Rubber Dance Challenge

A new month is a new challenge at Rubber Dance.. come join! 


 I created a booklet with some printer paper cut to size (6 double pages) as the signatures, sewn right to the cover. 



The base is a gelliprint pulled from my 5x8 inch gelliplate.
I use this smaller one to cleanup my brayer, an the bigger 8x10 inch for the actual printing. 
I even printed onto stickers, but that is a project still in progress. 



Stamp the Sketchy Flowers onto the cover with Potting Soil Archival Ink and ... 



... color it with watercolor pencils. 




As you can see I created two of these books. 

This is the mood board: 


My Creative Monday for Magenta - an easy bound notebook 2

 

Create the notebook by folding black cardstock, and approximately  6 white papers in half. 
- Use the 3-hole-binding to bind the notebook with waxed thread. 
- Cut the book to size. 



I had a part of the colored background left and created a bookmark from it. 



I folded the bookmark and added a thin strip of red doublesided tape to the upper edge on the inside. 
This way it will stick out a little at the top of the notebook, but also stay put. 



The background has been colored with Nuance. I love these colors together.

My Creative Monday for Magenta - Nuance on photopaper

Playing with Nuance and masks on photopaper : it really is so much fun.
Sprinkle the powder onto the mask, mist with water and use the mask as a stamp.


I fussycut the flowers and made a collage of it with script stamps. 



These will always turn out very different!

My Occasional Creative Thursday for Magenta

Oh my, I for once had a miss out on the blog for Magenta on a Monday... 

so just this once I'm here on Thursday. 
I don't think you mind :) 


As you can see: I have a mixed media type of card today, or art journaling? 
Starting with a collaged paper napkin and filling in with stamped images that were fussy cut... 
that's basically what I did here. 



Happy Crafting!!
