Christmas Lodge Card
Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Paper Crafts

For: Other

Style: Holiday


Materials

Cardstock, ink, ribbon, stamps, die cutting machine, embossing folder, shimmer paint, rhinestones

What was your inspiration?

I wanted to use this technique, reverse masking, to create a soft frame for the stamp. I decided to go for a monochromatic look, with lots of texture added with embossing.

What are you most proud of?

I love the variety of textures and how they work together.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

For reverse masking, I love using freezer paper. After you create the opening you sponge through, you use the template plastic side down. The paper side can take a lot of ink, but the plastic keeps the ink from seeping through to the back, so that you can use the template again and again.

This is beautiful. Would love to know more about reverse masking. Not sure what or how the technique is accomplished.
