Retro Rubber Challenge No. 235 | When Life Hands You Lemons | Technique Junkies Stamps

 

Hello everyone.  It's been a long time since I have played along with the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog but when I saw their latest challenge - Challenge No. 235 - I knew I had to make a card or two.    

Below is the inspirational graphic for this challenge - to use at least four colors in the graphic and the stamps have to be at least a year old.  The lemon theme is optional but, I have 3 "lemon" stamps, all more than a year old, that are perfect to use on the cards - Make Lemonade Background, Call the Girls, and Lemons - all from Technique Junkies.

As much as I love the Make Lemonade Background stamp, the thought of coloring the whole image was too much for me to think about this week.  So I stamped the image twice on scrapbook paper and die-cut them using a 4" x 5.25" stitched rectangle die.  

Here is the horizontal card I made using Lemons as the sentiment and yellow enamel dots as some accents on the card front.

For the vertical card, I used Call The Girls as my sentiment, added glossy accents to the glass because once dry, it looks like glass, and some yellow enamel dots as accents. 

Now I am off to enter these in the challenge.  Do you have a fav?  If you love any of these stamps, you can pick them up from Technique Junkies.  Use my code at checkout - TJ10Michael - to save 10% on your order.

Enjoy the rest of your day and week.  If you enter a card, let me know!  Until next time...

Hugs from Brasil.
