Retro Rubber Challenge #256 - Time to get sketchy...

Hey,

Welcome to another fun Retro Rubber challenge.

We have a sketch for you this time.

You know how much I love a sketch!

I decided to make my card a mini slim. I love Taylored Expressions cut-to-size Kraft card stock panels. I used one here and a Tim Holtz heart stencil with Festive Berries Distress Oxide ink. I splattered a bit of water over the stenciled hearts for a bit of interest. 

I knew when I saw the sketch that I would dig out the awesome Vertical Greetings set by Stampin' Up, which I've had since 2016. I cut my panel to fit the sketch and added the fun sentiment. 

Show us your interpretation of the sketch, pop over to Retro Rubber, and get inspired by the things the DT have made.

Challenge ends June 13th.

Don't forget to tell us the age of your stamp, that is part of the fun of our challenge, and please only enter 5 challenges including Retro Rubber.

Retro Rubber Challenge #236 - Sketchy time

Hey,

Welcome to another fun Retro Rubber challenge.

I am super excited today, as my Goddaughter and her mother arrive today for a visit, fun times ahead!

This time we have a sketch with a twist. Time to make a slimline card.

I tried slimline cards, but I felt they were too big for my style, I am pretty CAS and they always felt a bit empty! Once I discovered mini slimline I was hooked.

For this card I rotated the sketch. I love this stamp set by Papertrey Ink 'Stacked Sentiments' I have had it since 2020 and it always stamps beautifully, you also get a large thanks, hello and today and a bunch of mini sentiment stamps to use along side the bigger ones, which I have done here. 

To create the border I used x2 of the tiny detail stamps that come with the set in the same colour ink and I added some bling to represent the little circle detail in the sketch.

It came together really well and I just love that Jelly Donut ink by Taylored Expressions.

Show us your interpretation of the sketch, pop over to Retro Rubber, and get inspired by the things the DT have made.

Challenge ends August 9th.
