Hello and Happy Saturday! Today's make and share is my take on a CAS card. I love color so I couldn't resist trying a smooshing technique using stamping blocks.
I was inspired by a Gina K. Designs You Tube video where she used water based markers and stamping blocks to create organic backgrounds. I used Arteza Real Brush Markers to ink up color onto a round stamping block, spritzed with water and "stamped" onto 110 lb. card. The image and sentiment are from an older Close to My Heart set that may now be retired, I purcahsed this set from a Flea Market some years ago.
The only bells and whistles used were 3 enamel dots. This is my CAS style; usually I am creating with lots of papers, elements, bells and whistles.
