We're doing great things with masking this week which is an easy technique that can produce some impressive results. Many stamp sets come with a mask included where appropriate (Stampendous) but it's easy to produce your own too. Just stamp the image onto a piece of card & cut out. Choose which image is to be your focal point & stamp. Now use the mask to protect this image while you stamp around it. The other images will appear behind it now. I've used Sakura pens to colour the flowers & I've let the colours bleed into each other while still wet. The foliage comes from a Magenta stamp & I've overlapped the printing here & the different Sakura colours over each other produce some different results. I've printed the Birthday Textbox onto a piece of card & then punched a label. To finish add the ribbon & tie the label to it, attach to the card blank.
