CASology Week#85-CARNIVAL

Hello everyone,
I'm very excited today to share that I was invited to be a guest designer for this week's CASology Challenge#85, where the cue word is CARNIVAL.  Fun , isn't it? :)

Here's my take on it:

The word 'Carnival' reminds me of colours, bold and bright, and ofcourse the whimsical colourful masks with feathers. I wanted to make a card keeping this in mind. :)

The mask and the feathers are handmade. I have inked the feathers using my Tim Holtz distress inks and memento dew drop inks(yes, I'm enjoying playing around with my inks quite a lot these days). Made a mask from a piece of black cardstock and heat embossed the two extended edges using Lindy's mistletoe EP (Silver) for a more dramatic look.

Inked a corner of my white panel and sprayed some water over it.Then assembled the mask with feathers over it after letting it dry . Stuck a small rhinestone in the center of the mask for some bling and finally stamped the sentiment(from Fiskars-butterfly magic set). I kept the sentiment short to balance it with the boldness of the focal image.

Hope you like my interpretation of this week's cue word. Would love to see how you interpret this super-fun word. Please do play along at CASology Week#85 CARNIVAL. :)

Have a great day!
