Do you know how to mask? If so this card will be easy for you to make. If not, here is how you mask in 3 easy steps.
1. Stamp the deer on a post it note making sure the head of the tallest deer is at the top of the sticky note on the sticky part. Then cut this out. This is your mask.
2. Stamp the background of the card, stamp the deer on top of the background, then place the post it note mask on top of the deer.
3. Stamp the trees so that part of each tree is on top of the post it note. Take off the mask and Voila the trees are now behind the deer.
Such a simple but impressive technique.
Come back tomorrow to see a Wednesday Wow card using this wonderful stamp set In the Meadow.
I love this card that my friend Robin featured in her class called Everything Fall. I really copied it just the way she had created it. How can you make anything perfect better? What do I love about this card?
1. The brick wall, love that embossing folder.
2. The pumpkin scene-could be a Halloween card, or a fall card just change up the sentiment.
3. The technique Robin used to get the sky and the grass separated so well.
First she stamped the image 2 times onto post-it notes.
Next on one she cut the ground and around the pumpkins.
Finally she cut the sky and around the pumpkins.
When stamping the ground she covered the sky and pumpkins and sponged a green color. She reversed this to get the sky sponged. A great card for masking.
It may look like a hard card to make but with the framelits and our new fine tipped glue pen it was quite easy.
Did you look at this card and wonder how the background got on the card? At first I did and then I realized it was done with masking.
1. Stamp the flower image on a large post it note then cut it out as close to the edge of the image as possible. This is your mask.
2. Stamp the flower on the front layer of card stock. No, not the flower first you might think to yourself. What is she thinking?
3. Place the mask directly over the stamped flower image so nothing shows.
4. Now, stamp the background image on top of the mask.
5. When you lift the mask off, this is what you will see. I think the result is stunning.
