CAS Mix Up (W) Things With Wings Reminder

Time for our CAS Mix Up Watercolor "Things with Wings" Challenge Reminder

post with wonderful CAS cards by our talented Design Team.

Beautiful and creative cards in our followers gallery too:-)

Thank you Linda for hosting this fun challenge:-)

I was inspired by my CAS Mix Up Teamie Bonnie's launch beauty!

Here is my Bird Hello card that I LOVE!!  Hope you do too:-)

Here is a photo of all the shine from the Gansai Tambi metallic Gem Watercolors:-)

It is like having 2 different watercolored cards:-)

I began by using Altenew "Bold Floral Drape" 3D EB Folder

to dry emboss the flowers on SU Basic White 100# CS.

I then trimmed the EB flowers and began using the retired SU 

Bird Builder Punch.  I punched out the branch, bird and wings 4 times and

stacked using Connect Glue.

Then the fun...using #2 paint brush to watercolor with the Gem Colors: 

Yellow Gold for center of flowers and top of bird head.

Green for branch,  Blue for breast and mixed Red, Yellow and Blue to

create a brown tone for the rest of the bird and wings.

Added eye with black marker.

Loved how my bird turned out.  A bit time consuming,  but well worth it!

Attached branch with Connect Glue. Then popped up bird with SU mini 

dimensionals and set aside.  Added SU Basic Black narrow frame.

Added bird and attached to SU Basic White 100# Card Base.

Added stamped Altenew "Label Love" Hello sentiment and glued onto image

and Done!  I was so pleased with my Thing with Wings card:-)

Taking the photos was the hardest part,  but I just had to share the shine:-)

You still have until the 24th to play along.

Love and Hugs..
