CAS Mix Up has a new challenge running until the last day of the month and the task is 'BLACKOUT EMBOSSING'
The 3d embossing folder is Spellbinders Beautiful Blooms.
I cut out one of the blooms from the embossing folder and used this for my blackout.
The flower and leaves were coloured with watercolour pencils.
I popped the white piece up on some 3d foam tape so the blackout piece is slightly lower.
I am a rubbish photographer as I seem to have somehow not shown the back matted layer all the way round - trust me it's there!
I hope you will visit the CAS Mix Up blog and have a look at some of the gorgeous makes from the rest of the DT - they're definitely worth a look!
And then maybe you'll have a go and link up to us - we really like to visit and see what you have created! x

This is beautiful Viv!! Love the gorgeous flower and leaves surround by the black. Very dramatic with the contrast. Lovely embossed design for your background. xx
A beautiful and very striking card Viv.

I have yet to try this technique but you've done a grand job of using it combined with a CAS style of card.
Great CAS card, love the beautiful embossed flower and background.

This is a beautiful floral EF Viv and so pretty in pink and green with the black ink, and a great idea to cut the piece from the white embossed EF and placed back into the angled square aperture so it seamlessly matches up.. a wonderful card. x
This is beautiful Viv. Great take on the blackout technique too. I love how you've taken part of the design and made a feature of it x
Great CAS design, I love that the whole card is debossed with the blackout portion framed in centre!
