It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s anything goes!

I started by stamping this image from my Art Impressions Beach Babes stamp set from 2014.  I colored using my alcohol markers and then die cut.

I added a piece of granny apple green and some twine before adhering all together.  I stamped and popped up the sentiment and was done.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It is a fill in the blank challenge to name a favorite technique.  I have many favorites but went with coloring for this challenge.  Just like a lot of people, I find coloring very soothing!

I started with my happy hedgehogs stamps from SU!  I love me some hedgies!  I stamped up the scene and then used my alcohol markers to color away.

I fussy cut the butterfly and popped up on the card after die cutting the images and backing with some daffodil delight pattern paper.  I stamped the sentiment and popped it up as well.  Finally, I added some dots and was done.

I had time this weekend to make up a card that fits three challenges.  I am playing along with The Paper Players (theme challenge of love and friendship), The Card Concept (I was inspired by the colors to make my clean and layered card) and Sunday Stamps (that provided the sketch)!

I dug out my PTI pack your bags stamp set that hasn’t seen the light of day in a long while for the sentiment and used my dies to cut two pieces of luggage that I adhered to a white card front.

I die cut the card front and a piece of pattern paper and arranged them according to the sketch.  Finally, I added the sentiment which could be used for love or friendship.  This was a fun card to make but it was because these three challenges worked beautifully together.

I started by die cutting some pattern paper and a square of crumb cake that I ran thru my woodgrain embossing folder.

I started by stamping the flowers in calypso coral and pear pizzazz.  The image is from the Papertrey Ink Flower Favorites stamp set from 2015.  I also stamped the sentiment which is from My Favorite Things Delicate Pretty Poppies from 2016.

I backed the images with a piece of calypso coral cardstock and then distressed the edges a bit.  I added a piece of coral, doily and button to complete the sketch.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It.  It’s a sketch challenge and you know how I love those!

I started by stamping this cute little elephant image and coloring with my alcohol markers.  I stamped the sentiment and die cut using my wonky stitched rectangles before backing with a piece of purple posy.

I cut a strip of white card stock, added two eyelets and the twine before layering everything on the card base.  I love how this turned out!

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.
