a nice gift idea for the spring season.





Thanks for stopping by!
Susanne


 I used the following stamps from Rubber Dance:
Vintage Birds
Old Book Page Stamp
Antique Botanicals

Thank you, Susanne! ♥ They are so pretty, I'd keep them out all year 'round! :-) Quite easy to make, maybe something the kids would enjoy doing as well. The pussy willows are so adorable, by the way. They're not quite that big here yet, but if I take some indoors I bet they will be very soon :-) We call them "gåsunger" in Norwegian, means "goose kids" - and they certainly look like tiny goose chicks, don't they? Anyway, thanks again for a great post and wonderful project! :-)

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...

Blog Hoppin' Superpowers

Image
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: ...
