Congratulations to the Rubber Dance challenge's 2nd anniversary.


Dear blog readers, Susan from the DT here and I've used the colors of March 2016.


Now our summer will soon be over here in the north, and some of us have come back from our summer vacation.
When I'm on vacation I always collect some memories, clippings, old tickets, stones, shells and many wonderful holiday pictures. When I looked at the Retro Beach stamp set, I was inspired and I think it's fantastic and perfectly suited for my ATCs.



I have stamped with black Archival ink and colored with crayons. I have used distress micro glace.  It is a very good product to put on top of my colored image to spray with the stain distress afterwards.

Colors I have used: Distress spray stain rusty hinge, mustard seed and salty ocean.
Distress ink ground espresso
Inktense crayons and Ranger ATC
Different things from my stash.



I used Beautiful Bugs, Antique Botanicals, Stitch and Frame, I Love Leaves and Retro Beach stamp set.



I hope that you would like to participate in our challenge.

I wish I all a good day. Hugs, Susan

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

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:
