CAS Mix Up Reminder - February 2022 - Faux Cloisonné - Frangipani

Hi Crafty Stampers,
My card today is a reminder for the Mixed Media CAS Mix Up Challenge "Faux Cloisonné" which ends on the 24th February.
I used the Spotlight magazine again and you can see the pictures I used below to create my Frangipani Spray.  I did stamp and cut a few extra flowers which were mounted on Foam Tape to give the flowers some extra dimension.  The heat embossed paper was backed with some white card before fussy cutting and the edges of the cut pieces where coloured with a Gold pen from Stampin' Up.  I added the Sentiment and Heat embossed it with Gold E/Powder, splattered some Gold Delicata Ink and attached the Gold Sequins to finish off my card. The inside of my card was decorated too.
Flowers - I used the 3 Glasses
Leaves - Doona Cover
Wonderful to see you here and I love to read your comments.
Hugs,

Jenna's Birthday 2022

Hello Friends,
On the 9th of Feb we celebrated our Grand Daughter Jenna's 12th Birthday.  Her parents gave her an Animal Crossing Nintendo Switch and so that is the theme I have used for my card.  I outlined all the circles with the Gelly Roll Pen, it appears some of the lines have smudged a little which I did not notice until I posted the photo on my blog and the rest are not all that clear, looks much better in real life.

The inside.
Thanks for your visit today, lovely to see you here.

CAS Mix Up Challenge - February 2022 - Faux Cloisonné - Face of a Butterfly

Hi there,
It's time for a new challenge at CAS Mix Up, I am the Host this month and I would like you to do some Faux Cloisonné, using your glossy Magazines, Advertising Material or Designer Paper. 
I used a Spotlight advertising magazine for my Faux Cloisonné as you can see in the photos below.  Once I had stamped and Heat embossed the embossing powder I backed the paper with some white card to give the pieces more stability.  I then Fussy Cut the images and mounted them over some stenciled diamond shapes, soft sponging and word stamping using foam tape.  The Sentiment is also heat embossed , cut with a label die and mounted on foam.  Hope you will join us for this month's Faux Cloisonné challenge.
