ROMANTIC CARD "FIND YOUR DESTINATION"

 Hi Rubber Dance friends!!  Josi Tomàs is writing to show you a new tutorial, step by step, on how to make this beautiful card using the Vintage Postcard stamp that reminds me of the gorgeous letters from lovers. Do you agree?

___________________________________________

STEP BY STEP

1. I created a little background using old book sheet paper and music sheets and my Gelatos in three colours combined with black.


Close up view

2. To give it and age effect I painted with white acrylic paint and dried very well.  I stamped Doodle Flowers, embossed with translucent powder and Distress Oxide ink in violet.

3. To finalize the background I painted it with two spray colours, applied crackle paste and let it air dry.


 4. Once the crackle paste dries I stamped the beautiful Old Book Page with black ink around the project and decorate as follows:

a. I stamped the Grungy Butterfly on yellow card stock

b. I stamped the Vintage Postcard in a white card stock, crumpled it and stained it with violet and yellow Distress ink. Next I applied crackle paste and let it air dry.

 Once it's dry, I've broken it into two parts.

c. I stamped the phrase "find your destination" in a white card stock and cut it out to divide it into two parts as well.

 

As you can see, the decoration forms a diagonal from the top left to the bottom right and has three common elements on both sides: a piece of the vintage postcard, a part of the sentence and a piece of white thread.

 I hope you like it!! See you soon again and don't forget to have fun using the Rubber Dance stamps and show us in the Facebook fan page Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge

Rubber Dance Stamp Challenge - October

Image
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
