It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber and we are all about the summer!

As I was getting ready to make my card, I noticed a couple of my teamies used flip flops and had the same sentiment so I made it a trio because I couldn’t resist!

I started by chalking a sun on the card base.  Then I die cut the flip flops and sunglasses out of fun colored paper and adhered to the card.

Finally I added the sentiment (from my PTI flipping out stamp set from 2012) and was done.

I started by stamping several images from my SSS artsy shapes stamp set.  I stamped the images in lovely lipstick, soft suede, call me clover and daffodil delight.  Then I added the sentiment in call me clover.

I die cut the card front with my MFT wonky stitched rectangles and then backed with a piece of lovely lipstick before adhering to the card base.  I finished it off with a few rhinestones.

Welcome to a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a fun tic tac toe so let’s get to it!

I chose to go with ribbon, emboss, birthday.  I started by stamping some balloons in soft colors.  Then I added the sentiment and some balloon strings.  The stamps came from two different sets of stamps (SSS big birthday wishes – 2015 and Paper Smooches sentiment sampler) that I have had for more than five or six years. 

Then I embossed the white card stock (with my linen plate) and added an embossed strip of X's under the sentiment before adding my pool party ribbon.

I ran thru the linen plate and die cut with my cross stitch rectangles.  Finally I added a sentiment, a strip of ribbon and pearls.

It’s a new As You See It Challenge!  It’s a speed challenge with the theme of flowers!

I started by using a multiple stamp set of wildflowers from Rubbernecker.  I stamped the several layers in appropriate colors and then ran the card thru my linen impression plate.

I just had to use this lovely sentiment.  I have had it for several years and never used it.  Shame on me!  I die cut around it and then popped it up on the card base.

Time left:  0.00.  Let me tell you - doing the multiple stamping took up more time than I thought!  I was just pressing the sentiment on the base when the alarm rang!

It’s a new As You See It Challenge!  It’s rainbow theme week!

I started by stamping different circles in the rainbow colors on the card front.

Then I added the sentiment (which is not where I wanted it but I smudged some red ink on the paper and needed to cover it up – you can’t see it can you!).

I added a bit of bling and die cut the image before adhered to the crumbcake card base.

Welcome to a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  For this challenge we are all about squares!

I started by cutting three 3X3 cards out of cream cardstock and using just a simple small image on them.  These came from my Stampin’ Up! Postage Collection stamp set from around 2013.

Then I added some lines to make a square on the card and added a different sentiment on each card as well.  These are from my 2016 Clearly Besotted Message Me stamp set.

It’s time for a new As You See It challenge!  It’s a fun recipe card challenge.

I started by die cutting a diagonal tag.  I ran it plus the card base thru the linen plate for some texture.

Then I die cut some leaves and a flower out of pattern paper as well as one out of solid cardstock.  I adhered the tag to the base after adding some thick twine.

Finally I added the sentiment and bling.
