It’s our last Creatively Simple masking challenge for the month. I’m doing the most traditional form…using masks on a stamped image. Stampin’ Up! has provided a package of masks to go with the Thankful Garden Bundle…makes it SO easy to color these beautiful flowers!

THANKFUL GARDEN
The color of my stamped hydrangeas almost duplicates the color of the ones that are right outside my studio window! SO pretty and a nice bright pink! I’ll need to get a photo when they are blooming again. I noticed one of the bushes does have buds on it, so not long now!

- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Strawberry Slush cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- The 4 x 5-1/4 piece of Basic White cardstock was stamped with the hydrangeas in Memento Black Ink, then colored with Pretty in Pink (stamped off once for the base color, full for the second mask) and Strawberry Slush Ink for the detail mask. It was cut with the Everyday Arches Die and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two leaf clusters were cut from Garden Green cardstock and sponged with Garden Green Ink, then tucked under the arch on the left side.
- The greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on Strawberry Slush cardstock and cut with the smallest Everyday Arches Die. It was added to the front over the leaves.
- A trio of Strawberry Slush & Pretty in Pink Gems were added to the background.

Very fun and SO simple to color using the masks! Check out Debbie’s new Creatively Simple card over on Create with Stamping Friends!
