CAS Mix Up March Challenge....

I am so excited and thrilled to have been invited by Loll and Bonnie
to join their wonderful and extremely talented 
and creative design team at CAS Mix Up.....

I love mixing my medias, trying new techniques and trying to keep it CAS.
If you want to see how it's done, pop across and see the wonderful inspiration
and amazing creations from the design team......

My choice is Alcohol Inks, heat embossing and die cutting
Here is my card.....
I stamped the flower image onto heat resistant acetate and heat embossed in gold.
On the reverse I have used several different colours of alcohol inks,
decanted onto a palette and a paintbrush,
working quickly, before the inks dried....

I initially tried 'colouring' with the alcohol inks on the front,
thinking they would stay inside the embossed lines...mine didn't....
I thought it looked better bleeding out of the lines on the reverse.
I die cut a frame and finished off with stamping the sentiment 
and popping it up onto foam for a little dimension.

I thought the sentiment says it all how I am feeling...
There are links to videos for more ideas and inspiration over at CAS Mix Up.
Come and join in the fun.
I am so looking forward to seeing your creations....

What a great day to be joining the team.
It's the second Birthday of this wonderful, fun and creative Challenge...
There are prizes....
Pop across and take a look.....
