Playful Grungy Art Journal page by Ellie Knol




Starting with pages from an Art Journal is quite an easy way to create a quick card..  or two. 

Playing in my art journals is basically daily a minute or more coloring while having coffee, or some other time playing with nothing in particular, and no pressure to finish the project. 

Very basic: stamping, additional color onto fussy cut stamped images and some background stamping and white heat embossing. 
I turned the journal page into a card.


I hope you will try this easy technique... 

See you, 
Ellie Knol

1st Year Anniversary Giveaway and Blog Hop

Hello everyone and welcome to this fun blog hop with many Rubber Dance stamps to win! Tjooohoo!  It's Bibi here (owner of Rubber Dance), and today it's been exactly one year since I blogged about something I  had made  using Rubber Dance stamps!  I cannot believe it's been a whole year already, but on the other hand - there has been a lot happening since then. Things really started moving after I had hired my very first Design Team in August last year, and with their help this blog rapidly changed from being a rather quiet place to quite a busy bee hive! My Design Team members have made so many beautiful things with my stamps, helped spread the word out there in blogland (and beyond), and they've been such a great support in more ways than I can count. I'd be way up creek without a paddle without them! ♥ Love you guys! ♥ From zero readers to nearly 40.000 hits in just one year - that's pretty awesome! And if you're curious where all tho...
