I have new goodies to play with and thought this hostess set would be perfect for the CAS challenge to do a one layer card with masking. I used Natural White cs as my base because I knew I wanted to paint my images. I cut an oval out of a sheet of sticky note and masked off the main part of the card. I sponged the oval in Soft Sky on both cards and left the mask in place as I continued. I also sponged the edges and corners of both the cards in Soft Sky.
For the floral card: I inked the full image with Versamark then Smoky Slate and embossed in clear. I then inked just the lower flower with a Versamarker and Slate marker and embossed it with clear ep too. I used a wet paint brush to pull ink from scribbled marker on acetate to paint my flowers. I masked over all the flowers and stamped the script bg in stamped off Slate,, and stamped the sentiment in Slate.
On the leaves card: I masked over the first leaves image and stamped a second and embossed them in clear. I stamped the script in stamped off Slate. I used the marker layering technique with Pear Pizzazz and Old Olive for the leaves and Rose Red and Cherry Cobbler on the buds-wetting them with some water to blend afterward. I pierced around the oval on the leaves card using the Occasions piercing guide. I used my Stampamajig to line up my sentiment and stamped in Basic Grey.
Hope you'll all join in and play along with this fun technique to make a pretty CAS card!
