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.
