Guest Designer at CAS MIX Up!

Hi All

I am very excited to be the Guest Designer at CAS Mix Up Challenge and to be with such an amazing Desigen Team Members.


I wasn't sure what this meant but the lovely Loll explained it to me.
It is basically you use a stencil to add colour to your card (sponging, watercolour, pencil colouring, etc. ... whatever you want to use).  Then you clean your stencil and place it back over the image.  Take a thin black marker and trace around the stencil.  It creates an outline.

So I gave it a go and here is what I came up with after so many tries-not my best card but I tried!


This is a Funky Fossil stencil.

A real challenge for me but great for a masculine card!

Thank you Loll for inviting me to join your amazing team and to see what they have made to inspire you, take a look here and then play along!

Enjoy x
