Everyone is unique in his own way



Hello my dear crafty friends and welcome to my Steampunk inspiration made for you with Rubber Dance Art stamps, EyeConnect crafts and DecoArt Media products.

This is Irit from Rubber Dance team and today I am going to share the most odd project that I love a lot.
I didn't make a tutorial for this whimsy flying scull, but I  made a photo of most of the products used to make it. As you can see a lot of Rubber Dance stamps were used to make this project.
 The whole piece was first painted, them stamped and heat embossed with copper powder. Then I added more paints and more stamping and the layers were done.



Finally I added a lot of metal pieces to make the scull look a bit more " human".
The EyeConnect Crafts pieces were connected with brads and wire and the wings move as you can understand.  The sentiment is self expressive: anyone is unique in his own way, even if you are just a scull.







Stamps from Rubber Dance used to make this piece:
Pick a number
Round in circles
Flourishes
Vintage script
 Funny Birthday- splash


I hope you liked my steampunk buddy!
See you again soon!

Awesome, Irit! I have yet to make a stempunk piece, but I find this one very inspiring! The stamps you have used goes to show that one doesn't necessarily need steampunk stamps to do this, andI guess that's what has been holding me back. Thank you for a great piece and for showing us that this can be done with stamps we alrady have in our stash, plus a few odds and ends to embellish.

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...

Tutorial Tuesday - A Mini Album by Sue

Image
Good morning and happy Tuesday, it's Sue here with my tutorial for my very easy to make mini album. Here's the front and here's the back.   I started by cutting the pages for my album. I've used the Eileen Hull passport die as I think this is a fab size. Plenty of room for your images but not so big as to be intimidating. I've used chipboard for my covers, and a mixture of black, white, and watercolour card for the pages.   I've used canvas for the binding as this is really tough and flexible. I've inked it up with Distress Inks just using the primary colours, that way where they meet they will make new colours and not mud. I know you probably know this but it took me years of mud before I really got it!   Just look at the size of this Music  stamp, it's a real whopper! I inked it up and laid my binding on top of it.   These were two practice pieces from a previous project. The stencilling was too intense for my card, but ...
