It’s Anything Goes at Retro Rubber! 

I started with a funky die cut rectangle out of some musical paper.

Then I flagged a couple of scraps of paper and popped them up after adding my sentiment.  I thought it appropriate given my paper!

The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted Message Me from 2016.  A little bling finishes the card!

Supplies:  CS:  PTI white.  SU! black.  Pattern paper from stash.  Dies:  PTI brushed off rectangle and linen impression plate.  Stamps:  Clearly Besotted Message Me (2016).  Other:  Rhinestones.

It’s a new sketch challenge at As You See It.  And I love it!

I started with a base of vanilla cream that I ran thru the linen plate.  Then I added a half circle of pear pizzazz and the silver thread. 

I added the flagged pattern paper and finally the sentiment on a wonky die cut.  I couldn’t resist the sweet butterfly and string of rhinestones [which look really blurry here and I could not get a good pic without that happening - sorry about that!]

It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber!  The challenge requires you to either use a rainbow or rainbow colors on your card.

I went clean and simple (natch!) and created a rainbow with words.  I used my nifty Papertrey Ink Be set which I have had since 2016 and started stamping!

Each word is stamped in a color of the rainbow and are all things we should strive to be – right?

I started with some antique looking papers from my stash and used a curved die to create the two layers for the sketch.

Then I added some lace and adhered everything to the card base.  Finally, I added the sentiment and pearls and popped up on the card.

It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber and it’s one of my favorites!  Tic Tac Toe!  I am loving those more and more!

I opted for the top row of dies/sparkle/stars.  I die cut several stitched stars out of blueberry bushel, pineapple punch and granny apple green.  A weird combo of food themed paper names!

I added the sentiment from my PTI belated birthday sentiments from 2015.  I ran everything through the linen impression plate and then added the bling.

I used the sketch from CAS(E) This Sketch.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  A fun color challenge that I used to create a St. Patrick’s Day card.

I die cut the oval in soft suede and then used a leaf punch to create faux three leaf clovers out of granny apple green and shaded spruce.

I added everything to the card front, added some bling and the sentiment.

A new challenge is afoot at Retro Rubber!  It is time to earn your stripes and use them on a card.

This card did not turn out anything like when I started.  I was going to stamp the stripes and then ended up with pattern paper instead.  You just have to go with the flow!  I started by die cutting two stitched ovals and stamping the sentiment using my W+9 Strictly Sentiments stamp set from 2013. 

Then I flagged the ends of the striped paper (it pays to save scraps!), added some gold thread and then adhered everything together.  Finally, I popped up the sentiment and added some gold stars.

A fun new sketch challenge is at hand at As You See It!

I started with cutting some pattern papers and backing them with island indigo cardstock.  I placed the papers according to the sketch.

Then I stamped my sentiment and backed it with a bit of pattern paper.  I adhered it to the paper and added a bit of silver ribbon and a button.

Finally a bit of bling and island indigo dots.

It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber and we have a surprise for you!  We are partnering with Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!  We are using their sketch and pairing it with our requirement to use stamps older than a year.  This is double the fun! You can link up your entry with both challenges. 

I love a good sketch and this was a fun one!  I pulled out my W+9 Punny Produce: Peaches from 2014 and set to work.  I stamped the peach in black, peach parfait and pear pizzazz before die cutting the mini scalloped square.

Using my flag dies from Reverse Confetti, I die cut flags in some plaid and solid paper and stapled them together instead of running the flags across the top.  Then I popped up the mini square and added the sentiment!

I love this card!  Play along with Try Stampin’ and RRCB by linking up HERE and HERE!

It’s time for a new As You See It challenge.  This is a fill in the blank challenge. 

When I think simple, I think clean and simple.  I love a one layer card so I started with this lovely poppy image that I used my chalks on and then decided to add one small layer with my sentiment.

I loved how this card turned out!  Play along and link up HERE!
