CFC55 BE UNIQUE

I made this fun CAS creation using 

THE ALLEY WAY STAMPS

for this week's  CAS-ual Fridays Challenge ...  

CFC55 PUT A BLING ON IT

My bling is rhinestones and dimensional glaze and diamond stickles on my fish.

I used this brand new stamp from The Alley Way Stamps

CASTAWAYS

My sentiment is from the set

JIBBER JABBER

I placed my spellbinders square die (largest in large set not grands) cutting edge up centered under my front panel then placed the sandwich for embossing. That's it. Then I just placed the die on my card front in the grooves and sponged my blue using Tim Holtz Distress Ink Tumbled Glass just around the edges with the Tim Holtz Blending Tool.

For my fish, I stamped 9 fish, colored 8 orange using Copics YR02, YR04, YR07 and 1 black using Copics N4, N7, N10.  Then cut them out, embossed them using CB Tiny Bubbles Embossing Folder.  Then I applied a very thin layer of Diamond Stickles then dimensional glaze and popped them up.

CFC55, TLC380 See Through Congrats

One card that is for two challenges. 

I saw Holly's Try A New Technique Challenge today on Splitcoaststampers and I just had to play. You could choose between two techniques...I chose the See Through Image Technique. You can't really see the dimension on this in the photo. There are three layers of dimensionals, the frame, the cap and the sentiment bg. 

This card is also for this week's 

CAS-ual Fridays Challenge.

I added Diamond Stickles to my tassle for separation and sparkle.
