CAS Mix Up has been taking a break for a while but we are back again with a new fun challenge, which this time is to use pastes or gels.
Some time ago I discovered how to make embossing paste after being faced with a solid lump of the stuff when I wanted to make a card. Being a creature of impulse I wanted to do it straight away, so after tossing the dried up pot of the stuff, I made my own. Here is a video I made, demonstrating how I made it.
For this card I used two stencils, the Paisley type one, and a circle one over the top. I spread the embossing paste through it using a palette knife and sprinkled it with Gold Glamour Dust when still wet.
The twiggy die cut is stacked a few times to add dimension, the heat embossed sentiment is by Personal Impressions.
LOVE your double stenciling to create this gorgeous circle of design. The gold glammer dust takes this card to elegant and I love it combined with your twig die-cuts. It has an oriental feel to the design. Beautiful! You may have noticed that your video also was used for on the challenge blog. Thanks for that! xx
