CAS Mix Up April Reminder

Time for our CAS Mix Up Reminder Card Samples from our DT and very talented 

Guest Designer, Hideko (Papercraft Boutique)

Here is my Rubber Band Technique + Stamping + Die Cuts Card.

I found an unused card front layer that I had watercolored with Distress Inks 

onto Strathmore Mixed Media Paper in my stash.

I had used the inking direct to acetate block technique.  I used TH Distress Inks: Barn Door, Peacock Feathers and Broken China and then spritzed with water 

and stamped onto my mixed media paper.  

Then used my aqua painter to help spread the ink around.

Next I masked my piece and added narrow rubber bands to my brayer,

then rolled my brayer over my Versamark pad and heat embossed

with Wow Bright White EB Powder.

Next I die cut the piece using my PB "Antique Frame" die.  

Then die cut 2 MB "Sketch Daisy Dies" using SU Black CS and attached together

with SU Fine Tip Glue Pen for a thicker flower.

Attached flower over heat embossed Rubber Band background with Tombow

liquid glue.  It is a stronger glue and worked great.

To my surprise,  I stamped my SSS "Bouquet of Thanks" sentiment 

with Archival Jet Black ink several times using MISTI 

and it worked over the heat embossed background:-)

Popped up my main image with Fun Foam to SU Thick Whisper White card base and Done!

I really liked the results and was happy to use a background from my stash:-)

I am really liking the Rubber Band Techniques for a different and easy CAS background design.

Thanks so much Julia for choosing this technique. You have until the 24th to play along!

Hugs..
