Half way through Hilary's challenge at CAS Mix Up where we have to use Gesso and a Stencil!
Lots of lovely examples over on the challenge blog and also some links to video tutorials to give you some inspiration.
The butterfly was coloured, fussy cut and given a liberal helping of glossy accents so it shines bright.
The sentiment is from SU.
Sadly this is our very last challenge at CAS Mix Up, I have loved being on the Design Team with the most talented group of crafters.
Thank you to everyone who has played along over the years, it has been a joy to see all your wonderful creations. x

This is lovely. The corner stenciling is brilliant and your butterfly is so pretty. I love that sentiment so much. I will miss this challenge. It has inspired me to try new things.

Viv, I am going to miss you all so much! You and the CAS Challenges have made me stretch my wings and fly on crafty journeys and directions I'd never have taken on my own!

I love the soft pink sponged over the Gesso - so pretty! Gorgeous butterfly!
What a beautiful butterfly Viv and I love the soft pink over the gessoed stencilling and a perfect last card for the CAS Mix Up Challenge. I have only just seen that it is ending and I am so sad as I have always so enjoyed all the inspiration from you and all the other DT members, and Loll has led it so brilliantly..the end of an era. x
