Welcome to a new challenge at Retro Rubber!  It’s a color challenge to use black, grey, white and red.

I started by die cutting a heart out of cherry cobbler and adhering to the white base.  I die cut two thermoses out of cherry cobbler plaid and grey plaid before adding a black lid/cup.

Finally I added the sentiment (from PTI Cozy Christmas from 2016) and some bling.  This card takes me back to my childhood and when my dad would head out to work on the farm he always had his thermos of coffee.  I miss those days!

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.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  The challenge is to use shades of blue and make a card in ten minutes or less.

I started by running my blueberry bushel card base thru my linen plate.  Then I ran the white card front thru the linen plate and die cut the stitched rectangle.

I stamped the feathers in three shades of blue – marina mist, bashful blue and soft sky.  The sentiment was stamped in blueberry bushel.  I adhered the card together and then decided it needed some bling.

With just over two minutes left, I thought I had plenty of time to put some bling on there.  Well, I didn’t!  I had just found what I wanted to use when the timer went off.  So the card was done with 0 seconds left and no bling!

Welcome to a new As You See It Challenge.  This one is fill in the blank!

My favorite color to wear is lime green!  So I used my retro circles and some lemon lime twist ink to stencil the background.

Then I added the sentiment that I backed with a bit of black.  I finished off with a few black rhinestones.

For our new challenge at As You See It, we have a color challenge of calypso coral, daffodil delight and mossy meadow.

I started by stamping two hibiscus flowers in calypso coral.  I added a bit of leaves and the flower stems in the appropriate colors.

I die cut around the images using my stitched arch and popped up over a panel of daffodil delight and mossy meadow that I centered on kraft cardstock.  I finished off with a few dots and bling for interest.

It’s Anything Goes at Retro Rubber! 

I started with a funky die cut rectangle out of some musical paper.

Then I flagged a couple of scraps of paper and popped them up after adding my sentiment.  I thought it appropriate given my paper!

The sentiment is from Clearly Besotted Message Me from 2016.  A little bling finishes the card!

It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber and we have a surprise for you!  We are partnering with Try Stampin’ on Tuesday!  We are using their sketch and pairing it with our requirement to use stamps older than a year.  This is double the fun! You can link up your entry with both challenges. 

I love a good sketch and this was a fun one!  I pulled out my W+9 Punny Produce: Peaches from 2014 and set to work.  I stamped the peach in black, peach parfait and pear pizzazz before die cutting the mini scalloped square.

Using my flag dies from Reverse Confetti, I die cut flags in some plaid and solid paper and stapled them together instead of running the flags across the top.  Then I popped up the mini square and added the sentiment!

I love this card!  Play along with Try Stampin’ and RRCB by linking up HERE and HERE!

It’s time for a new As You See It challenge.  This is a fill in the blank challenge. 

When I think simple, I think clean and simple.  I love a one layer card so I started with this lovely poppy image that I used my chalks on and then decided to add one small layer with my sentiment.

I loved how this card turned out!  Play along and link up HERE!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  This challenge requires using all of the elements listed on the challenge image.  I love these challenges!!

I started with a card base of white and added some pattern paper in both dots and stripes.  The pattern paper is poppy parade so I added a bit of solid poppy parade to separate the patterns. 

I added a cut card front and a bow to finish all the requirements!

We are starting a new challenge at Retro Rubber!  It’s a tic tac toe courtesy of Jan Clothier.  I puzzled a bit on this one and finally went for the bottom row of animals, windows and circles.

I rolled the window and circles together by die cutting a stitched circle in the card front that I popped up on the card base.

Before adding the card front, however, I stamped this sweet puppy and colored with my pencils.  It is from the SU! Bella & Friends.  This stamp set came out in 2016 and I purchased it as soon as I saw it that year.

I added a bit of chalk around the image to ground the little guy and then stamped the sentiment on the card front.  I love the saying and always think of Toy Story when I see it.  And now I am humming the tune.
