From recent rumblings through my stash drawers I knew right off I had a few pieces with scrunched tissue paper adhered and just the thing for this months
CAS Mix Up July challenge - Stamping, Tissue Paper and Your Choice. .. my choice watercolouring and fussy cutting. It is dark blue tissue paper on thick cardboard and looked very uninteresting so what the heck I just swiped my gold Brilliance pad and sprinkled on glittery gold embossing powder and hit it with my heat gun... I love how it turned out. I cut it in two (so I'll be back with another card) and inked the edge in navy. I stamped in Distress Ink my bird image and coloured it with Brushos and fussy cut. I stamped and embossed my sentiment to the card and attached my panel and bird. Thanks for taking a peek
WOW! The gold on the dark blue tissue is gorgeous, Robyn! And so is that watercolor bird! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
ReplyDeleteThe gold embossing on the dark blue tissue is so striking, Robyn. Makes a beautiful background for that gorgeous bird! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
