CAS Mix up Challenge Reminder

Hello there, I hope you are all well?

We are halfway through this months challenge at CAS Mix Up

 So I am sharing my second card using Deco foil


Once again I used double sided adhesive tape to apply the foil. I folded a wide piece of the tape in half... Long enough to die cut the fern from and then carefully peeled away one side of the backing and laid it onto a watercoloured rectangle. Then I peeled away the top backing and this gave me the sticky base to rub the foil onto.


I decided to trim the top and bottom from the fern just for a little more interest. I also die cut the wavy lines from a PTI cover plate and adhered just part of it to my card base before adding the the watercolour and fern piece.


My card was finished with a stamped and clear embossed sentiment... 

Enjoy your day and thanks so much for your visit.

LOVE the colour of your main panel, Ros. Really shows off that gold foiled fern. So creative to use just part of your die-cut waves in the background. Gorgeous card! xx

The beautifully foiled fern looks wonderful over the watercolour background and love those colours too Ros, and the added die cut piece in the background is perfect to go with it, and a great sentiment too. A gorgeous card! x

This is a stunner, Ros! How exquisite with the foil against the blue watercolor, and your selective use of the die on the card base makes all the difference, too. White on white with a splash of color -- love!
