Wonderful You

This is another card from last weekend's Stamp-A-Stack. I like the bright colours on this card and the different way to layer card stock in behind the main image - it's refreshing to see the Regal Rose card stock cut differently so it's not just another layer...

This card uses the Wonderful You stamp set. In order to stamp this and not have the leaves layered on top of the flowers, we used the masking technique. It's really quite simple - stamp the flowers first. Then stamp them again onto a Post-It Note so that part of the flower is on the sticky part of the note. Cut it out, preferably just inside the line of the flower. Stick the Post-It Note cut outs on top of the stamped flowers and then stamp the leaves (these were stamped off once). Once you are done, you can easily remove the Post-It Note cut outs and you will not have the leaves stamped on top of the flowers.

By the way, just a reminder that the Occasions Mini Catalogue will expire in just a few days - June 30th is your last chance to order any of the items in this mini catalogue!

Happy stampin'!
