It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a color challenge to use a variety of purples and a cream/peachy/pink color.

I went with my usual CAS and die cut some sweaters.  I used my distress inks and blending tools to create variegated sweaters.  I love these dies – they are from a Swedish stamp company called Gummiapan.

I popped them up on a base of cream cardstock and added the sentiment from My Favorite Things Warmest Wishes from sometime before 2017.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use berry burst, basic gray, smokey slate and peach pie.

I started by stamping and coloring this sweet donkey image.  I used peach pie on his nose and ears, smokey slate on him and berry burst for the flowers.

I die cut the image and then popped it up over a strip of basic gray dsp.  I stamped and die cut the sentiment, added to the image and was done!

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 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 Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a color challenge to use white, blue, brown and black.

I opted for a clean and simple masculine birthday card.  I die cut a piece of boho blue and crumbcake with my shiplap die.

I stamped the image from my SU! Artistically Asian stamp set (from around 2016) onto white, then adhered my shiplap pieces and stamped the image again.  I finished the card with the birthday sentiment from Clearly Besotted Message Me (2016).

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a color challenge to use to use midnight blue, violet blue, sky blue and white.

I really struggled with this challenge because I just couldn’t come up with something that I really liked.  In the end, I played around with some collage stamping which is a go to for me. 

I used the required colors with my Stampin’ Up! French Foliage (2011) and Artfully Layered (2022) and my Clearly Besotted Message Me (2016).  I die cut using a postage die cut, popped it up and was done!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use melon mambo, crushed curry, granny apple green and mossy meadow.

I stamped and heat embossed in black before water coloring using the four required colors.  This stamp lends itself to water coloring and I liked that I could soften the boldness of the colors.    

I did some black speckles on the card and die cut with my deckled edges.  Finally, I added some black rhinestones before adhering to the base.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a color challenge to use at least three of these five colors – yellow, green, brown, blue and white.

I started by stamping the image using my Close To My Heart Fabulous You stamps that I have had for well over 10 years.  I colored with brown, yellow, blue and green before die cutting with my deckled edge circles.

I popped up the image, stamped the sentiment sideways and added some pops of color with dots.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use misty moonlight, copper clay, white, and a neutral.

I needed a retirement card and just got my gone fishing dies so perfect timing!  I started by stamping a background from my SU! gorgeous leaves stamp set.  I think it’s supposed to be a woodgrain but it is doubling for my water.  I used misty moonlight ink after I stamped it off once.

I die cut the bobber three times in white and then once in copper clay (leftover pieces that had been woodgrain embossed).  I layered up the bobber and then added the copper clay on the bottom half and for the hook.  I stamped my sentiment and then ran it through my twisted rope embossing folder.

After that I layered the white on some black and then on the misty moonlight base.  I am super happy with the results and also hope the recipient recognizes the fishing tackle.  LOL!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use poppy parade, Tahitian tide, gray granite and crumbcake.

I started by digging out one of my favorite stamp sets – Stampin’ Up!’s Bella & Friends.  I love the images so much!  So I got to working stamping my image and coloring using my alcohol markers. 

I die cut a piece of gray granite to create a frame for this sweet image and then popped it up on a gray granite base.  I got all of my required colors in and am super happy with this sweet card.  A few rhinestones for bling and I was done!
