CAS Mix Up Reminder

Hello
Time for a reminder over at Cas Mix Up, you still have until 24th Feb to join us in this months challenge, which is a stencil challenge hosted by Nancy. She wants us to use heat embossing with our stencils.  If you visit the blog you will see some links to some technique videos to help you along, plus all the inspiration from the design team.


I blended the 2 greens and 2 oranges through the stencil to make the flower and then used versamark and clear embossing powder to emboss the flower heads. You can see the shine on the close up picture below.

I found a panel with the blocks in my spare background folder and fussy cut the upper edge and put the strip of flowers in the middle. The sentiment is white heat embossed.


I hope to see you in the gallery, this is a great technique to try.




Supplies:
cardstock: Adorable scorable card base, smooth white stamping card
Ink: Catherine Pooler minis
Stamps: Uniko
Stencils: Flowers by Concord & 9th, Cubes by Altenew

Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog today, I really appreciate it.

This is lovely. The flowers are a treat in this snow filled day and the 3D look of the blocks frames them beautifully.
