TLC111 - Reverse Masking

[showmestamper]

This week we are going to do Reverse Masking.

Here is an example from Lynn/allee. See how the box has all the fun hearts and ladybugs stamped on it? She did that using this technique. Isn't that fun?

Here is another by Rachelhope13. The main panel is stamped with a reverse mask, and the last stem on the lower left is stamped without the mask, adding a lot of dimension to her card.

Here is Beate's Tutorial.

More information from Lynn/allee in this thread.


When you upload, please choose the "Masking-Reverse" category under Techniques (rather than the main stamp set) since this technique is listed under our Resources page and use the keyword TLC111.



My kids are home today so we will be taking turns with the computer! If you have questions, it may be a while til I can answer them. Hopefully someone else will have the answers.
Have fun!

I like this technique. I will get to it right after a couple of gottas.

[Jeanne S]

Fun stuff Beth!!!

[auntynanny]

I have been wanting to try this technique for ages and this may just be the push that I need. If I finish off with the wedding invitations tonight (crossing my fingers), I will give this technique a shot. In the meantime, I will steal some time here at work and peek at everybody's creations.

[Twinshappy]

I have never done this before. Oooohhhh......... Will have to play later I think. Thanks Beth!

[raduse]

Boy do I wish I was home today. Will have to wait until after work though.

[lacyquilter]

Oh, fun one, Beth. Hope I can play today. Have to work for awhile and also take DS to dr.

This is a fun technique! I'll have to try after aerobics class...

[Cre8tveLdy]

Oh boy! I have a great idea for this one, but I have to wait until I get home from work this afternoon. Maybe I'll wait until tomorrow and combine it with the color challenge.

[Cre8tveLdy]

I just remembered one I have in my gallery from a LONG time ago, so I thought I'd share:

In Full Bloom

ROFL - here's one I did a little bit ago. I had no idea what the technique was called! I was more focused on the frame - I guess I have to go and scour Beate's tutorials (I thought I was being so clever and original ) It was fun - hopefully I will be able to make another today... I edited the photo to add the technique and keyword, so approval is still pending.

Thanks, Beth, for using my card and explanation for today's challenge!!
Hope everyone has fun with this technique. The cards I have seen so far are fabulous!! Great job, ladies!!

[kookydelucy]

First time using this technique, love the challeges!!! Twinkling H2O's are awesome if you havent had a chance to us them you should try some! We have a local SS here is RI named Bella Art that is having classes using these, that is how I found them!!! TFL~

[sherristampsalot]

I can do this...if I can get some stamp time! I love this technique! Thanks Beth!

[Mary56]

I too like this technique -- but I've always used it for representational things (like jelly beans in a bag for bugs in a jar), I'm going to try something more abstract like Beate's tutorial! Thanks for the challenge.

[kellyjg]

Oh my, Beth! I remember viewing Beate's tutorial when it originally posted but never tried the technique. Loved it then and I am excited to try the challenge! Thanks for offering!

[Vicky Gould]

This is the very first time I've used this checkered SU frame which must be at least six years old!!! Cuttlebug on the Hunter Green.

For You
