Less is More - Week 59 - Theme - Masking

Hello Everyone - a quick post today as I'm off down to Portsmouth in a minute to meet my new great nephew Charlie.

This weeks challenge over at Less is More is Masking and my immediate thoughts turned to my JudiKins stamps - African Safari and Square Postage Frame.  I stamped the frame onto an off white pearlescent card and onto a piece of copy paper.  I then cut out the centre of the frame on the copy paper to use as a mask and also punched out a circle for the sun.  I inked up my brayer with Big & Juicy Foliage ink to give the background colour.  When it was dry I then inked up my African Safari stamp with Versafine ink and stamped into the frame.  I then cut out another mask for the whole frame, placed it on the card and then used an ornate swirl (unfortunately as it's a clear stamp and there's no name anywhere I can't remember where I got it from.......).  I inked this up with the Foliage inkpad and stamped over the masked frame.  The finishing touch was the sentiment which is by Hobby Art.

 Thanks for dropping by.

Masking samples




Club night has come around quickly this month as we have had to have it a few days earlier than normal as the hall has been booked for a harvest festival "do". Anne and I are showing the girls the masking technique and so I have made some samples.

The frog trio is a Penny Black stamp "Jump for Joy" and I love it - such a happy stamp!! The bird stamp is from Inkadinkado, the lovely teddy bear is a PSX stamp called "Fuzzy Bear" and the last one is a lady's face by 1st Class Stamps with the flower by ISC.

The other card is a stamped and watercoloured image by Stampin Up which is the homework card we set the girls.
