Hello, time for a new challenge at Seize The Birthday. Glenda is hosting, and she's chosen CAS + Dies.
I went CAS/Mixed Media/Dies for this card. Apart from the script background, which is a new-to-me Tim Holtz stamp, all the items are from my stash - my new year's resolution to actually start using what I'm stashing - hah!
The flower die is Penny Black Bashful, coloured with hot encaustic wax on an iron. The snippets, I couldn't even tell you, they've been torn up in my stash for so long. The happy birthday sentiment is from MFT.
Pop on over to the Seize The Birthday blog to see what the rest of the team and our surprise party guests have created, and play along. If you're not a CAS/Dies person, you can still play along with our Anything Goes theme.
See you in the gallery!
Shirley, love you pretty flower and your mixed media card. So pretty. Have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful daisy stem over your torn bits and text stamping!

ReplyDeleteI love the background and that added pieces of torn script. Fantastic.
ReplyDeleteFantastic! I love all the elements you've been able to included in this CAS design!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautifully artsy-fartsy while still being CAS. I may need to research the waxing technique. This is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card!
