CAS Mix-Up July 2026 - Eclipse

Last month you saw the resurrection of the CAS Christmas challenge and today is the restart of the CAS Mix-Up challenge and I'm honored to be on the Design Team.  This month's challenge is

There are a number of videos listed on the blog if you want a refresh on what an eclipse card is.  You can also get inspiration from the Design Team cards.  And remember this is a clean and simple challenge.

An image from Penny Black's Garden Trio was stamped in the corner of Bristol cardstock and colored with Zigs.  The medium Frame It die, also from Penny Black, was cut from the middle and layered 5 times with the image as the top layer.  I didn't know where to add a sentiment without ruining the design so I left it off.

AAA Colourful #16

I played around with the colors at AAA Colourful and while I'm not really happy with my card I'm going to post it anyway.  

The board shows purple, yellow, white and black.   I took a chance that yellow leaves would work with my Altenew Delicate Garden stamp and stencil.   I chose Maple Yellow hoping it wouldn't look like dying leaves.  😬  The black is Classy Frames from Penny Black, layered three high, the background insert is embossed with the Tasteful Textile folder from SU! and the sentiment is a BetterPress from Spellbinders.  

That's it from me.  I'm off to make a few other cards since the weather is overcast and a little cool.

Thanks for dropping by.
