Anything Goes for Retro Rubber

 Always a fan favorite is an "Anything Goes" challenge.  Come play along and enter your project at Retro Rubber.  


A few quick reminders:  1)  you must use at least one stamp that is older than a year AND let us know how long you have had it.  2)  You may enter up to ten challenges including ours.  3)  Please limit your entries to our challenge to three projects.  

If there is one kind of card that is more difficult to make it is a Sympathy Card, especially for family and close friends.  Often they are a card that you need at a time when your crafting mojo may not be working because of the circumstances.  With that said I do encourage you to have a sympathy card or two on hand so they are ready to send as needed.  Recently I needed three to send to a friend and her daughters following the passing of their dad and grandpa.  I am really glad I had cards in my stash ready to go!


This card is simple, elegant, and a quick make:

  • Trim white cardstock to 4.75 " x 6.25" and pressure emboss with Darice Corner Scroll embossing folder.  Edge the card front with Delicate Silver Shimmer.
  • Stamp sentiment in Delicata Silver Shimmer.  It is from the Sincere Sentiments set released in 2017 by SCDesigns.
  • Heat emboss with Imagine Sparkle Embossing powder.
  • Secure sheer ribbon around card front then using a second piece of ribbon, tie a knot around the first ribbon.  It is much easier to get the correct placement of the knot using this method.
  • Adhere card front to A-7 card base.

Please come join our Anything Goes challenge and see what you come up with to delight the design team.  Thanks so much for stopping by!
