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.

Happiness is a state of mind - Art Journal Page

Image
Hello Everyone, Shilpa from the Design Team here. I am sharing with you a journal spread, for which I've used Rubber Dance Nostalgic Couples , Something Wonderful and few other stamp sets. Here's my procedure... To make the texture on the journal page, first I cut out this piece using a die. I adhered that die cut pieces on pages and applied embossing paste through stencil.  Let it dry completely.   To bring colours to the page I spritzed randomly with  Peacock Feather, Wilted Violet, Faded Jeans and Vintage Photo distress inks. To create one more layer I stamped circles and text on the page. In addition I applied colours from distress crayons to create depth. I stamped the Nostalgic Couple on another paper with black archival ink and coloured it with distress markers.   I adhered a few embellishments and ephemera and layered the lovely couple image onto it. On the other page, I added words fro

I Wish I Could Art Journal - by Bibi

Image
Hey everyone! I'm not sure whether what I've made for today can be called an art journal page or altered canvas, because it's really neither .. It's not a page in a journal and the "canvas" is a piece of cardboard, so... maybe it's a hybrid of sorts. No matter what it's called, here it is! And this is what it looks like with the guitar flap open: The reason why I made this .. "whatever it's called" .... is that I've had this bundle of guitar string-looking wire lying on the floor in my studio for some time. Yes, on the floor! (If you thought I'm a very neat and tidy person, I'm sorry to burst the illusion). I've no idea where that wire bundle came from, and I'm not sure why I hadn't bothered to pick it up... but I've looked down on it from time to time, thinking I could probably use it for something, some fine day... .... and then, a few weeks ago a friend of mine was visiting, he pic

Back from The Netherlands

Hello everyone! It's Bibi here today, typing to you from my new keyboard .... Isn't that speck-tacular?  But what does my "new" keyboard have to do with my trip to The Netherlands? Keep reading and you'll soon find out ... As our regular blog readers will know, I spent a week in The Netherlands earlier this month. The main reason I went there was so I could go to the ARTSpecially stamp show in Nijkerk to meet my Dutch retailer - Marian, who owns Hobbycompleet de Duif . But before that, my sweetheart and I spent some days in Amsterdam, one of my fave places in the world! The huge "I amsterdam" letters on the plaza behind Rijksmuseum (National Gallery). Any toursist with respect for herself will take 100's of photos of those letters.... It was colder in April than I had expected, and the spring was indeed late this year.   Even so, the famous Tulip Festival was on. Here I am by the pond (still at the Rijksmuseum plaza) where tho
