Our challenge at Crafty Cardmakers today and for the next two weeks is one of masking. We want you to combine two or more images/stamps, either digitally or the old traditional way with a separately stamped mask.
I have combined four stamps to make my card. I started with Riley (the prima doll stamp) and then masked her off and stamped first one wing and then the other. I then masked the wings off as well, whilst keeping the doll mask in place and stamped the background with a Justrite background stamp. I obviously could just have stamped the doll and cut her out, but I wanted to give the impression of dimension without it being too thick to go through the post at the lower postage rate!
I coloured the doll stamp in with copics.
I matted the stamped image onto some gorgeous self adhesive glitter vinyl, and that in turn onto some embossed brown cardstock. I glittered her wings, and added some shading around her to lift her off the background. A small metal corner and birthday sentiment finished it off.
I am entering this into:-
