Mother Teresa

Photo Details

Poster: Mathilda

Had to use the sentiment from ODBDS ... by Mother Teresa ... as I tried a new technique today ... one that I have been procrastinating on.

Bridget has a very detailed tutorial on 'Basic Reverse Masking' which can be found here ...
Tuesday Tutorial #3 {1-24-12} Basic Reverse Masking by bfinlay at Splitcoaststampers
It is a lot of fun and I learnt something new today ;)

When I read the exciting challenge by Toni over at Ways to Use It (has requested repetition) ... knew I just had to made my card with the reverse masking technique. The floral spray from Verve 'because of you' stamp set has been stamped thrice and the clouds have been masked several times.

What do you think?? Thanks so much for sharing some of your time with me today.

Oh my goodness, Mathilda, this is absolutely fabulous! I love the way you created an atmospheric sky, and repeated the gorgeous Verve flower silhouette - you completely made this your own and nailed the technique with style!!
If you'd like to, you should post this beauty in the Tutorial Tuesday thread so everyone who's thinking of giving this a try could enjoy it too!
