Posy Punch - Technique Masking

It's Friday!  Hope you're having a great one.  Do you have fun plans for the weekend?  Do they include stamping?  

I had a club meeting this morning and have another on Sunday so I will definitely be in my stamp room.  The best part is that I get to hang out with some of my favorite people. :)

I teach a technique or share a product each month which is fun because I get to watch my new stampers as they discover all you can do with stamps, paper, and ink.  They are often quite surprised when they see their finished creations.  

This card uses the hostess set Posy Punch and it is a fun way to teach masking.   I know all you advanced stampers out there use this technique often but most of my stampers are seeing it for the first time.  The real red flower is stamped first in the center of the card stock and then again on a sticky note.  Cut the one on the sticky note out and stick it on top of the one on the card stock.  Use some re-positional Dotto if you feel the need. Then when you stamp the Daffodil Delight flowers it looks like you stamped them behind the real red one.  I remember when I learned this technique...and what an ah-ha moment it was!


Some paper piercing, rhinestones, and the simple Hello popped up with dimensionals and you have a cute clean and simple card that can be used for many occasions.

So...is masking a technique you use often?  Is it one you learned early on or is this the first time you've seen it and did you have that ah-ha moment when you discovered that's how you get this look?  Please leave a comment...
