A card with Grungy Butterflies by Evelyn

Hello lovely visitor, it´s Evelyn today with a colorful card for your inspiration today!


This is what I did:

I took a piece of watercolor paper and glued some thin scrapbook paper and glued pieces on top. Then I added crackle paste through a stencil.

When dry, I sprayed Starburst Mists in orange and pink to the surface.
I repeated the process until I was happy with the result and when dry, I emphasized the cracks with black liquid watercolor. Then I added even more color with my Gelatos.
Now it was time for some stamping! I used  the stamp set weed love and the words from the Grungy Butterflies set for the background.
Lastly I colored another page of watercolor paper with Glimmer Mists, stamped some of the beautiful Grungy Butterflies here and there, accentuated with a white posca pen and fuzzy cut the butterflies.
Now I only had to glue down the butterflies and the stamped words.

I hope you feel inspired!
Thank you for your visit today!

Blog Hoppin' Superpowers

Image
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: ...

Altered Chipboard Butterfly + Giveaway

Image
Message in Norwegian : Hvis du foretrekker å lese dette innlegget på norsk, kan du gjøre det og samtidig bli med på giveawayen på den andre bloggen vår ved å klikke her. Hello everyone! Bibi here today with a fun project, using the Totem Monarch Poppet chipboard from EyeConnect Crafts . I had such a blast with this and I hope what I've made will inspire you to make something similar. The difference between the chipboards from EyeConnect Crafts and others ones I've seen out there, is that they are made to connect (hence the name). There are two categories, one called Lace-Ups which you bind together using ribbons, string, lace, etcetera and another category of chipboards with smaller holes so you can connect the pieces using tiny eyelets or brads. This is what it looks like. The pieces are laser cut, and you easily remove them from the base - save that part and use it as a stencil for another project. Notice there is also a chipboard of the butterfly's...
