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.

ReplyDeleteWhat a stunner of a card and the technique looks fabulous Susan x.
ReplyDeleteYour frangipani is gorgeous, Sue! It is especially elegant on the black background that seems to make the gold shine more brightly! This has been an awesome challenge with so many great cards in the gallery! Great choice my friend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card using the two magazine pages Sue! This looks so amazing on the black background. Love this technique and so did a lot of our followers. Thanks so much! xx
ReplyDeleteOMG..Gorgeous elegant Faux Cloisonne flowers and leaves image for your slimline CAS card design, Susan. Love how you mounted the images onto black cardstock and added the sequins and sentiment for gold accents. I have absolutely LOVED your Faux Cloisonne Challenge on CAS Mix Up this month. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs..Nancy
ReplyDeleteWow, that's just lovely. I was excited to try this, thank you so much for your inspiration.
ReplyDeleteOooh, those yellow cloisonned flowers simply jump off the page beautifully. Using black for your cardbase was a great idea, as are the splatter and sequin placement. The slimline format is perfect for it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers using the Faux Cloisonné technique. Love the challenge xx
