Day 3: Beautiful You - Masking Technique with a BONUS TECHNIQUE

Good Morning everyone! I really hope you have been enjoying the techniques week. Let me know what you have enjoyed so far. Did you try out the techniques? Don't wait....try it out with me. 

Today's technique is the Masking technique, with this technique you can create an overlap of the stamps without the lines running over into each other! 


This card is dedicated to my friend Maria Gill! She's the most supportive and amazing friend ever. She stuck with me for our 5k obstacle run! Here's a sneak peek pic of us. Don't mind the sweaty selfie! 






Instructions: 

1. Ink the stamp ( girl with umbrella from Beautiful You Stampset). Stamp on whisper white. 

2. Use paper snips to fussy cut the stamped image. 


3. Keep the cut out image ready. 


4. On a separate piece of cardstock, stamp the image of the girl. Use the cut out image to cover the image you stamped, and stamp the girl next to the one you already stamped. 


5. Keep stampin image and cover the girl each time you stamp near it. 





6. Take the stamped cardstock. 


7. Use the color pencils to color in the girl. I used basic grey, because I wanted the girls in the background fade, and highlight the girl in the front. 


8. Stamp the girl kicking and dancing, fussy cut it and color it in with markers. 


9. Finish the card with the extra embellishments and punch cut outs. 

NOW FOR THE BONUS TIP!! USE THE FINE TIP GLUE TO COLOR THE GIRL IN!! 
IT LEAVES A GLOSSY TEXTURE FEEL TO IT!! 


Here's the finished card image!



Hope you enjoyed today's technique. Try it out. You don't need anything special really to try this technique out. Just repeat the stamp!

Organized Card Giver Post #2: Prepare to Succeed!

Hey everyone,  If you’re reading this post, it means you’re somewhat serious about the New Year’s resolution to send cards to people you care about. Do me a favor and give yourself a quick pat on the back from me. Starting is half the battle.  Actually, it’s more important to start, than to succeed. People that start something are usually the ones that end up finishing strong. I tend to procrastinate, just like everyone else. But, just like with anything, if I tell myself, just start….just run for 5 mins, just workout for 5 mins, just clean for a minute, I build momentum to keep going forward. Then when the time is up, its not so bad. You can keep going more… That’s exactly what we’re going to do this week. We’re going to start strong. That’s all you need to do for this week. I know the New Year’s doesn’t start until a month from now, but we want to actually hit the ground running as soon as the new year hits. So, preparation is the key here. For this week#1, and...

Organized Card Giver Post #4 Technology Hack For Keeping Addresses And Birthdays Organized

Hey everyone,  Last post I mentioned keeping a google document for birthdays. Were you thinking.....I'm sending handmade cards to avoid technology and how impersonal it feels! So, why is this woman, asking me to use technology for birthdays?!  I ask myself everyday, what the balance is between technology and personal. I like to use personal handmade gifts and cards or spend quality time with family and friends. But, I like to use technology almost like a personal assistant. If you are related to me, you know I would not even know what to buy at the grocery store if it weren't for my amazon Alexa.  I tend to forget things. Do you ?  I will at times have momentary lapse and forget even the names of my colleagues and then I end up with an awkward..." hey you!! " Very similarly...I forget birthdays, not because I don't care, but because I just can only keep so many things in my head. This is where I like to use technology.  One of the reasons ...
