Stampin'

Here is a card that I just finished. I was so happy with how it turned out I had to post it. It's using a "Masking-Reverse" technique. Basically I cut out a rectangle from paper and placed it over the cardstock. I used cotton balls (I don't have sponges) and appricot and cocoa inks to create the shading effect, then stamped the images. Because of the "mask" it creates this nice white boarder. I then just glued and tied on ribbon. I love making cards! It's such a creative outlet for me!! I will be teaching this technique at this month's Hostess Club. All products are Stampin' Up!
