SEPTEMBER NEWS AND INSPIRATION

Hello Rubber Dance fans.  Gail here today to kick off the new month at the Rubber Dance blog. 

It's September and here in the Northern hemisphere we are still holding on to the summer vibe.  This month's challenge inspiration photo is floral with some very pretty colours!!!


 Our monthly challenges are now based in our FB fan group.  The colours for the September challenge are Pink, Orange and Sap Green and/or you can go for the Anything Goes theme.  Link up your makes using the colours and/or theme using Rubber Dance stamps and you might be the lucky winner of a €15 voucher.


August saw the end of our current design team term, and although most of the team will be continuing on with us for the next 6 months, there is one team member leaving and a new one joining us.

Cornelia has decided to step down from the team at this time due to the pressures of life.  I am sure you will join me in wishing her all the best for the future.  We will miss her bright CAS creations but I am sure she will continue to join us in the fb group from time to time.  Thanks for all the inspiration Cornelia and good luck.

 Joining the team is the fabulous Mariken De Steenhuijsen-Piters


Mariken is from the Netherlands and I am sure some of you are already familiar with her lovely stamped mixed media projects.  Welcome to the team Mariken.
You will find her bio on the DT page.


We are also very pleased to welcome our guest designer for September..... Ellie Knol
Check her blog and Ellie will be joining us later in the month with her gorgeous projects using Rubber Dance stamps. 


Now here's some inspiration from the team.  
Let's start with Mariken, since it's her first official project as a member of the team.

Mariken made these beautiful bright cards using stamps from Grungy Stuff, Affirmations and Textured Flowers stamp sets


Dot made this lovely mushroom themed card using stamps from Textured Mushrooms, Doodle Borders #2, Old Book Page and Mix A Sentiment 



Evelyn made this lovely autumnal card using stamps from Funny Fungi, Textured Mushrooms and Twiggy Leaves stamp sets
 


Gerry made this beautiful art journal page using stamps from Crazy Flowers 1 and the Vintage Postcard stamp





Majo made this delightful card using stamps from Round In Circles,  
Mix A Sentiment and Solid Butterflies stamp
 


Saadia made this gorgeous tag using stamps from Butterfly girl 1, Think Again, and Art Defined 



Wow.  Another beautiful start to the month.  I hope you feel inspired to get out your stamps and create something today.   Join the fun and link up your makes using Rubber Dance stamps in the Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge.  Looking forward to seeing your makes.  Hugz

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
