Hi there Crafty Friends. Did you see that the CAS Mix Up Challenge has started up again after a 4 year break. Our theme this month is 'ECLIPSE Cards' (Mixed Media, nclude stamping & CAS).
This time I used a very old stamp from Hero Arts (Dogwood Flower) and number dies from Spellbinders to create my eclipse. The sentiment is from Penny Black Stamps.
I stamped the flowers using karin Markers direct to stamp and blended. Then I die cut the '70' a couple of times, once from the stamped card and from scrap, to create dimension.
There are links to some videos on the CAS Mix Up blog, which explain how to do this technique.
Our Design Team have
some wonderful inspiration for you.
I hope you'll check us out and join in at




This is beautiful Jenny using the pretty Dogwood stamp with the eclipsed numbers which stand out really well, and the colouring using the direct to stamp technique using your markers has worked brilliantly..a wonderful card. x
