Golden Opportunity ATCAS August Guest Designer...




So thrilled to have been invited by Loll to Guest Design at Addicted to CAS for August! What a fabulous code word this fortnight, and with the Commonwealth Games on at the moment, what better time to go for GOLD!

This fortnights card was created using gelatos and watercolour paper for the blue to green ombre background, then stamping Mama Elephant Make a Wish in Versamark Watermark and Gold Zing Embossing powder. The clusters of stars were stamped and used to position the Studio Calico Wood Veneer Stars, which had also been covered in Versamark Watermark and Gold Zing Embossing powder.

Can't wait to see how you will go for GOLD!

Remember to stop by Addicted to CAS for some more FABULOUS Design Team inspiration!


Also playing along with Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes, Seize the Birthday,
and Mama Elephant and Me Watercolour and Birthday Challenge.
