CAS Mix Up July Tissue Paper

I am playing along again with the July CAS Mix Up Tissue Paper Challenge.

The DT has discovered there are so many fun techniques using Tissue Paper. I smooshed using Distress Oxides onto  Deli Paper.  Let dry between layers and smooshed again...several times until I got the background I liked.

Here is my finished card using my background.

I did not glue my background onto a piece of cardstock.  I just tucked the sides under and added scotch tape.  I liked the added texture.

I die cut a frame using Shimmery White CS and attached the tissue background then popped up with fun foam.

Next I die cut my "happy" twice for extra thickness and stamped the birthday using Archival Black ink and added a few sequins.  Then I attached my card front to Very Vanilla CS.  The Shimmery White CS looks best with vanilla because it is an off white. I love the subtle shimmer.

That was it...so easy and I loved the texture from the tissue paper and layered Distress Oxide Inks.

I did not use a video for my card technique.  Just did my normal smooshing technique and instead of watercolor paper I used deli paper :-)

Be sure and check out the amazing cards, techniques and videos on the CAS Mix Up Challenge.  You will definitely be inspired ! You have until July 24th to play along.  Happy Stamping..Hugs..
