It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use azure afternoon, granny apple green and shaded spruce.

I started by stamping leaves from SU! gorgeous leaves in the required colors and adding splatter as well to make my background.  Then I added some strips of shaded spruce and granny apple green dsp to the base and die cut.

I die cut a couple of leaves out of azure afternoon and granny apple green and popped those up with the sentiment.  I love how it turned out because these colors are really amazing together!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a fun sketch challenge!

This was such a great sketch!  So much so that I broke out my brand new SU! sea turtle stamp set.  Team member Jan Clothier is a champ at this set and after all of her beautiful cards – I had to have it!  (I just hope I did it justice!)

I started by running some white card stock thru my dotted circles embossing folder and my linen plate.  Then I die cut using my stitched rectangles.  I should have done this in reverse order because it flattened all my circles.  Lol.  Then I added some dsp and the twine.

I stamped the water and turtle, die cutting using the stitched rectangle and fussy cutting the turtle.  I added the sentiment and then put everything together according to the sketch.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a speed challenge to make a card with fruit!

I dug out some old pear stamps and my pear pizzazz ink and paper – naturally.  I started the clock and set to work.  I cut down the card base, a piece of black and the white card front and ran them all through the linen plate.

I stamped random pears and only inked in one set of pears with the pear pizzazz and some crushed curry ink.  I stamped the sentiment and then used my washi punch on it and a piece of pear pizzazz.  I layered everything and was done.  With 2 seconds to spare.  I was sure I had more time than that left on the clock!  That ten minutes goes by fast in these speed challenges!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a theme challenge to make a card with camping or outdoor stamps and/or paper.

I made my card before I remembered the camping part of the challenge image.  So my jeep and surfboard are on their way to a beach camp out!

I stamped my jeep, board and sentiment and backed with a bit of blue chalk.  I used my Heidi Swapp stamp set from her Stamp Therapy class.  I have had the stamp set for over a year.  In the end, I kept to my CAS style with this one.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a theme challenge to make a vintage or shabby chic card.  I am a CAS girl but I think I managed just fine on this one!

I started with a piece of country woods dsp that I stamped the floral image on.  Then, using masks, I inked up the image with my blending brushes.  I roughed up the edges before adhering to my layers of lost lagoon, wild wheat and pecan pie.

To help with the vintage feel, I stamped (lightly) some splatter and script in wild wheat around the edges and on the image a bit.  I stamped the sentiment and die cut, adding a bit of twine on the end of the sentiment and some below it.  I popped it up, added a dot and was done!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  We have a recipe challenge to make a card with trees, embossing folder, twine, shades of green and birthday.

I dug out my old SU! lovely as a tree stamp set and inked up the trees in granny apple green, old olive and garden green.  I added my birthday sentiment before adding my twine.  

Then I die cut with a stitched rectangle before adhering to a piece of granny apple green that I ran thru my woodgrain embossing folder.  I attached to the garden green base and was done!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a fill in the blank!  My favorite beach activity is collecting shells!

I live in a landlocked state so I rarely visit the beach.  We have lakes of course, but I am not much of a water person no matter if it is the ocean or a lake.  But!  When I do visit the ocean, I love to collect sea shells. 

I started by stamping some sand, shells and a bucket.  I die cut the shells and bucket then popped up on my card.  I added a summery sentiment and was done!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use daffodil delight, blueberry bushel, granny apple green and white.

I opted for my standard CAS style with a simple but I think effective card.  I die cut some paisley pieces out of daffodil delight, blueberry bushel and granny apple green.

I stamped the sentiment and then arranged the pieces around it.  I added a few blue rhinestones and was done!'

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a fun sketch challenge!

I love a great sketch and this one is definitely open to interpretation.  I don’t know that I did it justice but my mind went to camping so I searched out some camping stamps and got started.  I stamped and colored my images before die cutting. 

The sentiment snugged up nicely with the car and trailer so that I didn’t have to ruin the clean lines of the Tahitian tide that I added underneath.  Just a nice pop of color all around!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a tic tac toe and I opted for sequins, summer and die cut.

I started by stamping the shells, bucket and thongs from my Lawn Fawn Life is Good stamp set from 2014.  I colored with my alcohol markers and then die cut.

I die cut the chair from SU! summer splash, adhered to the card base and then filled in the beachy stuff around it.  A quick sentiment and the sequins completed the card.
