Hello there, today I am a guess designer over on the CAS Mix Up challenge blog as I was the top pick for October.
This month the January challenge wants you to use partial die-cutting + stamping + your choice on your card.
Here are some tutorials to assist and inspire you:
- Creative Partial Die-cutting by Jennifer McGuire (12:00) 4:15-6:30
- Top Cut Edge by Kristina Werner (6:36) 4:40-6:36
- Partial Die-cutting by Splitcoaststampers (7:23) 0:00-2:40
- Partial Die-cutting Tips by Jennifer McGuire (16:04) 0:00-4:15
For my card I used a cute little hedgehog stamp from Simon Says Stamp which I partially die cut a circle die around him as a highlight. I then added a few alcohol marker coloured oak leaves around the edges.

Come join in the fun and check out the projects that the other artists at CAS Mix Up have created, take the challenge and link your creation to the challenge post. We’d love to have you join us. You have until Saturday, 25th January at 5:00 Melbourne Time or Friday 24th January 10:00 PDT to link up your project.
Thanks for looking and have a great day.
Such a sweet hedgehog and love your partial die cut design surrounded by leaves…a One of a Kind CAS card design, Tristan. Congratulations for being the CAS Mix Up Guest Designer for January. Hugs..Nancy

Making a window for your cute hedgehog is a great way of using the technique, Tristan!
You nestled the sentiment in the leaves nicely.
