Hello and welcome to day #1 of sneak peek week!
Today I am so excited to share one of the new stampsets that are coming to the inspired stamps store WEDNESDAY, MAY 18th!!
This is a stampset all about birthdays....BIRTHDAYS comes with several different phrases and verses plus the cute cupcake you see 3 times in this card:
Now look at the inside for 3 more stamps that are in this set:
This card used prima flower, spellbinders die, Momento ink, and scrap paper from my scrap bin, plus some machine sewing on the front. Here are the Copic markers I used to color the cupcakes:
How did I get three cupcakes? Here comes my masking photo tutorial so you can get as many cupcakes as your heart desires!
First, I stamped the cupcake onto my paper. Then I stamped it onto the Mask-It material (you can also use sticky notes or clear contact paper if you prefer):
Next I cut out the outline of the cupcake and took off the backing (I held it in front of the ink pad so you can see it easily):
Put that mask over your cupcake:
Next, I stamped the cupcakes that I wanted to sit next to and slightly behind my original cupcake:
Notice how the cupcakes stamp on top of the mask I put down. Remove the mask now for the big reveal:
Ta-da! Just remember when masking that you will be stamping and masking what is in FRONT. So the other cupcakes (or other image) will appear behind the masked image. I colored these in with my copics that I showed above and here is the finished card again:
Be sure to come back each day, now through Wednesday and leave a comment when you can....several wonderful prizes will be announced this weekend in one of my postings, so be sure to come back soon!!
Until tomorrow,
Be the blessing,
