Hi there. I'm so glad you stopped by!
We're back at CAS Mix Up!
We've missed you!
Loll is our host this month and this is what she chose...
Our Design Team is rested and ready to inspire you.
And our Guest Designers,
Jules (Crafted by Jules) and Darnell (djkardkreations)
have added some wonderful inspiration too!
To make this card, I smooshed some Distress Oxide ink on my craft mat and
mixed in some Crackle paste. Once the color was mixed in well,
I spread it over a stencil and set it aside to dry.
There was a messy section which led me to do some partial die cutting to
get that out of the way.
I mounted it on foam over a piece of dry embossing.
My mixed media are stencil, crackle paste, dry embossing and stamping.
Now it's your turn. I hope you'll get out your pastes or gels and your favorite
stencil and have a play. Then join us at CAS Mix Up.

Those leaves are fantastic, Bonnie. I love crackle and even think I bought some crackle paste but never thought to bring paste with me. I'm not sure what stencils I have with me either but maybe I can work something out. I'm so glad CAS Mix-Up is back. I hope CAS Christmas is too.
ReplyDeleteNot got any crackle paste... so now am going to have to get some!
ReplyDeleteThese leaves look simply amazing Bonnie - great card! x
I think my crackle paste is all dried up, Bonnie - I never did achieve such a wonderful crackle as you have today! It is FABulous as veins in your leaves!
ReplyDeleteSo happy CAS Mix Up is back!

Love all the texture in this and I'm intrigued with your partial die cutting. I really must make a trip down there and take one of your classes! This one looks fabulous, Bonnie and I'd never think to smooch ink into crackle paste.

ReplyDeleteOh, wonderful crackle on your pretty stem Bonnie! love how you have it coming in from the top of your card! xx
ReplyDeleteAwesome card Bonnie love the crackled leaves. I have some crackle paste and never used it, I will have to have a play.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant design, Bonnie. Using the crack paste on the template that you then precisely cut gives such an amazing impression. I love that the twig part was placed higher above the embossed background. A bright and very inspiring card!
