How to Mask an Area of a Card – Ink Blending

How to Mask an Area of a Card – Ink Blending – Merriest Moments – Christmas Card – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – UK

The photo doesn’t do this card justice. It is difficult to photograph the variations and depth the ink blending gives this card.

In this Focus Friday project, I’m looking at using masking paper to create an image on the card. Here I’ve used it to make this perfect white circle surrounded by the inked background. I’ve used the layering circle dies to cut the circle out of masking paper. You can re-use this mask so keep the backing paper safe.
