It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use white, silver, blackberry bliss and granny apple green.

I die cut some branches in white and then some stalks in granny apple green and blackberry bliss.  I die cut the market basked in silver.

I also die cut a rectangle and then layered everything on it.  I added the sentiment and was done.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s Anything Goes!

I started with my Stampin’ Up! French Foliage stamp set from way back around 2011.  I stamped some images in random colors.  My sentiment is from my Papertrey Ink Scripted stamp set from 2016.

I die cut the image and then popped up over some crushed curry twine and was done.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  Time for a sketch challenge so I went with a fall theme.

I stamped my branch and leaves in rich cocoa and then used alcohol markers to color.  I drew inspiration from the pattern paper for the leaves.

I die cut the card front and then added a piece of early espresso to back it and the sentiment strip. I continued that theme with my pattern paper.  A bit of bling and I was done.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s time for a Tic Tac Toe so I opted for greens, trees/foliage, and die cut/punch.

I broke out my Papertrey Ink Topiary Trio stamp set from 2014 along with its die set.  One thing I like about using my old stamps is that I am sometimes shocked how long I have had them!

I die cut the tree and added some ink to age it a bit.  I die cut a piece of white cardstock, stamped the sentiment and adhered the topiary.

I centered on the base and was done.  The die on this one is interesting in the fact that you can push up the little cuts to make it look more “alive”.  I don’t know that my attempts can be seen that well in my photo but it looks pretty cool in real life.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a speed challenge to make a silly or funny card.

I would say I went with punny and maybe a bit silly.  I stamped this crazy frog image and colored with my alcohol markers.

I die cut the image, popped it up and added the sentiment.  I ran everything thru my linen plate and added a bit of seam binding to finish the card off.  I used 9 minutes and 30 seconds.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  We have a lovely sketch this time around.

I started by stamping and die cutting my coffee cup image from my Stampin’ Up! Merry Café stamp set from 2017.  I stamped the sentiment and then die cut to put on the coffee cup instead of below the image.

I die cut a curved edge and added some pattern paper to make the basic part of the sketch and then added the coffee cup.  I used some punched leaves and a bit of bling to take the place of the sentiment since I used that on the coffee holder.

I was quite pleased with the outcome but full truth – totally not a fan of pumpkin spice.  I love the color and pumpkins but it’s a firm no to the flavor.  So for all of you pumpkin spice lovers – this one’s for you!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a theme challenge and it is all up in the air.

I went for birds and created this sweet birthday card.  I stamped and die cut the branch and birds.  These are layering stamps and I really love how they turned out.

To make them pop a bit, I added a stitched triangle underneath to also serve as a focal point.  I added the sentiment and was done.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s time for an inspiration challenge so here is my take.

I was inspired to use the colors and make a mini bouquet.  I used my stamps from Papertrey Ink Bitty Bouquet from 2015.

I die cut a lattice out of grayish polka dot paper for the background (using the tabletop in the picture for that inspiration).  I used rustic white for my card base and for the little square I popped my flowers up on.  A small sentiment, thread and some bling and I was done.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It is a recipe challenge to use wheat/grass, embossing folder, twine, gingham and crumbcake.

This was hard for me!  I stopped and started several different versions of cards until I landed on this.  I started by die cutting wheat in rustic cream and crumbcake.

I ran the rustic cream cardstock through my woodgrain embossing folder.  I cut a curved edge and added some gingham pattern paper with a curved edge as well.  I stamped and die cut the sentiment and then layered everything on the card.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  The challenge is to choose a mode of transportation.

I opted for this sweet scooter image from the Stampin’ Up! On The Grow stamp set.  I have had this set for over 10 years.  Time flies!

I stamped the image and then colored with my alcohol markers.  I stamped the sentiment and popped it up and was done.
