Happy Thursday Friends . . .
Welcome back to my blog ... so glad you stopped by!
Today I've decided to join in the fun over on the CAS Mix Up July Challenge.
This is a 'new to me' blog and I'm so glad I found it ... I'm hoping to play along frequently!
I've gone with the Optical Illusion Eclipse technique for my card. I watched the video offered but instead of using two papers of the same pattern, I simply used one sheet and popped up every other 1/2" strip to create the 'optical illusion'.
Stamps: The Stamp Pad 'Birthday Wishes'
Paper: White cardstock, Brutus Monroe patterned paper
Ink: Versafine Onyx
Dies: The Paper Rose 'Stitched Rectangle Frames' (#16679)
Accessories: Scrapbook.com 3D foam squares 1mm
I would really like to try the other Eclipse Technique option they offer in a video, so hopefully I'll find the time to give that a go over the next few days and I'll be sure to share it with you!
Once again, thanks so much for stopping by!
As always . . .
Oh, wow, this is fantastic! What a gorgeous piece. I love that paper. I so want to have a go at the various eclipse techniques!
