Masking Technique: Easy Cardmaking Technique

Beginning Stamping· Easy Cards· Gallery

6 Dec

Here is a Masking Technique: Easy Cardmaking Technique to create any colored background that you want!  At this time of the year we all need to Just Breathe!  With the hustle and bustle of the Christmas Season we all need to enjoy it and I tell myself all of the time to breathe.  

You may not hear from me much

This holiday season we will be focusing on my husband’s upcoming surgery.  He has to have a cervical fusion between the C2-C6 vertebrae and will be wearing a cervical collar for at least a month.  And guess who is his nurse?!!!

While I can schedule blog posts and YouTube videos I am sure you will understand if I don’t have my regular three posts a week for y’all. (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday)

Here is a Masking Technique: Easy Cardmaking Technique to create any colored background that you want! Come make a handmade card with me! Lots of other card making ideas on the site.

Colorful Seasons is a great stamp set to last you all year long!  There are framelits that you can purchase that match called Seasonal Layers Thinlits Dies. I have made many cards using both of these!

Enjoy Masking Technique: Easy Cardmaking Technique Video

Use large post it notes and your grid paper to line up the post it notes.  Sponges or the sponge roller allow adding ink to the Whisper White layer easy.
