It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a tic tac toe and I opted for the die cut/copper/pattern paper.

I started by die cutting the sketchy star out of copper foil paper.  I used my wonky dies on some pattern paper and completed my requirements for the tic tac toe.

I layered everything and popped up the copper star before adding the sentiment from my Papertrey Ink Simple Stars stamp set from 2014.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a color challenge to use petal pink, polished pink, orchid oasis and starry sky.

Using the required colors, I did a little blending of the colors using my linen stencil.  I then die cut the paper to create the background for my flower silhouette.

I used my SU! harvest dies to die cut the flower from starry sky paper and then adhered to the blended paper.  I layered on white card stock and then popped up a sentiment as the final touch.  I loved how this turned out.

I started by die cutting a cattail out of white cardstock and then coloring with my alcohol markers.  I die cut a pierced square and stamped the sentiment from my Papertrey Ink Phrases and Praises stamp set from 2015. 

I cut a couple of washi tags and then layered everything together.  Finally, I added the rest of the sentiment to line up with the sketch requirements and was done!

I started with some images to create a bit of a monochromatic winter scene.  Trees, cabin and deer feel a bit wintery to me.  Or maybe I am already dreaming of winter?  Yikes!  What am I thinking!

I added the sentiment and die cut using my deckled edges rectangles, popped up on the card base and was done.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  This time we are charged with using circles on a card.

I started by stenciling a background of circles out of lemon lime twist and Tahitian tide inks.  I stamped the sentiment from my SU! forever lovely stamp set from 2019.

I die cut a stitched circle for the sentiment and backed with lemon lime twist.  Finally, I die cut the stenciled background and popped up on Tahitian tide after adding a bit of twine and some bling.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a speed challenge to make a belated birthday card.

I colored my leaf stamp with my zig markers and then spritzed with water before stamping on a piece of watercolor paper.  I cut a piece of pattern paper and a piece of rustic cream to back the leaf image.

Then I cut a piece of burlap and a piece of pear pizzazz ribbon and layered everything together.  I added a few colored dots and the sentiment, did a bit of black splatter and was done.  With 8 seconds left!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a color challenge and celebrates colors of the 70s.  We need to use three of these colors – harvest gold, avocado green, tomato red, burnt orange or brown.

For my card today, I pulled out a House Mouse stamp from 2020 and paired it up with a sentiment from my Papertrey Ink Christmas Critters sentiments from 2016.  This was such a happy accident as I was searching for the perfect sentiment and found it!

I stamped the image and then colored with my alcohol markers.  I die cut and then layered on poppy parade, old olive, mango melody and soft suede card stock.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a theme challenge to use beverages on a card.

Now wine is my favorite beverage but I do love a martini now and again.  I love House Mouse stamps and have had this stamp for many a year and thought it would be perfect for this challenge.  I stamped the image and colored with my alcohol markers.

I die cut the image and then popped it up on some granny apple green cardstock with a bit of thick linen trim.  I added the fun sentiment and was done!

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

I started by stamping a boxwood heart with calypso coral and blushing bride.  The boxwood heart is from The Greetery in February 2021.  I die cut it and then die cut a deco piece so that it can serve as the background.

I die cut love twice to add some depth and then put everything together.  My final two steps were the always and forever from the boxwood stamp set and some bling.   I now have one wedding card should I need it this summer!

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a recipe challenge to use a die cut, subtle colors, embossing folder, something shiny and something that starts with a b.

I started by water coloring some paper with a light yellow and turquoise.  I ran the paper thru an embossing folder and crimped edge die cut.

I stamped two bottles in coordinating colors and die cut them.  Finally, I stamped the sentiment and layered everything up with some bling for my shiny bit.
