I've resolved to play more often in the CAS Mix Up Challenges in 2021. So I'm starting right off in January!
I used splatters, Washi Tape, stamping and enamel dots on my card today.
Splatter is such a tricky thing, depending on what medium you use and the method of application, you really don't know where the splatter will go! So mine worked out pretty well accept for that rogue dot in the sentiment! I used a watery brown watercolor paint on a paint brush that I tapped with my finger over the panel.
There are two new members on the CAS Mix Up design team starting this month so be sure to check out the challenge and all of the DT's inspiration for splattering! They also have some links to technique videos for splattering to help you hone your skills!
You'll find the challenge here.

I wouldn't have considered that splatter to be rogue until you said that. I think your splatters are perfect. Not too many and not too few. Love your placement of those enamel dots and the coffee colour and theme too. Thanks for joining us at CAS Mix Up. I also resolved to take part in the CAS Christmas challenge this year but haven't fulfilled it yet! xx
Wonderful size to your splatters, Julia! It seems that mine are either too small or too big. Love the row coffee cups on that Washi tape and the perfect sentiment! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Mix Up!
It happens to me a lot, Julia. I have now started masking my sentiment before splattering. :) I wouldn't have notice the rogue splatter except you mentioned it. I was impressed with how you got different sizes of splatter. It looks fabulous with your design. What cool washi tape! xx
First of all, I do love the washi tape and the sentiment. The CASness of your card is fabulous! And those perfect splatters... wow! I really need to work on my splatters. No matter what, they're always fun. Good to see you at CAS Mix Up again!
Perfect splats and I love the washi tape too x. Fabulous inspirational card x.
My eye went right to your coffee cups and I did not realize they were Washi Tape until I read your description...Loved the simplicity of your card and the added simple splatters...I looked and could not find the splatter on the Washi Tape..will look again:-) Loved your perfect sentiment and enamel dots too. Hope you can play with us again soon, my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
The rogue dot was in the sentiment, which actually looked fine! Hugs...:-)
Expertly executed splatters!!! I didn't notice the rogue dot , but I think that makes it more artistic! Fabulous design:)
Love your CAS cards - this one is lovely!
