September 2020 CAS Mix Up

Welcome back to our September CAS Mix Up Challenge “embossing with dies”. As most of you know, I try to optimize our precious dies, so you guessed it, I am your host this month! I love the diversity of these wafer dies and how they can give another beautiful appeal to Clean and Simple Cards. Magical Mac is our special guest this month and our design team has beautiful creations to spark some great inspiration.

For this card I dry embossed the SSS Woodland Rectangular Frame on 140lb watercolour cold press paper. The second card, I added some Versamark and then gold heat embossed. The Penny Black “Shall we dance” flower die was die cut out of the same watercolour paper. The trio was stamped with an IO BG “scratches” stamp and gold heat embossed and the duo was simply gold heat embossed three times. I die cut a second flower die out of gold paper to double up the first, gold embossed a feather and tied gold thread before adhering to the dry embossed panel. For the second card, I sponged Delicata gold ink inside the gold embossed frame before stamping an IO cover a card Script with the same ink. Some Nuvo drops and/or tiny pearls for the flower centres.
