Dare to be different, art journal spread for France Papillon Alad Challenge week 26

Hello dear crafty friends!

The France Papillon Alad/Asaw challenge this week was all about 

intention setting for the second half of 2018.

My intention is to listen more to my heart and less to my mind when making art.

I think it is quite hard not to think about what others will think... But, I also know by now that thinking about that kills my creativity.

For the past 6 months or so, I have struggled with lost mojo and inspiration.

From now on I´ll try to make art from my heart and dare to be different!

You´ll find my whole spread and next weeks challenge in France´s blog HERE.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

New Rubber Dance release!

Hi!

I feel happy today sharing my new stamp designs for Rubber Dance.

The stamp sets are called "Fish Swim Love" and "Fish Diet".

For this piece I have used a MDF wreath from That´s Crafty and made it into 

a window to a quirky underwater world.

This card I made with a photopaper background coloured with Distress Oxides.

This ATC I made using a Brusho on photopaper background and stamps from 

the Fish Diet stamp set.

Last card I made by using a homemade circle stencil and apply Distress Oxides.

I stamped the fishes from the Fish Swim Love stamp set onto one of my photopaper 

backgrounds, cut them out and adhered to my CAS card.

Here are the stamp sets:

Welcome over to the Rubber Dance blog HERE for some more inspiration and 

to see the awesome stamp sets designed by my friend Debs that are also released today!

As always you´ll get free shipping from Rubber Dance with the code MDFreeShip

Altered paint brush angel - Craft Stamper June TIMI Challenge

Hello!

There is a new Craft Stamper TIMI challenge up!

As long as there is real stamping on your project you are good to go.

This little mixed media altered paint brush hanging is my inspiration piece this month.

I have used plenty of That´s Crafty greyboard Bits and Pieces to alter my brush

into this little steampunkish angel.

The stamps i used are also from That´s Crafty - one texture stamp for the crackles

and the title is from a Lynne´s Affirmations stamp set.

I have used some random metallic pieces and gears, and some 

Prima/Finnabair mechanicals and art stones. I also used Prima/Finnabair rust paste.

All the other mediums are from That´s Crafty - gesso, multi surface paints and crackle glaze.

You can find the Craft Stamper Challenge HERE! 

Welcome over to see what my teamies have made as inspiration for you :)

Thank you so much for stopping by today!
