CAS Mix Up Challenge February 2022 - Thank You

Hi everyone,

The sample cards of the CAS Mix Up Challenge Designers and Guest Designer inspired me to try this interesting technique this month.


First, I cut out several pages from a fashion magazine.


Then I chose this page for today's card.


And here's my card using patterns from the magazine page:


[How I made the card]

1. Gold heat-embossed the flower and the leaves on the magazine page and die-cut them.

2. Die-cut the oval panel.

3. Glimmer foiled the sentiment on the black cardstock and die-cut the sentiment.

4. Glued the flower, the leaves, and the sentiment onto the oval panel, and added gold sequins.

5. Adhered the entire panel to the card base.


I used the dress of the girl on the left in the magazine photo for the flower and the grass for the leaves. The card may not have turned out to look like Cloisonne but I really enjoyed making the card. 😊 And now I see the old paper magazines I have as interesting and unique design paper! I can't wait to use the rest of the pages I cut out for making other cards.

Thank you for visiting me today!

  5. Hideko, you had really wonderful magazines to choose these pages from! The results are fabulous! Your favorite Altenew set has done its magic again - perfect fit for that wonderful oval.
    I hope to get these results from foiling on colored cardstock one day, 先生

    [I hope that the source I used didn't fool me into using a naughty word! LOL]
