3 ATC's in Spring Color


I have been inspired by the beautiful spring colors that are out in the wild and in this month's challenge. Mushrooms are amazing and tastes good.
Remember to use the code susan2016 and get 15% off your purchase if you get the urge to buy the beautiful stamps that I have used here.


I have made my own stamp with rubber bands wrapped around a piece of wood. It has been used for the grass in these ATCs, a method which I saw a blog post from England.
As a start, I painted all ATCs with white gesso, then I used the stamp set Collage Mix and Mushrooms with my chosen colors.




I have used: the stamp set Collage Mix and Mushrooms
Paint On paper to the ATC's
White gesso and sky acrylic paint from Dina Wakley
Distress ink broken china, gathered twigs, black soot, peeled paint and scattered straw
Words from the computer.

I hope you have been inspired to participate in our spring challenge and I wish you a good day
Hugs, Susan

Lovely ATC's, Susan! The text stamp in the back make them look like book pages from a nature yournal where you hand printed with real mushrooms (which is how I made the stamps - from my nature prints). The way you made the grass is such a cool idea, I have to try that! Thank you so much, darling!

Blog Hoppin' Superpowers

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:
