Rinea - Happy Father's Day!

Hello everyone!

This is my first post as a Design Team Member with Rinea!!! I am very excited for this opportunity and I hope that I will inspire you in your crafting endeavors. I am also excited about the opportunity to share with all of you the foiled papers Rinea has! The foils will make any project you create elegant and will make your projects shine (haha)! I have so many projects in my head I want to create, so I am excited about this year on the design team!

I am sharing with you today a "Father's Day" card! I am using the Rinea Foiled Paper from the newly released set called Magical Variety Pack . My card is clean and simple, but I think elegant at the same time! The foiled papers are perfect for any masculine card.

The base of my card is an A2 card, 4 1/4x 5 1/2, the foiled paper from the Magical Variety Pack measures 4 x 5 1/4.

I die cut all the elements using the Rinea foiled paper from the Magical Variety Pack. I arranged the elements on my card. I used adhesive to adhere the gold pocket, then I used foam tape to add the tie and the word dad. I heat embossed the sentiment with white embossing powder on black card stock and added foam tape and popped it up on my card.

Here is a closer look at the elements I added to my card.

Retro Rubber Challenge Blog #87 - Sketch

Hello everyone!

I am here with Retro Rubber Challenge blog and we have a new challenge, which is a sketch.  I know I have said this before, I love sketches....our one and only design team member Claire always has the neatest sketches. 

If you have not joined our challenges before, the rules are very simple, just use a stamp older than a year and you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post.  Here is the sketch for you to use.  I cannot wait to see you take on it.

Here is my take on the sketch.  I used a stamp set from Stampin Up called "Mixed drink".  The set was released in June 2016 and I believe it is still available.

My card is an A2 card, I used the Stampin Up (retired) DSP True Gentlemen, I stamped the image from the set colored it with copics and added some wink of stella, to give the beer a shimmery look.  The sentiment is from the Stampin Up stamp set called "Teeny Tiny Wishes" which was released back in 2009.  This is a favorite set of mine!

Are you ready to play along? Be sure to stop over on the Retro Rubber Challenge blog to get more inspiration, the design team has some wonderful creations! Thank you for stopping by, you have until June 1st to join the fun!
