It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a tic tac toe and I opted for frame, snowman and trees.

I started by die cutting a window frame on the front of the card.  Then I opted to do something a bit different for me by creating the scene on the inside of the card.

I stamped the fence and swag before adding and popping up the die cut tree and snowman.  These images are from my Papertrey Ink Fence Line Winter stamp set from 2018.

I added the sentiment (PTI Cozy Christmas 2016) and was done.  I like that the surprise is on the inside of the card!

Supplies:  CS:  PTI white.  Stamps:  PTI fence line winter (2018) and cozy Christmas (2016).  Dies:  PTI linen plate and fence line winter.  MFT peek a boo wonky windows.  Inks:  SU! cherry cobbler, early espresso, crumbcake, pumpkin pie, old olive and pear pizzazz.

It’s a new challenge at As You See It!  It’s a theme challenge to make a Christmas card.

I started by die cutting the grid design in white.  I cut a piece of cherry cobbler to go behind the white.  But before I adhered them together, I ran the cherry cobbler through my sheet music impression plate.  It’s hard to see but you can just see the faint outlines of notes and staff. 

I then stamped the small stable and star.  I added the sentiment and some rhinestones to finish off the card.  Once it was done, I spent considerable time rethinking my color combinations but in the end, I decided to keep them.  To be honest, if I was to redo the card, I would have probably swapped out the stable color to cherry cobbler.  Hmmm…I guess I may not be as satisfied as I thought?  LOL!  Don’t you hate it when you start to second guess yourself?

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

I am definitely feeling the fall vibes.  I broke out a stamp set that I have owned since it came out in 2021 but never used – Stampin’ Up Gorgeous Leaves.  The leaves really are gorgeous so I stamped them on a crumbcake background that I stamped off once before applying to the card front.

I added the sentiment from Papertrey Ink Keep It Simple Blessed (2017) at an angle and then die cut, added some dots and twine and adhered to the card base.  Easy fall fun!

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

I started by stamping some palm trees and then die cutting them in a stitched triangle shape.    I stamped a little bit of sand and used some chalks to create a little sun and blue sky.

I stamped the jeep and then fussy cut.  I was feeling the vibe of someone who drives their jeep to the beach so they can surf.  I grew up landlocked so I have no idea what that actually feels like.  Lol.   I adhered everything to the card base and added the sentiment and was done!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a theme challenge to make a card with rainbows or use rainbow colors!

I started by stamping this sweet image from My Favorite Things Pure Innocence Freckles.  I have had this stamp for over 5 years – probably longer.

I used my alcohol markers to color her in using the colors of the rainbow.  I added a little gray under her feet to ground her and a little chalky blue around her (which did not photo well).  A sentiment popped up and I was done.

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

I originally made this card for challenge 209 which was the summer theme challenge but ended up doing a different card for that one instead.  So this just slid right into the anything goes challenge.

I stamped and die cut my Ferris wheel and a couple of tickets.  I used my Lawn Fawn Admit One stamp set from 2014.

I used alcohol markers to color in the Ferris wheel with some bright colors.  I popped it on my card with the tickets and was done!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a theme challenge to make a card with summer related stamps and/or paper!

I started by stamping some lemons using my The Greetery Lemon Blossom stamp set from 2019.  The rest of the design team all went with a fruit theme so I had to follow along.  There is nothing better than a glass of cold lemonade on a hot summer day (unless it’s an ice cold beer!)!

I die cut the images and a cutout in the white card front.  I used parakeet party as my base and then added the sentiment and the die cuts.  A few dots finish the card!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a theme challenge to make a card that celebrates spring!

I love spring flowers and opted to go with some tulips.  I stamped them using my Clearly Besotted Miniature Florals from 2015 and colored using alcohol markers.  I die cut using my deckled edges and then did a daffodil delight die cut to back the image.

I used crumb cake as my base and some daffodil delight seam binding for the ribbon.  My sentiment is from my often used Clearly Besotted Message Me from 2016.  We have secret pals at work so my pal will get this thank you card next month for all the goodies I have received over the past nine months.  I have been spoiled!

It’s a new Retro Rubber Challenge!  It’s a theme challenge to make a birthday card!

I dug through my stash and stumbled across this old stamp set from Simon Says Stamp called Tag Sayings.  It is from 2013 and had some fun birthday themed stamps and tag dies.  Score!

I stamped the birthday sentiment and then die cut with the tag die.  I added some confetti type washi on the bottom of the tag and then cut two more out of poppy parade and pool party.

I added some twine to the tags and popped up on the soft stone card base.  Some little stamped balloons that I colored with alcohol inks finished off the card.

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

I started with my Simon Says Stamp Many Thanks stamp set from 2015.  I stamped the first rose stamp randomly using pale papaya ink and then used grapefruit grove for the second layer.  I added the two tone leaves in soft sea foam and pear pizzazz.

I stamped the sentiment and die cut with my deckled edges as well as die cutting the card front.  I added some ribbon, popped up the sentiment and adhered to the card base.  I finished it off with some dots and rhinestones.
