Hey,
Today I am playing along with a new challenge Perfectly CAS.
The idea of the challenge is to use one-third of your card, alongside the theme.
I love a CAS card and the idea of using just a third of the space on my card appeals to me.
I used this as an opportunity to pull out an older stamp set that I haven't used in a while 'Wherever You Go' by Stampin' Up - sadly no longer for sale.
I started by putting my stamp onto my white cardstock and marking where I wanted the blue panel to go.
The Wendy Vecchi 'Make Art Stay-tion' came into it's own when I was doing this, as I could hold my panel and the masks down firmly (I use post-it's for masking).
I blended x3 distress ink colours from left to right - Tumbled Glass, Broken China and Faded Jeans. The paler Tumbled Glass, kind of got absorbed by the Broken China..
I am so happy with how this came out, the blend is pretty much the ombre I had envisioned - how rare is that!
I stamped the bridge from the set over the blended panel and then added a simple Happy Birthday sentiment at a slight angle.
Then I just had to die-cut it using a stitched rectangle die and affix to my card blank.
Perfectly CAS = me perfectly happy.
More playing along with this challenge.

Love how you've got the bridge emerging from your inked panel. Super masculine CAS card.
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up at Perfectly CAS. :)
A gorgeous blend of blues and I love the perspective you've achieved here from the stamp and the angle of the masked area. Thanks so much for playing along at Perfectly CAS, Anita x
