Shaving Foam CAS

It's CAS time again as a new challenge begins at CAS Colours and Sketches and this week it's the turn of the sketch


Super-CAS this one! I've kept strictly to the sketch. I used some of my favourite card stock, Blackberry Bliss for the mat.

The sentiment is die cut out of a piece of card which I coloured using the shaving foam technique. This is one MESSY technique but I just love the results. I only have three reinkers but I had such fun with this I think I might buy some more. 


The card started because I wanted the negative of this sentiment die for another project, but couldn't bring myself to throw away the die cut. Teamed up on the rich purple card and with a single rhinestone to wish upon my card was quickly put together. 



May be its too CAS for some, but it has interest in the sentiment and is quite something in real life. I am really looking forward to seeing what you will make of this sketch.

  6. It can't be too CAS. It's impossible!! I too adore blackberry bliss, I can't believe we have only 5 months left with it. Really like how you've managed to make a really really CAS card which includes a rhinestone. That takes serious talent! Liz x

  7. I really like the color variations in the sentiment. Using the rhinestone to dot the "i" is a perfect amount of bling!
