My Blue Lady don't forget to believe, by Priss

Hello, my sweetie friends, Priss (@artful.layers) here for a beautiful day of inspiration. 

Today I would like to celebrate Women's Day with you (one day early) showing this gorgeous Blue Lady that I have dreamed of with the versatile set of Face Up stamps.

One of the things I like to do is draw beautiful girls that I dream of. Then I like to put them mainly on the pages of my Art Journals. 

Don't you think this stamp is fantastic for that? I don't need to think too much about the perfect face, because it already is. You can find another girl with this stamp here. 

It was very clear to me how I wanted my Blue Lady to be surrounded by blue leaves. However, I have to confess that putting together the composition cost me a lot. 

I was really stuck once I got her on the page, but finally, I put my whole heart into it and worked to create a beautiful page that would do justice to My Power Girl. 

If you want to know, I created my background with Oxide inks in all my Blue tones, and I painted my Lady with my favorite colored pencils. 

For my Sketchy Leaves and Mandalas, I stamped them with white and golden embossing powder onto watercolor paper painted with all my spray blue Pigments. 

I made my message "Believe in your HEART" with the stamps of the set Journal Words with golden embossing powder over scraps of the painted cardboard.

Also, I stamped all around the border with Mixed Media Marks #3.

I love to decorate my projects with fabric scraps, and silk ribbons made from Saris. I believe in my heart, and that makes my heart shine.

Hope you enjoy it and that seeing my Blue Lady makes you feel that believing in your heart is always the best answer to any situation.

A little reminder that our beautiful March´s Mood Board continues in the Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge on Facebook. We hope to see you there.

These are the stamps I used

Easel Card With Textured Flowers

Image
Hello.  Welcome.  Gail from the design team here today with a project using the new Textured Flowers stamps.  I loved these the moment I saw them.  Big beautiful blooms.  And many small er stamps for adding leaves and texture.   I decided to make a Twisted Easel Card.  There are many tutorials available but I used this one by Lois.  So here's my card using Textured Flowers and of course, a giraffe .......... I was inspired by the Rubber Dance challenge colours which for June are: I stamped the large simple daisy, masked and stamped two more.  I added the giraffe from African Animals .  I think I'll call her Daisy. I thought it looked a bit empty so I stamped more daisies...... and coloured with distress and d y e inks.  I stamped and embossed three of the doodled flowers and the giraffe, fussy cut and added them to my panel.  I used brads and a Cheery Lynn die cut for the flower centers.  I also doodled a little faux stitching

Blog Hoppin' Superpowers

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:
