A pretty card made for the CASE A Friend Blog Hop using the Mixed Media stamp set and the Bloom Impressions dsp from Stampin' Up!

Mixed Media CASE’d card – CASE A Friend Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the CASE a Friend Blog Hop. CASE means ‘copy and share everything’ or ‘copy and selectively edit’ and I have chosen the second option and a card designed by Karen Ksenzakovic of creativestampingdesigns.com,  I also used a stamp set which will be available from the 7th January 2025 from my online store called Mixed Media.

 

Colours used in this card are:

 

To recreate the mixed media card, you will need:

Pebbled Path card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Melon Mamo card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾”
Pebbled Path card – 3½” by 1⅛” – 3
Bloom Impressions dsp -3⅜” by 1” x 3
Basic White card -5½” by 3¾”
Scrap Basic White card

 

I ran the 5½” by 3¾” panel of Basic White card through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Forever Plaid Embossing Folder. The embossed panel was then adhered to the Melon Mambo layer and then to the Pebbled Path card front.
