Welcome to Retro Rubber Challenge 55! Please join us!

Hi thanks for stopping by!  Today is the day, Retro Rubber's Challenge 55 begins!  The challenge this time involves using a stamp one year old or older, and hearts!  Below is the challenge graphic and the card I created for this challenge:

To create this card, I used a stamp set dated 2016 from the Cutting Cafe Shop, named Feb 14.   Since it is now 2017, I am just squeaking by in having a set one year old or older!  Whew!  I have actually had this set for a while, and love it so much!  I have never used it before!  

I paired this puzzle stamp with my Copic markers, Ranger Black Archival ink, white cardstock, dimensional adhesive, Wink of Stella in Silver, some EK heart stickers, silver twine, and patterned paper from Taylored Expressions (Formula for Love).  

Quick and easy!  Won't you join us for this fun challenge?  I'd love to see your creations!  Then come back to the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog a week from Sunday to learn the challenge winner!

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello! Welcome to Retro Rubber Challenge number 54!

Hello and thank you for joining us for Retro Rubber Challenge Blog's Challenge 54!  The challenge this time involves using a stamp one year old or older, and the following theme, snow.  Beneath is the challenge graphic and the card I created for the challenge.

To create this card, I used a white invitation sized card, folded.  I took a piece of silver metallic card stock, rounded the edges, and stamped the snowflakes shown using a stamp set I  have owned for at least a year, from Recollections named Christmas Noel.  I just love this set because it has 10! beautiful snowflakes of various sizes and designs!

Using Versamark embossing ink, I stamped the snowflakes onto the cardstock.  I then used light blue embossing powder and my heat gun to melk the powder.  I added gems to the center of every snowflake.  In Microsoft Word, I typed the text and printed onto card stock.  I trimmed the cardstock and added the strip to the card front using dimensional adhesive.

This card was super easy and fun to make.  I would love you to join our challenge, and I would love to see your creation!  Please create something fun now!  Then  join us back a week from Sunday at the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog to see who has won this challenge!  Best of luck!
