Birthday Tag by Angie Coomber


 Hi arty friends, 

How are you? There are a lot of birthdays in our family in April and I have been making a fair few cards.

I made this birthday tag as part of a set of gift vouchers for someone who loves the sea.

I made a few gelli prints in the sort of colours I knew I wanted to use.

I chose 2 of them which I used to cover a #8 tag.


Next I embossed some “bubbles” on the top half of the tag.

I chose the colours for my sea creatures, stamped the images I wanted and cut them out.


I glued some of these on to the tag and used the rest on the pocket tag (which I recently made in a class).

I added some white doodling and edged the tag with black Distress Ink, and finally adding some sari ribbon.


Hopefully the recipient will like it...

Until next time,

hugs from Angie x

Stamps used:

Textured Sea Creatures

Textured Fishes

Design Team - One Year Anniversary!

Image
Hello everyone! It's Bibi (owner of Rubber Dance) here today.  I can't believe it's been a whole year already since my very first Design Team started working for Rubber Dance! And what a GOOD year it has been!!  I was extremely lucky to find such nice and talented women who were willing to make artwork in exchange for stamps! And what do you know - they think they are lucky, too! It's a win-win situation for us all, but between you and me,  (I'm leaning forward, whispering ...), I am the luckiest of us all, no doubt!! I couldn't have kept this blog so active and full of awesome artwork and tutorials all on my own, nor would I have been able to spread the word about my stamps like my DT has on their own blogs and other social media - and a few paper publications, too, plus lots and lots of video tutorials on youtube. Did you know you can find all the video tuts in one place right here ? Now you do, but go back and look at those videos later because right now ...

1st Year Anniversary Giveaway and Blog Hop

Image
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...
