Hey,
As you know I am in London this week, but that doesn't mean I am not joining in with the rest of the DT for the latest fun Retro Rubber challenge.
This time we have a sketch for you -
As you know I am a big fan of sketches. I rotated this one, because I wanted to use one of the stamps from the Unity Stamp Co 'Today I am Happy' set - from May 2016..
I messily watercoloured the girl and die-cut her to fit onto my card blank, I die-cut an embossed panel with the same size die to create the other panel - I don't think my photograph shows it terribly well!
The sentiment is a new one from a batch of Market Street Stamps that I bought second-hand, I heat embossed it in white, so it would pop a bit.
Again another super simple make.
Your turn to show us your interpretation of the sketch, but first pop over to Retro Rubber and get inspired by the things that the rest of the DT have made.
Challenge ends August 25th. Don't forget to use a stamp over a year old and tell us the age of it, that is part of the fun of our challenge and please only enter 10 challenges including Retro Rubber.

Great card and I love the white sentiment. Hope you're having some decent weather in London x
ReplyDeleteCool card! It's hard to call it CAS with all the coloring but I love the striking results. I never think to make the sentiment vertical - have to try that a go!
ReplyDeleteClaire, love your card, love the girl and that cute hat. The sentiment really makes the card pop! I hope you are having a wonderful time in London.
ReplyDeleteClaire, this card is so striking! Love your colors and coloration! However, the neatest detail is the panel behind the pretty girl... it is so subtle! Great take on the sketch!
ReplyDeleteThis is a little beauty! I love the blue and really am digging the blue on blue. Your coloring just gets better and better! Gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I'm so surprised that you bought this girl so recently. Here I was thinking it was such a retro image! Love the blues - that card base is my favourite colour. Striking and effective. I hope you're having a great time in the UK.
ReplyDeleteThe blue on blue is so striking! Great coloring! I love this stamp! That embossing is so perfect here, a perfect pop! Hope you are having a great trip!
