Take The Plunge With Rubber Dance

Hi everyone,
it's Dot here, welcome back for another fun technique using
Rubber Dance Stamps.

Today I've made a card using Bister on glossy card for you
using a drinking glass to create a white area.


This one was heaps of fun to play around with!

The background was created by placing a drinking glass into the center
of the card then sprinkling a little Bister around it. Not too much though.
A little goes a long way.
Spritz a little water to activate it and let the magic happen.


I've also added some Colour Burst powder for a different green.
When the water was added it created some extra little pops of colour.
I was surprised to see pink appear!
I've stamped words from Take the Plunge stamp set
using Hero Arts white ink. A little bleach was flicked here and there just for fun.
I fell in love with the look so far - do you ever make a background
and just want to keep it as it is?
... but it was time to add the main image.




The gorgeous vintage lady from the same set was stamped
using my stamping platform and oxides.
I started with the orange and added browns and black ink.
Then cut her out.



To finish the card off the lady was masked
so that shells could be added. Textured Sea Creatures.
 Background stamps from Textured Sea Creatures were stamped
with white ink,
along with some black stamping to bring it all together.


I've managed to use the colours from this this month's challenge.


I hope you are inspired to join in with our challenge over on facebook
at the Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge.
I hope you are also inspired to grab a glass from your cupboard
and have some fun with any of your powder products.
They mix together beautifully.
I love how they look on glossy card because the colours 
are so much brighter.

Stamps used are:

     


Happy Stamping!

Always Sparkle - Envelope Book Tutorial by Sue

Image
Good afternoon and happy Saturday, welcome to the weekend! It's Sue here with my envelope book. Making your own books and journals is very popular at the moment, and I wanted to have a go. I also wanted to use supplies that I had already as it's just after Christmas and I'm already in 2022's craft budget. So I have quite a few of these -  Colour Craft lustre paints. Loads of these - rather posh DL pearlised envelopes. I bought a box full in a closing down sale, so have a box full less 3! And these, my favourite bright StazOn inks. So to work (well play really, I'm making it all up as I go along) I started by painting my envelopes with the paints, then added some stencilling in a contrasting colour. I've used totally different colours so that I've got a choice of colours for my toppers. I've used metallics on this one and they are really nice! For the 'in between...

Tutorial Tuesday - A Mini Album by Sue

Image
Good morning and happy Tuesday, it's Sue here with my tutorial for my very easy to make mini album. Here's the front and here's the back.   I started by cutting the pages for my album. I've used the Eileen Hull passport die as I think this is a fab size. Plenty of room for your images but not so big as to be intimidating. I've used chipboard for my covers, and a mixture of black, white, and watercolour card for the pages.   I've used canvas for the binding as this is really tough and flexible. I've inked it up with Distress Inks just using the primary colours, that way where they meet they will make new colours and not mud. I know you probably know this but it took me years of mud before I really got it!   Just look at the size of this Music  stamp, it's a real whopper! I inked it up and laid my binding on top of it.   These were two practice pieces from a previous project. The stencilling was too intense for my card, but ...
