I was totally delighted by this idea from fellow demonstrator Lou Kitzelman from Australia!
Create a wonderful gift set - perfect for holiday gifting! I'm sure you have friends who would love to receive this wonderful home made gift!
The card set is created with a clever masking technique. I used 3 pastel colors and the images and greetings from the stamp set Hand Penned Petals. Plus the tag using the Celebrate with Tags stamp set.
Each card is finished in the inside and has a matching envelope.
The set is packaged in a craft Gift box from Stampin' Up! and the ribbon and tag coordinate perfectly.
You will love using this fun Masking Technique:
Stamp your outline image in Black Memento ink.
Cover the front with 3 strips of masking paper, spaced however you like, You can have them all the same width or a variety of widths (like mine). Then use the blending brush to sponge ink on the card. Use as much color as you want. I kept mine fairly light and used varigated depth of color to get the ombre effect. You can try it and change it to suit your taste.
Tip - masksng paper can be extra tacky and tear your paper. test your masking paper first and it it has a tendency to tear the paper, presess it against your shirt or pants leg a couple of times to reduce the tackiness.
Make someone's Christmas special this year!
