SDC22: Masking

Today over at the Stampotique Designer's Challenge Vicki has challenged us to use masking on our project.  Our guest designer for January, Jenn Shurkus has put together a little tutorial on how she completed her masking project.


Stamp images on Eclipse tape

Cut out your mask, it doesn't need to be perfect

sometimes you will need to use an exacto to cut out the inside spots, i love the finger xacto from fiskars

 store your masks right on your stamps!
you can see here the eclipse tape as well

stamp the fence, cover with masks
stamp people

once you stamp the people, cover them with masks
then stamp hearts





Now hop on over to the Stampotique Designer's Challenge and join us for a chance to win a $30 gift certificate to the Stampotique store.
