Winter Fun for Retro Rubber Challenge Blog #246

 Welcome back to Retro Rubber Challenge Blog as we start 2025 with a seasonally appropriate challenge.

 Where I now live in North Central Minnesota it actually looks something like this outside today!  High was a lovely 4F on this bright and sunny morning.  We recently received 6 inches of new snow, some is still in the trees.  A perfect excuse to stay inside and do a little crafting?

For my card I decided to use a whimsical winter stamp set by Hunky Dory Crafts in the UK called Winter Warmers and release in 2017 as  gift with Creative Stamping. 

 

• The penguin's sweater was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and masked, with the penguin stamped over the mask.  The presents and sentiment are aslo stamped in Memento black.
• All the images are colored with crafters chalk, I wanted a softer look.  
• All the images were fussy cut. 
  
• Ancient paper from my stash was used to create the card base.  Paper Pizaz Snowflakes from 1997 and Darcies Country Folk Plaid from 1999.  The deckle edge was trimmed using my Creative Memories trimmer.  The layers were adhered together.
• The images are mounted with various thicknesses of foam adhesive.
• The star and sentiment was begging for a little bling, so I used Stickles in Diamond to make a little sparkly shine.  Actually it is best to add this at the very last so the entire card can be set aside to dry.  

In a way a fairly simple card to send to a special little human that is having a birthday soon!

Retro Rubber Challenge 245 to finish 2024

 Here we are at the end of another challenge blogging year at Retro Rubber!  Our last challenge is a creative Tic Tac Toe, that can be used in many ways.

 This is very conducive to create a lovely Christmas card.  Some of the greenery is the same as the last challenge, but used in a very different way!  Here in Northern Minnesota  porch pots are very popular.  As of last week they all became frozen so the greens will stay all winter.  My card is a representation of a porch pots and looks similar to the one sitting on my porch!

Heartfelt Creations last day was November 30, 2024.  I've been a Platinum Member since 2013, and purchased products regularly.  This is the Winter Wreath Accents and Die from 2021.  (Yes, featured in the last challenge too!)  I choose the Ribbon or Twine/Greens/Dies or Punches diagonal to create my card.

• The greens from HC Winter Wreath Accents are stamped in Memento Northern Pine and Cottage Ivy on various colors of green card stock.  Memento Bamboo Leaves is blended onto the images as well.  All are die cut with matching die.
• Sizzix Small Tattered Florals die was used to create the brown branch fro cardstock.
• Sizzix Garden Greens dies are used for addition sprigs in the arrangement.  One set is blended with Memento Cottage Ivy.  
• The pot is a punch I've own for easily 20 years!  Green shimmer paper was punched for the pot and the edges lightly inked with Memento Coffee ink.
  
• The oval is die cut from the center of Kraft cardstock with the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Ovals.
• The background paper is by Hot of the Press.
• The layers are adhered together and the "porch pot" greens are assembled and adhered with various thickness of regular and foam adhesive.
• The sentiment from Lawn Fawn's Winter Wavy Sayings  (2019) is stamped in Memento Northern Pine on green card stock and die cut with the matching die. 
  
• The final touches includes Christmas Red Stickles for red berries and a bow tied from shiny red ribbon.  

I hope that you enjoy playing along with us a Retro Rubber and enter your own Tic Tac Toe project!  

Sketchy Time at Retro Rubber

 This is a a bit more complicated, but beautiful when complete!  Come join us at Retro Rubber and play along!

This card will go to a dear family member.  It was a labor of love and really fun to put together.

Heartfelt Creations came out with Seasonal Wreath set in 2021.  The underlying wreath is paper cut with dies.  The different season have coordinating stamps and dies.  The finishedI really like how the layers work together!

• The wreath is die cut from green cardstock, the bow from red glitter paper and gold metallic.
• The images were stamped in Versa Fine Clair Nocturne, Acorn, Verdant, and Green Oasis.  Then colored with Prisma Color pencils.  Then die cut with the matching dies.
• Gold metallic paper is die cut with Pink and Main Stitched Arches die.
• The green layer is just cardstock with rounded corners.
• Lawn Fawn Cuts is the Simple Wavy Banner.
•  Recollections Christmas Noel is stamped in Versa Fine Clair Glamorous and die cut.
• The card base looked a little plain so decided to use the same images on the background to tie the card together.

 I hope you enjoy this challenge!  Come and play along at Retro Rubber.

Time to start the New Year with Retro Rubber Challenge

The Design Team put our heads together and came up with some really fun challenges for this year, our Tenth year!  Do come and play along with us at Retro Rubber Challenge Blog.

 

 Across most of North America we are experiencing extreme cold and winter storms.  This is the perfect time to stay inside and play with your retro stamps.  Mine is a wood-mounted Snowflake image by Peddler's Pack from 1998.  

 

• This card was the second try, using the stamp to convey the feel of the challenge.  Since the snowflakes are actually in relief with the surrounding being the stamp it was best to ink the stamp up in Memento Luxe' Grey Flannel and Versa Color Baby Blue.  
• Heat embossing with Imagine Crafts Iridescent embossing powder added to the glitz.  
• Some of the areas were inked directly with Versa Color Baby Blue.  
• The image was trimmed to size and adhered to the front of an A2 sized white card that was also inked in Versa Color Baby Blue.  
• It is the time of year to send thank you cards, so the finishing touch is a die cut from Poppy Stamps made in 2017.  
• Three die cuts were adhered together then inked with Delicata Sapphire Blue and heat embossed with Imagine Crafts Iridescent embossing powder.

Share with us your "winter fun" make!  With the cold weather it is the perfect time to stay inside and play with ink and paper!  You can join us here.

Versa Clair Fine creates a beautifully Stamped Sunflower

Versa Clair Fine is now my favorite pigment ink!  So versatile and allowed me to create a beautifully colored card in just a few steps.  This is one of the few cards that my husband has asked me to specifically make for a friend, it was easy to do with just a few inks, stamps, and dies!

Skill:  Intermediate

Time:  2 hours

 Directions:

Step 1:

 

Stamp sunflower images on yellow cardstock with Versa Fine Clair Cheerful and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.  Stamp leaf images on light green paper in Versa Fine Clair Green Oasis and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.  Die cut with matching dies.

Step 2:

Place flowers and leaves face down in matching shaping mold and mist lightly with water.  As the images are heat embossed, they will stay sharp and crisp.  Close mold and pressure emboss.

 

Step 3:

Remove flowers and leaves from mold and set aside to dry.  Once dry assemble flowers with On Point Glue, adding black glitter to centers.  (Not shown)  Set aside to dry.

Step 4:

Ink the edges of an A7 size card with and ink dauber and Versa Fine Clair Green Oasis.  Set aside to dry, as the ink is very juicy.

Step 5:

Sunflowers are a rustic flower, so corrugated cardstock seemed to be a good choice for a background.  Versa Fine Clair in Cheerful and Summertime are inked randomly on the corrugated cardstock with ink daubers.

Step 6:

 Ink the sentiment with Versa Fine Clair in Green Oasis and heat emboss with clear embossing powder.  Die cut with die from the Eyelet Frame Gateway set.  I trimmed off a portion of the sentiment, then edged the sentiment with Versa Fine Clair in Summertime.

Step 7:

Die cut a Border from the Regal Boarder set using light orange paper.  Gently shade the edges with Versa Fine Clair Summertime and an ink dauber.   

 

Step 8:

Adhere corrugated cardstock to base card with Tear It Tape!  Adhere border with On Point Glue  Adhere flowers with Tear It Tape!

Thanks for stopping by!  The post from Oct. 11 you can see another way that I used these beautiful sunflowers, and the card looks totally different!

Anything Goes at Retro Rubber

 Everyone's favorite, Anything Goes for the next two weeks at Retro rubber.

I had a need for a quick birthday card for my mother-in-law.  Since we still have sunflowers blooming, I went with that theme.  I also had a few spares from another card that will publish on Oct. 21 for Imagine Crafts Design Team.  If you are interested in the tutorial to make the flowers you can check back later!

• Heartfelt Creations Sunflowers stamps, dies, and shaping mold are used to create the flowers.  VersaFine Clair in Cheerful is used for the flowers and Green Oasis for the leaves, both on complementary colored cardstock.  A quick heat emboss with clear embossing powder allows a mist of water in the shaping process.
• The background is stamped with the leaves in VersaFine Green Oasis, then pressure embossed with xxxx die.
• The Sentiment is from Heartfelt Creations and is stamped in VersaFine Cheerful on white cardstock and heat embossed before being die cut with a Spellbinders Standard Circle Large.  The edges are inked slightly with an ink dauber in VersaFine Clair Cheerful as is the card base.  
• After the flowers are dry, they are layered together, and wet glue is added to the center along with some black glitter.  
• The card is assembled using dimensional foam tape and glue dots to hold the flowers and leaves in place.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Tic Tac Toe Challenge for Retro Rubber

Tic Tac Toe boards are so much fun for creating cards, there is so much variety in the interpretations of the choices!  This is the board for Retro Rubber's Challenge:

I went with the diagonal of Stars, Pattern Paper, and Bling.  Technically I could also claim Stars, Die Cut, and Blue as well!

• The Patterned Paper is ancient, maybe over 20 years old, found in my 8.5" x 11" folders, it was made by Paper Patch.  It is trimmed to fit the front of an A7 size card 4.75" x 6.75".
• I have a favorite Spellbinders Cascading Stars die that was perfect, die cut in both white card stock and red glitter cardstock.  The red glitter covers the bling corner of the board!  It is a bit hard to see in the photo.
  
• A Double Fish Tail banner was trimmed from 1.5" cardstock.
• The Superstar is part of a stamp that says Superstar kid.  I masked the kid portion and stamped the image in Versa Clair Fine Glamorous.  It is made by Autumn Leaves Golden Moments by Maryanne Wise from 2006.
  
• Happy Birthday is from 2013 Hero Arts "It's Your Day", also stamped in Versa Clair Fine Glamorous.  Then the image is heat embossed with clear embossing powder.
• The edges of the banner are inked with a blusher in Versa Clair Fine Blue Bell.
  
• The die cuts are adhered with liquid Zig glue, and the banner with dimension foam adhesive.

Once I made my decision to use stars and bling the card came together quickly.   Please join us at Retro Rubber and play along with this quick and easy sketch!

Love, Love, Love for Retro Rubber

 It is time to make Valentines or a card that celebrates love!  Come join us at Retro Rubber Challenge blog and get inspired!

I've had this stamp from Pink Fresh since 2019 and have only inked it once.  I thought it gave the vibe of the sentiment I choose to embellish the card.

• Card base is Kraft Cardstock in A-2 size.  The remainder of the sheet was used to stamp the focal image.
• The image is stamped in Memento Luxe Wedding Dress and heat embossed in Creations Unlimited Silver Satin Pearl.  A subtle color over the Kraft cardstock, but really shimmery in person.  The image is trimmed to 3.75" x 5"
• A bit of red glitter cardstock is trimmed to 4" x 5.25".  From the center  of the glitter panel The Stamps of Life Love You Circle die is die cut to created the x o circle.  A Spellbinders Small circle was used to remove the center of the circle.
• Scrapbook.com's XOXO sentiment set from January 2019 is used to stamp the sentiment in Memento Luxe Wedding Dress and heat embossed in Creations Unlimited Silver Satin Pearl.  Paper Studio Fish Tail punch is used to finish the banner.
• Since the red glitter cardstock showed a bit of white when trimmed with a paper trimmer, so the edges were inked in StazOn Jet Black.
• The layers are adhered together with the sentiment added with dimensional foam adhesive.

I do hope you will stop by the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog and join our challenge.  We would enjoy seeing your creations in our gallery!  Thanks for stopping by!

Christmas Inspiration for Retro Rubber

 Here we are the last challenge of the year at Retro Rubber!  Add another card to your Christmas stack to be shared with others!  Wonderful Christmas colors with a rustic theme.  Enjoy and hope to see you in our gallery!

I ordered some fun new dies from Crafter's companion and they have been a blast to decorate.

• I started by centering the Sprig of Holly Die on the front of a 6.25" x 9" card base and die cut and pressure embossed the design.
• With an ink dauber I inked Versa Color in Lime through the die.
• Inakadinkado's Christmas greetings snowflake swirl from 2011 was used to stamp sparkly swirls in Delicata Golden Glitz on the rest of the front of the card.  The die was left in place.
• A section of light green cardstock 6.25" x 2.75" was also stamped with Inakadinkado's swirls used to stamp sparkly swirls in Delicata Golden Glitz. 
• The red ribbon and berries are drawn in with Nuvo Crystal Drops in Autumn Red.
• The sentiment from Unity 2014 is stamped and embossed with Delicata Golden Glitz and Gold embossing powder on a red scrap.  The corners are rounded and the edges are heat embossed to match the sentiment.
• the sentiment is backed with matching light green cardstock and then adhered to the front of the card.  The rest of the card is assembled, including a white cardstock liner.

Sketch Time for Retro Rubber Christmas Card

 We have a great sketch at Retro Rubber for the challenge for the next two weeks!  Super easy to put together a CAS Christmas card!

This year I have been creating Christmas cards throughout the year . . . and often from scraps from completed layouts!  The patterned paper I used is My Mind's Eye I Believe from 2010!  So the paper is older than my stamp set, Recollections Christmas words and die set purchased last December, 2020.

• I simply followed the sketch for a A2 sized card.  The base is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2", the red print backing is 4 1/8" x 5 3/8".
• Three strips of coordinating patterned paper are trimmed to 4" x 1 1/4" and adhered.
• The sentiment is stamped in Memento Luxe Rhubarb Stalk and heat embossed with iridescent embossing powder.  (The candy cane strip also has some glitter that is hard to see in the photo.)
• The sentiment is die cut with the matching die.  To be honest, next time I will use my Scan N Cut as the dies and stamps do not seem to match up well.  the sentiment is adhered with dimensional foam adhesive.  
  
• Two wood stag deer are adhered for embellishment.  They are from a set of Christmas embellishments made by Docrafts that I have had in my stash for about 4 years!

Easy Peasy and ready to post for Christmas!  We do have a few guidelines for Retro Rubber:

• We require stamps older than one year.  If we feel you are using newer stamps, you may be disqualified from the challenge without notification.

Learn to make a Textured Metallic Wedding Card for Imagine

In today's card making tutorial I will show you how to make a Textured Metallic Wedding Card using VersaMark, Delicata, and Embossing Powders.  This is a stunning card to make for a bride and groom as they celebrate their wedding day.  I am sure my nephew and his bride will enjoy their card!

 

Skill:  Intermediate

Time:  2 hours

 

Directions:

Step 1

This technique involves inking the FLAT side of an embossing folder for either 2-D or 3-D folder.  This folder is 3-D with both indentations and slight protrusions.  Ink the folder well using a brayer and VersaMark ink.  Place white cardstock in folder and pressure emboss.

Step 2

Sprinkle liberally with Black Embossing powder and heat the card from below with a heat embossing gun.  Allow cardstock to cool.

 

Step 3

Lightly rub Delicata Golden Glitz over the surface of the cardstock.  The high areas will pick up the ink.  This creates a great three dimension look of black, white, and gold.  Trim the finished panel to 4” x 5 ½”.  

 

Step 4

Stamp "Mr." & "Mrs." in Delicata Golden Glitz and heat emboss with Iridescent Embossing Powder.  Fussy cut the banners with scissors. 

 

 

Step 5

Die cut four "Congratulations" die cuts from white cardstock with Spellbinders Phrase Set One.  Use an ink dauber to color the top die cut then heat emboss with Iridescent Embossing Powder.  Use very small dots of OnPoint glue around the letters of the die cut to glue the layers together.  

 

 

Step 6

Trim a strip of black cardstock to 7/8" x 4".  Stamp with a background stars stamp in Delicata Silvery Shimmer and heat emboss with Silver Embossing Powder.  Once cool add shine with Sheer Shimmer Stix in Sparkle.

 

Step 7

Trim cardstock to 4 1/2" x 11" and fold in half for a top fold card.  Using and ink dauber add Delicata Golden Glitz ink around the outer 1/4" of the card base.

 

Step 8

Stamp the sentiment inside the card with Delicata Black Shimmer and heat emboss with Iridescent Embossing Powder.

 

 Step 9

Adhere card layers together with TearIt Tape, and adhere die cut with OnPoint Glue.  The small little dot (tittle) of the letter "i" is replaced with a small gold adhesive rhinestone.  The original tittle was too small to layer together.
