Whoo Hoo

I am delighted to be a guest designer for this month's CASMIXUP. The challenge for August ishttps://casmixup.blogspot.com/2022/08/august-cas-mix-up-challenge.html



This is the card I made. I used the Simon Says Leaves and Berries background and embossed it with gold embossing powder. Then using Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink, I sponged over the image.
Then I wiped over it with a dry paper towel to bring out the embossing and cut it into a circle. I used a Poppystamps die called Hampstead Stem die cut in gold cardstock.  The sentiment is stamped and embossed in the same gold embossing powder. 





I used emboss resist with sponging and stamped the sentiment and also embossed. I hope you join us and see what the team has to inspire you.



Be kind to one another.

Gorgeous Gold heat embossed leaves with the sponged Rustic Wilderness ink, Brenda. It is like magic when you wiped off the ink with your paper towel to give the gold leaves shine again. Don't you just Love that Heat Embossed Technique? I know I sure do:-) Beautiful gold die cut leaves embellishment and gold heat embossed sweet sentiment too. TFS and so pleased you are our Guest Designer this month, my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
