Happy Tuesday, peeps! So happy to have you pop by today! It's Retro Rubber time, where we give our older stamps some love! AND it's "Anything Goes" this week:
Anything Goes challenges are a challenge for me....I have so many "retro" stamps, it's hard to choose which one to use! I need guidelines, LOL! Anyway, I decided on a couple of CTMH sets from a few years back; one is called Poster Tidings Fall and Winter, the other is called Just Treats, for my Christmas card this week:
To get started, I used the Fusion Card Challenge sketch and photo inspiration for this week:
I stamped the words in Crumb Cake on a Naturals White piece of cardstock and mounted it on some Kaisercraft DSP, then added a vellum panel with a glimmer paper frame. I added a little cup of something warm, a Soft Sky snowflake and some "berries".
And because I have a hot beverage on my card, I am also entering this at Shopping Our Stash, which is looking for "Hot Beverages for Cold Nights"!
So I hope you'll play along with our Anything Goes challenge this week, just remember that your stamps have to be at least a year old, and tell us their age! Can't wait to see what you create...share it with us at the Retro Rubber blog!
More chore time!
Enjoy your day and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteLove this card and was initially drawn to the colors and the sentiment background! Perfect take on the Fusion challenge!
ReplyDeleteLove these neutrals, LeAnne! the vellum and glimmer paper add such a nice contrast of texture!
ReplyDeleteYou know how much I love neutrals, LeAnne! This is so perfect!
ReplyDelete=]
Your textures and layers are wonderful LeAnne, this is lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combination! I love the soft blue die cuts and mug against that bold background!
ReplyDeleteOh LeAnne, there isn't a single thing I don't love about this card!! The colour palette is amazing, that soft baby blue is really nice and the vellum to not hide the pretty text. Cx
ReplyDeleteThe neutrals with a touch of Soft Sky (I miss that colour) is lovely. The vellum frame is a nice idea too.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card!
