Hello, gorgeous! First of all we want to wish all of you a Happy New Year! May all your crafty wishes come true ;-)

 Are you ready for another fun challenge? I guess you are!

Our colour scheme and theme this month goes with the season. We picked a winter theme this time and we do love its glorious colours! We hope you do, too, when you create an entry (or three) for our January Challenge:

Stamping must be obvious on your project.  You do not have to use Rubber Dance stamps to participate.

ALL THREE challenge colours must be used, but you may add others. 

Max 3 entries per person.

You may combine with other challenges, as many as you like.

We reserve the right to remove entries that don't meet these simple requirements.

Winner will win five fab stamps from Rubber Dance!

(Please mention the stamps you've used from Rubber Dance in your Post) 
The owner of Rubber Dance will pick some nice ones out for you.


The winner:
is our DT Pick of the Month, selected among ALL entries.
You do not have to use our stamps to enter!

We also offer a Guest Designer spot to our DT Pick of the Month,
who will (if she wants) get her challenge card featured amongst the inspirational makes here on the Rubber Dance blog when we announce an upcoming challenge.

Honourable Mentions:
goes to some fave entries where our stamps have been used.
Fame, glory and braggin' badges awaits! ;-)

I've made my card and written my post but the Linky appears to be inactive - is it broken?

I tested it right now and it seems to be working fine again.
Please try again :)

It's still not working - I think you must be viewing it as an administrator rather than as an ordinary reader of the blog :( - try looking at it on somebody else's device so you can see what we're seeing.

Thanks Bibi, I don't know what the problem is but I've moved from my PC to my ipad now and I'm still just getting a message saying that the Link in widget is not allowed, so it can't be a browser problem. However I can see that you have visited my blog and commented on my entry so it MUST be working!

I have contacted InLinkz the tech support and asked them what the problem might be (it's the weekend so no answer yet). I tried on an older version of Internet Explorer, and I got the error message there, but it does work on my iPad (Safari browser), and it also works on Chrome and Firefox. I was not logged in as admin when I checked. Anyway, we do have 4 other entries so it seems to work for most people/browsers.

Update: Tech support looked into it and it should be working everywhere now.

I am very happy to find this challenge while "window shopping". The photo is so inspirational and I already know what I am about to make within the given color scheme -- now I just have to find time to make it (working gets your bills paid but it sure is a bump on the road when it comes to having time for crafting...)

Hugs from Finland,
Eemeli

Rubber Dance Stamp Challenge - October

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

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
