Inspired by Nature - Reverse Masking

This is one of the cards was made at a number of Stampin' Up! workshops during February and March. I love this card and cased it off someone from Splitcoaststampers but cannot remember who it was.




Details about the card: I made a template for the Reverse Masking Technique as well as for the sponging and paper piercing. That way we created an assembly line and making the square grass image went a lot quicker. Also, the flower was inked up by using markers only.


Dimensions in inches:


Naturals White card base - 4 1/4 x 11
Chocolate Chip - 4 1/8 x 5 3/8
Bravo Burgundy - 4 x 5 1/4
Naturals White - 3 3/4 x 5


Template - 3 3/4 x 3 3/4 (I used my Scorpal to score a 3/4" line down each side, then used my hobby blade and ruler to cut the square out.)


Supplies:


Stamps: Inspired by Nature, It's Your Birthday (retired)
Paper: Naturals White, Chocolate Chip, Bravo Burgundy
Ink: Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Ruby Red Marker, Bravo Burgundy Marker, Old Olive Marker

Accessories: Square Masking Template (homemade from cardboard), Sponge, Paper Piercer, Mat Pack, Burgundy Grosgrain Ribbon, Aged Copper Hodgepodge Hardware (retired)

P.S. This card is dedicated to Val who has mentioned that I haven't posted in a while. Thanks for the nudge. :)
