We have a new challenge at CAS Mix Up
Using heated copper, Brushos, stamping and die cutting
This month's challenge is hosted by the fabulous Mac
We have lots of videos of different techniques to add metal to your cards.
You'll find them at the challenge site.
The Design Team has some fabulous inspiration pieces to share with you
and we are joined this month by our Guest Designer
Pat (Colourful Card Creations).
We are excited to have a new member of our Design Team!
I hope you'll give Susan (Cats Ink.Corporated) a warm welcome.
I was quite lazy and dug into some wonderful heated copper die cuts
that my dear friend Loll had sent me. Thank you again, sweet friend.
Here's a close up of the copper leaf.
Isn't it pretty?
I pulled out a background piece done with Brushos
sprinkled into spray starch and popped it behind a die cut square.
You don't have to have copper to join in this challenge.
There are lots of ways to incorporate metal into our cards.
I can't wait to see how you use it.
CAS Mix Up is open until the 24th.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!

Super card..beautiful copper leaf and that background...Brushos in spray starch?...not heard of that one!xx
Beautiful copper leaf. Love the pretty background too.
I love the colors in your background Bonnie - that little touch of yellow/orange is wonderful! and the copper stem looks lovely against it! xx
I love this, Bonnie. It's been so long since I did that. Love the gorgeous color of your background too. Thanks for the reminder to bring that copper out again!
Gorgeous card, Bonnie. The background is beautiful and I love the copper leaves. xx
Such a fabulous colourful background to go with your beautiful heated copper leaves Bonnie, and a lovely effect with the spray starch and Brushos. The stitched frame shows it off beautifully and the complementary blue inked sentiment is just perfect. x
This is beautiful Bonnie and don't you just love it when you already have the makings for a card all ready and set to go?!! QACAS and just lovely!! :0)
gorgeous Bonnie, I love the simple leaf against your beautiful brusho background.
Love your wonderful Brushos background with the copper leaf Bonnie, beautifully CAS. Thanks for your lovely comments and welcome to the Design Team.
Oh, this is gorgeous. I love the shine of the copper on that pretty background. I can't wait to try this!
That copper leaf just pops out of that lively background of Brushos with the sentiment to match. The specs of orange just add to the symbiosis of the copper. Wow, the perfect balance, beautiful my friend. xx
You’ve highlighted your gifted heated copper leaves beautifully, Bonnie. That Brusho background is gorgeous. Love the colours. x
Oh my, this is a stunning card Bonnie! I am loving that beautiful copper leave Loll sent to you. She is so generous and sweet! Your background is amazing, loving the colors in there, but I'm confused on the starch. How did you use starch??? Let me see if I have it straight, you sprayed starch down on your paper and then sprinkled the brushos???? Very cool look no matter how you got it! lol Mac picked a great challenge! Hugs, Brenda
I love the contrast between the shiny metal look (copper) leaf and the soft and colorful Brusho background, Bonnie! The simple pierced frame is just perfect to show it off.

I forgot about Brushoes with spray starch. Your background is wonderful made that way, Bonnie.
Beautiful Brushos background, Bonnie for your stunning die cut heated leaves. Wonderful CAS design too. TFS my friend. Hugs...
Love it! What a beautiful little background for your shiny feature leaf!
Aren't friends the best when they give you great crafty gifts. That leaf is just stunning in front of he brusho background Bonnie. Love the cut out die.
Bonnie, your background looks like a supernova explosion! I love the explosion of colors. It is such a stunning background for a metalized twig. This is a memory card with an extraordinary person. I love your project.
Hugs,

The coppery leaf looks fantastic against the gorgeous background Bonnie, wonderful card, Cathy x
