Artist Trading Block

Hello Everyone,
Shilpa here,

I would like to share this ATB with you today, for which I've used the stamp set A Little Birdie 



It is fun project which can be your next home decor piece.


Here is the making process of this...

 I've used DCWV photo cube.  I applied white gesso to all sides.



Applied teal and brown acrylic color to the cube and let it dry completely.


To get the weathered look I applied white paint with a dry brush.




I stamped these lovely birds on the sides of the cube.


On watercolor paper I stamped these birds with black archival ink.


 I colored the birds with watercolor markers.


I added flowers, stones, lace and trims - and my ATB is finished.



I hope you will like to make your own ATB.

Thanks so much for stopping by.

1st Year Anniversary Giveaway and Blog Hop

Hello everyone and welcome to this fun blog hop with many Rubber Dance stamps to win! Tjooohoo!  It's Bibi here (owner of Rubber Dance), and today it's been exactly one year since I blogged about something I  had made  using Rubber Dance stamps!  I cannot believe it's been a whole year already, but on the other hand - there has been a lot happening since then. Things really started moving after I had hired my very first Design Team in August last year, and with their help this blog rapidly changed from being a rather quiet place to quite a busy bee hive! My Design Team members have made so many beautiful things with my stamps, helped spread the word out there in blogland (and beyond), and they've been such a great support in more ways than I can count. I'd be way up creek without a paddle without them! ♥ Love you guys! ♥ From zero readers to nearly 40.000 hits in just one year - that's pretty awesome! And if you're curious where all tho...
