CAS Mix-Up - June

I started to post this card for CAS Mix-Up yesterday and then saw that I forgot one of the important parts of the challenge - the stamping. 
Fortunately I was able to correct that mistake without too much trouble.
I watched all the videos on layered embossing and the easiest would have been to do multiple layers on a die cut image but I wanted to play around.  I started with some UTEE thinking that would help blend other powders better, especially since those powders were some cheapies I got at a grocery store on clearance.  I actually put on too much UTEE but it was fun sprinkling on the other colors and watch them move with just my heat gun.  The pink is just light purple and the yellowish is really gold glitter.  Once I had the piece done I wasn't sure what to do with it but the MFT peek-a-boo die is great to show off panels like this.  I added the die cut word in purple foil, layered up on other cs. The sentiment from HA worked out beautifully to fulfill the stamping portion.

Thank you to the Mix-Up team for teaching us new techniques.  I had fun with this one and want to try it again.

This looks like so much fun, I'm going to have to try it. Your card is awesome......it reminds me of a beautiful painting hanging on a white wall so that the painting is the definite focal point. Gorgeous!!!

This is so beautiful. Those colors blended so well and look fantastic. I did the same thing with my previous card, used a printed sentiment instead of stamping.

This is AMAZING, Bobby! It's a piece of art on a card. LOVE it! The colours are beautiful. Isn't it great to use some of the old embossing powders ... they all work wonderfully with this technique. Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up! xx
