Gone to the Beach - Mixed Media Canvas by Susanne


Hello everyone! Today I'd like to show you a lovely canvas made by Susanne on the DT. She posted this on her own blog a few weeks ago, but I want to show it here as well in case you don't follow her blog and missed it:


Susanne says, "One of my favourite themes to create with is: beach and nautical elements. I used several stamp sets from Rubber Dance on this canvas. I love that they can be combined in so many ways.  Especially the new "Round in Circles" set! I can see them on my Christmas creation in the upcoming season already!"

You'll find the video tutorial at the end of this post, but first some details:


The background of the sentiment tag is coloured with Distress Ink, Walnut Stain. 
The speckles were achieved by misting some water on top of the ink.


The chain on top is covered with Fran-tage embossing enamel "aged silver".
The anchor below is covered with Fran-tage embossing enamel "aged aqua".  
Susanne also added a tiny little bit of "peeled paint" Distress embossing powder.  
"Brushed corduroy" Distress embossing powder was used on the sea shell.



Here is Susanne's quick and easy-to-follow tutorial video: https://youtu.be/wAAEMO4Yd4M

All stamps by Rubber Dance, from these sets/sheets:
Round in Circles
Something Fishy
Travel
Retro Beach
Vintage Postcard
Collage Elements 1
Something Wonderful (Sentiments)
- which you can find in the web shop:

Rubber Dance Stamp Challenge - October

Image
Klikk her for info på norsk (info in Norwegian) Hello, gorgeous! Are you ready for another fun challenge? I guess you are! Our colour scheme and theme this month might not come as a big surprise. After all, fall/autumn is all around us (here in the north, anyway), and we do love its glorious colours! We hope you do, too, when you create an entry (or three) for our October Challenge: Did you know that "fall" is an Old English word? It replaced the word 'harvest' in the early 1600s as more people started moving into cities. City dwellers began to use the phrase 'fall of the leaf'' and, over time, the phrase was shortened to fall. Surprisingly, etymologists don’t know where the word "autumn" comes from. It was used as far back at the 1300s (by Chaucer), and Shakespeare often used the word, too. As English spread to the New World, the common season names split as well and today, American English uses the word fall while British English
