Geometric.....

Before I show you today's card I was thrilled and delighted to have won 

 at CASology with this card from yesterday...

I  have been lucky enough to have been selected as the Honourable Mention several times 

but never a win, so it's made my day and I thank the team for all the wonderful inspiration x

Anyway.....Today's card.....

I started by die cutting the geometric die out of foam as I wanted to use it as a stamp.

I hadn't done this before and I was super excited that it worked really well.

I used re-positionable spray on the foam and 

then stamped with versa mark and white embossing powder.

I had a fun time using my Gansai water-colours in rainbow colours.

I cut the flower die and used this as a stencil and scraped through black embossing paste.

The flower was die cut out of more water coloured card and popped on top of the black paste.

Some of the sentiments have been die cut and layered with foam 

or popped straight onto the card or stamped and raised onto foam.

I enjoyed mixing the sentiments and how they where used on the card.

I also enjoyed using a die as a stamp.

Thank you so much for stopping by.

Today's card......
Update....Thrilled to have won at CASology....Thank you x

I started by spraying a few sprays onto card and then die cutting the feather.

I also die cut the feather out of White Linen card.

The small butterflies have been stamped using a kaleidacolor dye ink pad.

I always forget to use them...they really are so pretty.

I assembled the card, inlaying the sprayed die cut feather, 

stamping the sentiment and then hi-lighting with a gold pen.

Stamplorations Shalu's card

This is my take on the card....

I started by painting gold stripes, using starlight paints free-hand 

and then stamping in black a striped stamp using mixed media stamps.

I have used a flower stencil and clear embossing paste and orange distress inks to colour it.

I have popped on several green sequins.

I have finished off with a black and gold strip down the left and heat embossing a sentiment.

I enjoyed CASEing Shalu's card and producing an artsy and fun card.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
