Welcome to a new Retro Rubber Challenge! Just use buttons on your card and a stamp older than a year and you are good to go!

I started with my PTI Fancy Footworks stamp set from 2013. This was a stamp set that I had to have when it came out because I loved the dance steps.  So I stamped the “her” steps in harvest gold and the “his” steps in blueberry sky. I ran the card front and the card base thru the linen impression plate as well.

I stamped the sentiment and cut out using my washi tape die. I also die cut a couple more washi tapes in yellow and blue so I could layer them up.

I layered the front over some crushed curry and then put everything together on a base of midnight muse. Be sure to play along with us and link up HERE!

I am entering this card in the CAS(E) this Sketch challenge.

A huge thank you to Nance at Paper Players for selecting THIS card as A Cut Above!

On a personal note, my life outside of card making (not that we like to admit we have one *wink*) has gotten a bit more hectic than I expected so I am rolling back the number of posts that I typically do each week. I hope to post 2-3 times a week but it may be down to once a week for a while. Thank you for understanding!!

Thanks for stopping by today!

It’s time for a new challenge at As You See It! This time we have a color challenge for you – pink, green, and light yellow.

I started with the SU! number of years set and stamped the floral image using all three colors – pink pirouette, garden green and so saffron. Then I backed the white with a piece of so saffron and garden green.

I opted to use some vanilla cream to house the sentiment and die cut using my washi tape die. I adhered everything in accordance with the sketch that I borrowed from the Fusion Challenge.

Welcome to the second week of the Retro Rubber Challenge. Just use baby critters on a card and you are in!

I dug around in my stamp stash and found this old SU! stamp set Love Bug that has been around since before 2009. I stamped and colored the image before die cutting a stitched circle and then a scalloped circle out of crisp cantaloupe.

I die cut a stitched fishtail flag and adhered everything to the card base. Be sure to play along with the RR challenge and link up HERE!

Happy Monday! Today’s card was made for the Freshly Made Sketches Challenge(sketch) and The Paper Players (CAS vehicle theme) Challenge.

I started by stamping a car and this fun sentiment on white. I used my colored pencils on the car and light beams before die cutting the stitched angle.

Fun vehicle themed paper adds additional interest under the white card front. I think this may be one of my favorite cards as I just love the paper and the sentiment.

Happy Easter!

Today’s card was made for the Flower Challenge. I haven’t had a chance to play along with that challenge for a very long time.

I stamped and colored in the tulip image and then die cut with my mini scallop stitched rectangle.

I backed a piece of pattern paper with some peekaboo peach and adhered to the card base. I added a sentiment and attached the tulips and was done.

I ran the card thru the linen impression plate and then added three buttons to complete the sketch.

Welcome to a new Retro Rubber Challenge! It’s a theme challenge to use baby critters on a card.

This was actually more of a challenge than I thought! I dug deep and used my SU! Barnyard Babies stamp set that came out in 2015.

I stamped the lamb and a little chick and colored with my pencils and some chalk. I added a sentiment and a few pearls and a candy dot. I added a bit of pattern paper as well to be able to play along with the sketch challenge at Fab Friday.
