Newsflash! Starting Small

Hello.  Welcome.  Well, would you believe.....  The lovely Bibi at Rubber Dance had a design team call and guess what??!!  One of the lucky ladies is ME!!  Gosh, wow and by the way I'm joining the Scandinavian team!  So I hope you will be visiting and maybe we can all learn a little Norwegian LOL.  Oh, that's maybe you can learn a little Norwegian.  We are all hoping I already know a bit!!  Anyway, my first post on the Rubber Dance blog will be 9th August, so to keep you interested I decided to do a little something using this months challenge colours



For a chance to win some lovely rubber make something using the challenge colours and stamping.  The theme is optional and you don't have to use Rubber Dance stamps, but of course we would love to see them LOL.


I cut my ATC base from textured card using Sixxix ATC die and stamped the beach babe from Take the Plunge in Colourbox Irish ink.  I masked her and stamped Spooky ATC background using Mowed Lawn distress ink.  
 
I stamped the beach babe again using Archival Potting Soil and fussy cut her.  I paper pieced her costume and coloured her towel with Mustard Seed distress ink. 


I added some black embossing powder as a grungy border and stamped and embossed the smallest butterfly from Antique Botanicals.   I fussy cut my butterflies and coloured with distress.  Hopefully my beach babe looks like she's in the garden.  Love that image.  All the stamps are available at Rubber Dance

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

    This is beautiful!! With the textured card stock, it looks like a mini canvas. Such a great way to use the color combo. Thanks for playing with The House That Stamps Built.

    Oh this image is so lovely and i like how you've chosen to color her. I agree with Heather, the texture of the card stock makes it look like canvas. Take care and join us again at The House That Stamps Built.
