Hi everyone, Dot here.  Today I've made an Easter card for you.  Easter seems to be sneaking up on us so I thought it might be nice to use some eggs. The eggs, swirls and spots are from ' Gather Together ' stamp set and the  feather is from the 'Birdies' set. The background was simply made by swiping card through Distress Oxide ink's on a craft sheet. Some stamping with oxides and a little white gel pen to finish off with. The eggs on the other hand are stamped with Distress Crayons! This is a super fun way to stamp and these eggs were ideal for this technique. Here is a closer look at the eggs. I chose to use 3 shades of blue crayons and then around the edge I added some dark brown crayon. They've been left plain because to me they looked beautiful just the way they are. The Gather Together stamp set took me by surprise when I had a real close look at it. The flourish is absolutely GORGEOUS! And there are s...

Happy Easter, everyone! It's Bibi here with a couple of projects that have very little in common ... I don't know if this ever happens to you: You have a plan in your mind of what you're going to make, and all is fine and hunky-dory until something or the other   happens along the way and you end up making a completely different thingamabob instead. Sound familiar?  My plan was to alter a plain paint brush ... Little did I know that the first step would take me on a detour ..... I wanted to colour the metal plate with alcohol inks,  so I masked off the sides (wood and brush part) with some regular clear tape .... .... started to add the ink...., then THIS caught my attention! Whuuut?  Look - something pretty emerged on the tape! I really liked how the alcohol inks looked on the clear tape.  With an attention span like mine, you know I had to experiment some more right away ...  Set that paint bru...

Hi my dear Rubber Dance Friends. Susanne writing today and I would like to share some watercolor easter cards. I used my brand new Kuretake watercolors together with some egg stamps from Rubber Dance. You'll get really nice results when you use watercolor instead of normal ink for stamping. If you are not satisfied with the image you can use water to modify it. I cut the script and the rabbits with my Silhouette Cameo. I wish you H a p p y E a s t e r ! Thanks for stopping by.

Hi everyone! It's Susanne today and I like to share with you some Easter decoration I created for myself. I used a styrofoam heart and a egg and of course the beautiful Rubber Dance stamps. I started by stamping the images on a big piece of tissue paper. I used black Archival Ink, because it is waterproof. I cut the little images apart and ripped the bigger ones into smaller pieces. I put the styrofoam pieces on a spear. I adhered the paper savings with Mod Podge® to the styrofoam. It's important to start on the edges of the heart and on the top and bottom side of the egg. So you'll get a beautiful image in the middle. After everything was dry I paint some acrylic paint randomly onto the heart and the egg. I used a color called "butter". I add some ribbons to finish it up. I love the result. It looks totally shabby chic. The stamps are working so well with this theme and I'm sure this would also be a nice gift idea for the spring season. ...
