Hello Crafty Friends,

Today I want to share with you a card I created for my last card class.

I have some newbies in my classes, so I thought I would take it back to basics and teach them about masking and the effect it has.

We did this masking technique with the trees on the background.


If you have never done masking before, it is really quite easy.  Take the image you want to mask and stamp it on a post it note.  Cut this image out, cutting as close as you can to the image.  Stamp your first image on your project and then place the post it note image over the top and then stamp the other image over it.   As you can see in the picture, you get the effect of two rows of trees and not just one.

I hope you will try it.

Supplies Used:
Stamp: Deer Friends
Paper: Oatmeal Cookie Cardstock, Beach Breeze Cardstock, Lemon Grass Cardstock, Whip Cream Cardstock
Ink: Dark Roast
Accessories: Lemon Grass Twine
Colored with Color Burst Pencils
