Hi everyone, I hope that you are enjoying your weekend. A little while ago Melina showed us how to make some gelli print cards, so I made this one with the quick background that she shared (which you can find here  and here ).  It looked like so much fun so I thought I would give it a go. The stamps used are Butterfly Girl #2, Twiggy Leaves, Vintage Flourishes with words from Dancing Star. Butterfly Girl was coloured with water colour pencils and cut out. Stamps played with are: Twiggy Leaves Butterfly Girl #2 Vintage Flourishes Other products used were: Gelli Plate DecoArt paint Water colour pencils Thank you so much for stopping by today. Happy Stamping! Dot x

Hi everyone, It's Donna here today and I thought as we're nearly into Winter now (shudder) then it's time for a Wintery creation. I took a really thick piece of cardboard and covered it with a layer of white Decoart Crackle paint and set it aside to air dry. While that was drying, I stamped the awesome tree from  Carved Whimsy Wood  onto a scrap of Gelli printed paper and fussy cut it out. When the background had dried and cracked, I added the tree to the background and started to add all the other pieces too. Under the tree is a lollipop stick covered with sand texture paste and painted with rusty coloured acrylic paints. Another little strip of Gelli printed paper was added below the lollipop stick. I cut a little piece of Calico fabric out and then added a heart cut from some painted scrap paper. The finishing touches were to add a small metal disc, some twine and some sentiments from Tim Holtz. I used my Cropodile to make the holes for the hanging, adde...

Hello! It´s Melina here today sharing a really easy and simple journal spread on this Simplicity Sunday. Hope you enjoy your weekend and are up for some creating! This is one of my really small journals. I often use it to mop up leftover paint from other projects. So, I already had some green and orange going on in the background. I took out my Round in Circles stamp set and started playing. I stamped with different stamps from the set using green, orange, turquoise, red and  brown Distress Oxides. I made some white and black splatters and drew a black  line to frame the spread. For the focal point I just piled up some scrap pieces of  old book paper and added a sentiment from Tim Holtz. Here are some close-ups for you. Thank you so much for stopping by today, and hope you found some inspiration from my simple, grungy journal spread! Hope to see you in our newly started Facebook group Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge . There y...

Hi there! Susanne here today with a new autumn themed art journal page. I used the Fun-gi Mushrooms stamp set and also the I Love Leaves , Twiggy Leaves and Round in Circles from Rubber Dance. Instead of stamping ink I used water-soluble crayons to stamp the mushrooms. Scroll down to watch the process video. Enjoy watching the video: Here are some close-ups: Thank you so much for stopping by today! xx Susanne Supplies: Rubber Dance: Twiggy Leaves I Love Leaves Fun-gie Mushrooms Round In Circles Others: Neocolor II Crayons Brushos Metallic Paint StazOn Ink Stencil Texture Paste Tim Holtz Stickers Tim Holtz Leave Thinlits (Sizzix)

Hi everyone, It's Donna here today with a non scary Halloween card for those of you that like something a little bit spooky but not too much! This really is a very simple card to make but I think looks effective. On black card I used a Memento white ink to stamp the yummy tree from  Carved Whimsy Wood  twice to provide a backdrop to the houses. The houses are from the wonderful  Textured Houses  set which I stamped onto white card and coloured in with a selection of Halloween colours using my Zig Clean Colour pens. I fussy cut them out and mounted them onto the background using little foam pads. The spooky moon was just a scrap of Gelli printed paper I had in my stash that I cut a circle from. That was added to the background, behind the houses, with foam pads too. The finishing touch was to add a sticker sentiment from Tim Holtz that I think fitted the card perfectly. I then added everything to a 5x7 white card stock. There you have a Halloween...

Hi everyone, It's Dot here with a fun tutorial for you using the 'Take The Plunge'  and 'Playful Penguins' stamp sets. The technique is using an acrylic block to create some quick and fun backgrounds ... and some masking.  I've used the acrylic block technique before which you will see here. This card also meets the criteria for the challenge over on our face book group challenge. Okay ... are you ready? Here we go.       Step 1: These 4 pictures show you the order in which I've stamped the images to create a little scene. These are stamped onto water colour card as I thought I would colour the finished image with watered down distress ink. Step 2: Cut out the group of images. Step 3: I've added some distress oxide ink to the edges of an acrylic block and spritzed it with water. The reason for using the oxides was because I was going to layer the colours and oxides are great for this.  The colours o...
