Fungi Fun by Samantha Read

Image
Hello, Samantha here today and I'm sharing a home decoration hanging I made inspired by walks looking for mushrooms. I love bright colours, did you know that mushrooms come in all colours of the rainbow? This project was an absolute joy to create, all the layers made it lots of fun, it's also great fun to mix and match lots of different Rubber Dance stamp sets if you have them as they all work so very well together, here's how I did it..... I began with a round piece of board measuring with a diameter of 8 inches, I die cut some circles from an old book I'm recycling and adhered them in place. Using lots of brightly coloured acrylic paints and just one grey neutral, I quite randomly covered the whole area of the board. The colours were very bright indeed and to help the details pop off the background I added some white gesso, just in some places and very thinly. Using the Celestial and Sketchy Leaves stamp sets, I heat embossed some background details. Again using Celes...

Bee Perfect by Samantha Read

Hello, Samantha with you today and I'm sharing a postcard I made, I love making, sending and swapping postcards. Being approximately 4inches by 6 inches in size they're perfect for clean and simple designs or more layered and detailed. I created the background using distress inks, spritzed with water and just wiping the card in the diluted inks, I then added some interest using the Vintage Postcard stamp and a stamp from Pencil Marks 3 for the leaves. The flowers, bee and text, from Inky Friends and Flowers Gone Wild, were all stamped on white card, coloured using watercolours and Prismacolour pencils, cut out and adhered in place. To finish I added some inky splats and some iridescent liquid to the wings. Here are the stamps I used; Inky Friends Flowers Gone Wild Pencil Marks 3 Vintage Postcard I do hope you like my postcard, for lots more inspiration you can find us on Facebook - Rubber Dance Stamping Lounge right here .  Wishing you a lovely day, Sam :)

Beach Ahoy by Ellie Knol

On this card I tried to create waves by tearing the paper horizontally, and adhering the ships on and between these waves.  White heat embossed script, birds and postal cancel stamp on the dark and colorful background creates more interest.  Just a little color added to the fussycut stamped images with PanPastel make them pop a little.  See you next time, Ellie.    Rubber Dance Stamps: The Rubber Dance Webshop AHOY Vintage P:ostcard Vintage Script
