Thank You So Much Retro Rubber Challenge #201



Howdy friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here and wow did I have fun with this Tic Tac Toe challenge. I went with the first Column of Die Cut, Large Sentiment and Pattern Paper. 

Using a Lawn Fawn Die, I cut out the large sentiment from pearl paper. The background is two different patterns paper. And then I also used dies to cut out the images of the succulant and cacti, which are from an MFT stamp set "Llama Love" that was released in September 2015. 

Please use the prompt above as your kicking off point, and have fun making a project yourself, upload it to Retro Rubber Challenge Blog by March 10, 2023, we would sure love to see it.

Sending Hugs with Retro Rubber Challenge Blog #200


 

Howdy friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with the next installment of the Retro Rubber Challenge #200. Today's entry is featuring these cute little skunk friends from Lawn Fawn. They were released as part of the Winter 2022 release and they were sitting on my desk colored and ready to use. 
The background is the Kat Scrappiness Falling Hearts Stencil in which I used Simon Hurley Lunar Paste with. My strips are done using various Washi Tapes in my stash, and the sentiment is from the Kat Scrappiness Simple Sentiments Stamp/Die bundle that ws released in 2022.

Tickled Pink with Retro Rubber


Howdy friends and fellow crafters, LeeAnn here with Retro Rubber Challenge #199


With this, I used Cream Cardstock as my base, Silver glitter cardstock as my layering panel, and a ombre sheet of cardstock from Recollections that had pink and white. 

I used the Kat Scrappiness Say It With Hearts stamp and die set for my sentiment and the fun little Quokka just had to come and visit. All stamps are still available at Kat Scrappiness, and are at least 2 years old. 

 

Be sure to link your project up over at the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog by February 10. Stamps must be over 1 year old.

Retro Rubber Snowflake Kisses



Howdy friends and fellow crafters... LeeAnn here with my first post with the Retro Rubber Inspiration Challenge team. Today we are starting challenge #rrcb198 and the theme is It's Winter, use winter related stamps and or paper. 



 For my project I had this embossing folder and stamp in my stash from a Love From Lizi kit a few years ago, so figured it was the best to start off with. 

I ran my cardstock in the embossing folder through my Gemini Jr. then used Delicata White Shimmer Ink to add color. 

I stamped the sentiment with Versamark and used White embossing powder and heat set. 

Finishing touch was a few snowflake sprinkes from Kat Scrappiness.

I alternated white and black layers and my project was complete. 

This challenge runs from January 17 until January 27, and look forward to seeing what you make.

 Howdy friends and fellow crafters. Welcome to the first Birthstone Challenge. 


Today I used Sizzix Framelits 665715 Circle Floral Frame Dies and enjoyed making this card. 

I first cut the set out of Gold mirror cardstock, then the leaves section out of Mint Green mirror cardstock, and the flowers out of Garnet (red) and Amethyst (purple) mirrored cardstock. January birthstone is Garnet and February is Amethyst so these I made sure to use in multiple places. I also used Garnet and Amethyst Rhinestones in my project as the accent centers.

Warm Winter Wishes... A Challenge Entry


 Howdy friends and fellow crafters. LeeAnn here with a fun card I made for the November Challenge over at GinaKDesigns... I had so fun with these little guys, and making a fun shaker... I have linked the supplies used down below, now these are affiliate links that should you choose to purchase the available items (some are sold out due to the Black Friday sale this past weekend), but should you use my links... I may get a small percentage at no additional cost to you...
On with how I made my card.... 
I used Alocohol inks to create my background, this was done on poster board cardstock from Dollar Tree, the JOT brand. Once completely dry I used my Gemini Jr and the Snowflake Coverplate Die to cut the background. 
I stamped and colored the adorable penguins from the Playful Penguins stamp set, then cut them out using the coordinating die. The sentiment Warm Winter Wishes came from the Winter Foliage Card Kit, and cut that out with a sentiment strip die. 
I used Night of Navy Cardstock and Onyx Black cardstock as my layering panels on a Heavy Weight White cardstock Base. 
I hope you have enjoyed my card. Have an awesome day!!!
