Hi everyone. Time for another fun challenge at Addicted to CAS. This challenge is being hosted by me and I have chosen this code word for inspiration ...
Lots of ways to interpret this code word. Above I created a watercolored background by squirting yellow, light orange and dark orange re-inkers onto my craft sheet, misting with water and then dragging a piece of watercolored paper through the ink (smooshing technique). Once dry, I placed my sunburst stencil on top and added a coating of granular gel. I love the pieces of plastic in this translucent gel medium ... it really makes the sun sparkle.
Prize: 7 digital images
I hope I have inspired you to join in the fun at ATCAS. As always, our challenge is open for two weeks so there's lots of time to make a card to enter. Just remember to keep your entries CAS, follow the code word ... and HAVE FUN!
