The challenge at CAS Mix Up this time is to colour a die cut!
For this card I used an embossed die and cut from a piece of gold mirror card. I then dropped various shades of alcohol ink onto it, a little blending solution and kind of left it to see what happened.
When dry, I over-stamped it with a small script stamp and thought it might need fixing to stop the colours from coming off. I used some hairspray which made the over-stamping go a little muzzy, but I didn't mind the effect.
I simply cut a piece of hessian to use as a mount and added a Penny Black die cut sentiment cut from kraft card.
That is stunning, I love it!
