Nov/Dec Challenge

Hello again crafty friends - it's challenge time again here at Rubber Dance and we are feeling a bit festive! Christmas is just around the corner and so we have a wintry colour theme for our latest challenge and an (optional) theme of 'Tis the Season. Help us get in the Christmas spirit with those festive stamps!


We know that crafters get uber busy as the holiday season approaches so this challenge is a little more leisurely, running over two months instead of the usual one. BUT that means TWO prizes this time around! So double the chance of winning!


Nov/Dec Challenge:


You can find all the challenge info and rules on the challenge page - take a quick look
 before you create.

You could win this!!!
  • Our two randomly chosen WINNERS receive a voucher to spend in the Rubber Dance shop worth 35 euros!!!
  • The Design Team will choose our favourite entry - the DT Pick of the Month. No prize other than fame and glory ;-).
  • All entries using Rubber Dance stamps will get a special mention and our fave out of those will be our Honourable Mention for the month.
Winners will be announced on our blog on the 7th of the following month, so remember to check back to see if you won!

Here's some inspiration from the wonderful Design Team, of course using stamps from Rubber Dance, which you can find on our website: www.rubberdance.com

    I like this colour combination so much more than the usual red and green! Also a good idea to run the challenge for 2 months, as you say it's a busy period (especially for crafters..)

    3 great festive colours and some fab DT cards. Can I just check the rules....do your require all 3 colours to be used in entries? Or is it that you can use any of them...? Also can any other colours be used in addition to those of the challenge? Thanks for clarifying this and looking forward to joining in the fun. Merry Christmas! Hugs xx

    Hi Jane! As much as would love to see you using all three colours in your entry, our moodboard is merely meant as an inspiration and you can use any of the three - also in combination with other colours. Thanks for asking! :) Greetings from sunny Spain .... a few days left of my vacation here, not really in the Christmas mood just yet while it's so warm and summery .. ;-)
    Hugs back! xx

    I used the colours but for this first one I didn't use the theme and I think you won't mind that one. If it's a problem let me know. As always thank you for the challenge and for sharing your gorgeous inspirations with us. Bibi hope you enjoy the rest of your holiday huni Karen x

    Oh my goodness, I don't know what happened but my card appears multiple times! My computer froze while I was uploading and just tossed my card like confetti all over your blog! I hope you can remove the extra ones because I can't seem to find the delete option. I'm so sorry!

    Please try again, sweetie. The Linky tool had some sort of hick-up, no idea why it disappeared for some time but it's working again now.

    It just so happens that red, white and blue are my favorite color combos during the winter holidays. The blue and white are so fun for snowy days and red adds a pop of cheer!

    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:

    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
