Artist Plate Stamps and a Mop Up Cloth!



Hello, I'm Eileen Godwin and I'm delighted to be the Guest Blogger for Rubber Dance Stamps today. I've had such fun with this Artist Plate Set designed by Katy Leitch.
I always keep 'Mop Up' clothes on my desk to collect all the drips of paint (Brusho Paints in particular) odd splashes from dripping with ink stencils and 'plonk it down 'ere why don't yer' coffee cup ring stains! The cloths are strong, recycled, paper cleaning cloths. I've used one here, cut with a Circle Die for this background.

So quick and easy to stamp on with Black Archival Ink using the Paint Brushes Stamps from the set .


A White Pigment Ink pen to highlight the Brushes images and a few flicks of black gesso from a paintbrush on top of the background to add more interest...... job done.
I have so enjoyed my Guest Blogging day today. Many thanks for asking me, Bibi and Katy.

Thank you for looking today.... and I'll be back in a couple of weeks!
Eileen xx

I can't believe that even your old cloths for mopping up spills are a work of art in themselves! Great work Eileen. Stef x

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
