It’s a new month and for the month of June we are featuring “masks”. There are a multitude of different ways to mask on cards. I’ll be showing a few different techniques over the next few weeks!
YOU ARE REMARKABLE
First up I chose to do defined edge masking. Super simple. Take two long pieces of cardstock and tape them down leaving an opening on your card front approximately 1-1/4″ wide (or any width you decide).
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Granny Apple Green cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- Add a 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Basic Black cardstock on top of the base card.
- On the 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Basic White cardstock, temporarily adhere to long pieces of paper to mask and leave a 1-1/4″ gap. Use Daffodil Delight Ink and Granny Apple Green Ink with Blending Brushes to add spots of color in the open area. Remove the side masks. This will give you nice crisp edges along the masked color!
- Stamp the leaves and flower with Memento Black Ink over the colored ink.
- Stamp the greeting with Memento Black Ink in the lower left corner.
- Add a trio of white/gold Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems to the background.
SUPER simple to do this mask technique! I love these colors, too! OK, check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
