HAPPY NEW YEAR AND OTHER HAPPENINGS

Hello Rubber Dance fans. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!


  Gail here today to start a new year and a new decade here at the Rubber Dance blog. I hope you had a fabulous and fun festive season and I hope that 2020 will be an awesome year for us all.
The first day of the month/year/decade so we have a new round of inspiration for you.  We have changed the challenge format a to using a moodboard.  You can be inspired by anything on the moodboard; one or more colours, things, shapes, mood etc. etc..

Here's the fabulous January Moodboard


 If you are creating anything with Rubber Dance stamps this month, whatever your inspiration, please add it to the album in our FB fan group and you might be the winner of a voucher to the store.

Now here's some inspiration from the team to get us started....
Dot made this gorgeous art journal page using stamps from
Evelyn is sharing this beautiful card using stamps from Da Vinci Woman 2,  
Doodle Flowers, You Rock and Vintage Script. 



Gerry made this beautiful card using Textured Christmas Green,
 Grungy Harlequin, Old Bookpage, and Journal Words stamps.


Majo made this fun card using stamps from From Moo To You, Sew Sweet 
Funny Birthday and Round In Circles



Mariken used stamps from I Heart Art, Grungy Borders, Journal Words, Small Grungy Butterflies and Mix A Sentiment #2 to make this lovely card and tag.

Saadia made this fabulous mixed media piece using stamps from
Doodle borders 2, Journal Words, and Beautiful Bugs.
 


Wow.  Another amazing 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.  See you there!!!

Thanks to everyone who applied for our design team.  There were lots of awesome applications and Susanne will be working through them and we will let you know who will be on the new team soon.

I've also heard there are some new stamps on the way so look out for those, hopefully later this month.  Just waiting for the plates arrive!!

Susanne is taking a well deserved break, but the Rubber Dance webshop remains open and there are a selection of stamps on special offer so hop over and check out the sale.

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: ...

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...

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...
