CAS MIX UP (July '22 REMINDER)

  It's time to remind you about this month's CAS Mix Up Challenge.   Linda is our host and it's a Watercolour Challenge, with the prompt  'Things with Wings'. That should give you plenty of scope.  Please be sure to make water-colouring the main element of your card and keep your designs Clean and Simple.


I stamped the bird twice, once on the main panel and on a piece of scrap, which was coloured with Altenew Metallic Watercolours and then the body fussy-cut. I sketched and water-coloured the branch. 
My instict is always to add splatter, but I wanted to keep this one really CAS and simple.
Stamp: Kaisercraft Fly Free; SSS Sketched Flowers
Die: Spellbinders 



You can find more inspiration from our talented  Design Team over on the CAS Mix Up Blog and we hope you'll be inspired to join the challenge.

  2. Beautifully watercolored with metallic paints bird and branch, Jenny. I think splatters would be a really nice touch too. Your hand drawn branch turned out perfect. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy

  5. Beautiful card Jenny. Love your layered bird which adds so much dimension. Adding the shadow always makes the bird pop-up from the background. Great work drawing and painting your branch. xx
