planned for last year in the new year this is one of those so it has a more wintry christmas themed tic tac toe board for you to play with consider it a start on christmas cards for 2026 i played with the vertical row of pines your choice and snow also added a tag ribbon and die cut almost went for black out but sequins and rhinestones didn t fit the overall vibe of the card i have a nice image from 2015 by technique tuesday i do miss the realistic clean style of many of their images i am glad i have a nice selection to play with and this pine bough is one of them the image is stamped in versafine nocturne and then colored with derwent water color pencils that is the best way to add some color to the pine needles in my opinion i have the pleasure to actually see these beautiful birds here at my home in northern minnesota the sentiment is from the same set and is also stamped in versafine nocturne the images are die cut with the coordinating dies kraft cardstock creates a tag by using the paper studio tag punch to get the decorative top edge added a ribbon to the tag from my ribbon scraps the front of the card base is pressure embossed with darice s snowflakes embossing

set mountains at the lake the flying bird silhouettes are also from this set the die cut adirondack chair is taylored expressions and a scrap of distress paper was used to get the chair to face the direction i wanted i actually cut it in reverse and them flattened the rolled edges on the die cut the background texture is a press plate by altenew named burlap all the edges of the image and the sentiment were inked with the sapphire ink this is my first try for color inspiration i used color cube card 692 the birds are from technique tuesday s chickadees 2 0 released in 2017 they are stamped in verafine clair nocturne and head embossed in iridescent embossing powder then colored with prisma color pencils and die cut with coordinating dies the chickadees are mounted on my favorite things

things to work from with this challenge image i choose the celtic and four leaf clover theme i knew this background image was perfect it is a red rubber stamp mounted on wood from about 1990 an excerpt of a story from the books of kells made by judi kins this was one of my favorite companies in the 90 s and 00 s with all of their themed international stamps the image is stamped in memento bamboo leaves on the front of an a2 size card base and on a light green cardstock the resulting green cardstock is die cut to a frame with dies from waffle flower the lucky die cut is from concord 9th lucky die and stamp set the sub sentiment is from the same set and is stamped in memento bamboo leaves as well the four leaf clover is an ancient quickutz die and is used to die cut several colors of coordinating green from my scraps stash all the layers are adhered together i hope you enjoy playing along with the challenge from retro rubber challenge guidelines we require stamps older than one

toe we always enjoy seeing all the wonderful combinations that this type of challenge inspires join us at retro rubber as a side note retro rubber was forced to close in the fall of 2025 due to the discontinuation of a blogger portal so there is an option for pumpkins i may be late to the postage collage fad but now i am totally onboard i knew that the ton of smaller stamps i have collected over the last three decades would come in handy someday the balloons two of the sentiments party hats and sparkles are all from small sets acquired at michael s and joanns this card is the diagonal of purple my choice and square this actually started as a practice piece but morphed into a cute card i have found my new color cards to be very helpful in picking colors when i am stumped this is inspired by color cube 066 the waffle flower postage collage gifts stencil is used to create each of the different colored gifts i used the altenew color familes of lapis lazuli shades of purple bubblegum dreams martian terrain pocketful of sunshine and frosted foilage then out came to small stamps like scrappy cat s birthday wished from 2017 and ms sparkle co happy birthday also from 2017 all these images were stamped in memento grey flannel the postmark and small envelope are from the wf postage collage stamp set released 7 2023 turns out i didn t like the martian terrain gift so after using the wf postage collage die i discarded that piece and arranged the rest on grey cardstock trimmed with a wf piercing die from the a2 set the celebrate today is from altenew blooms of encouragement from 2024 spellbinder s classic scalloped circles was used to die cut one image and xxxx everything is mounted on an a2 size card base thanks so much for stopping by this was fun card to
