It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a fill in the blank challenge.  The color I use least in my crafting is...flirty flamingo!

Confession:  This card was made for our previous challenge.  As I was making it - I had the thought that I never use flirty flamingo and shame on me because it is a lovely color!  You are probably wondering why I didn't post it for our last challenge...because I broke the rules and used green and two neutrals (white and brown) when you are allowed one neutral and only the four colors in the challenge.  I didn't have time to make another card so I had to sit out the challenge.  However...sometimes mistakes can become a card for the next challenge!

I stamped the apple harvest branch and colored the apples with my calypso coral and flirty flamingo blends.  I used crumbcake and granny apple green for the branch and leaves.

I stamped the sentiment and some flowers that I colored with bubble bath and daffodil delight.  I fussy cut them and added to the card front.  I backed the white front with flirty flamingo then adhered to the calypso coral base.  I ended up making another card with flirty flamingo while I had the cardstock out.  That means I am probably good with this color for awhile.  LOL.

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a fun sketch to try!

I started by stamping and die cutting the branch of spring berries.  It is from my Papertrey Ink Spring Beautiful Berries from 2017.  I also die cut a postage stamp from white to pop the berries on.

The layer behind the sketch is aluminum dryer tape.  I learned this trick a long time ago and yet I rarely use it.  It adds shine and its tape!  I ran the tape thru my linen plate for some texture and then attached to the flirty flamingo card base.  I added the sentiment (Clearly Besotted Message Me 2016) and was done.

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

I started by stamping the windowpane plaid in soft sea foam on some rustic cream cardstock.  The stamp is from The Greetery in 2019.  I die cut some panels using my shiplap dies which I adhered to a card base of rustic white.

I die cut the heart in pretty in pink and popped up over some silver string.  I added the sentiment from Papertrey Ink's Keep It Simple Valentine stamp set from 2014.  I finished off with some bling.

I started with some Bermuda bay and coastal cabana paper that I adhered to the card front according to the sketch.

It’s a new challenge at Retro Rubber!  We have a tic tac toe challenge so I opted to use the pattern paper, die cut, and sympathy row.

I started by adding a piece of pattern paper to my card base.  I stamped the daffodil image (from my Stampin’ Up! You’re Inspiring – 2018) and colored using some chalks.  I die cut the image so that I could adhere to the card base.

I stamped the sentiment (Clearly Besotted Message Me 2016) and then die cut using my washi tape dies.  Finally I popped it up and then added a few rhinestones.

Happy July!  It’s time for a new challenge at House of Cards!  All you need to do is use stripes and/or the colors in the image for your card.

I opted to use both stripes and colors in my card.  So I started by stamping and die cutting the daisy image.  Then I used a few colored pencils to add a bit more dimension to the flowers.

I love my washi tape die for sentiments so I used it for this one.  I die cut in white and crumbcake to make the sentiment pop a bit.

I cut a chunk of striped paper and backed it with crumbcake as well.  After adhering everything to the card base, I added a few pearls and was done.

I started with the SU! number of years set and stamped the floral image using all three colors – pink pirouette, garden green and so saffron. Then I backed the white with a piece of so saffron and garden green.

I opted to use some vanilla cream to house the sentiment and die cut using my washi tape die. I adhered everything in accordance with the sketch that I borrowed from the Fusion Challenge.

Today I made a very clean and simple sympathy card. I started with one of my favorite flower stamps called cornflowers by Rubbernecker Stamps.

I used my markers to ink up the image in crisp cantaloupe, calypso coral, pear pizzazz and garden green.

I stamped the image, added the sentiment and a few pearls and enamel dots. A nice one layer card for a difficult reason.
