Hello Crafters!
Father’s Day is around the corner and so I’m using the stamp set, Beside Me, which lends itself perfectly for this occasion. It has some sweet father / child images and sentiments. In addition to the stamp, I’m using two other stencils from the Artistic Mix Decorative mask for the background. I love creating with these masks. It’s simple to use and gives your cards a big wow.
In my last post, I wrote about ways to use these masks. Today I want to share with you another card using the Artistic Mix Mask. This time I layered two stencils. Here’s how the background looks.
I sponged Copper Clay ink on top and Pecan Pie ink at the bottom. I intentionally left a gap between the two sections. After inking the first mask with blending brushes, I placed the second mask over the openings and sponged with Wild Wheat ink. As you can see, I only sponged the second mask at the two opposite corners.
Card Details
- Pecan Pie card base 5-1/2″ x 8-1/2″ scored at 4-1/4″
- Background sponged using Pecan Pie, Copper Clay and Wild Wheat inks with the two of the masks from the Artistic Mix Masks set.
- Image was stamped with Memento Black ink on white cardstock that was die cut from the Scalloped Contours die. Some parts of the image were colored with ink and blender pen (Crushed Curry, Boho Blue and Pecan Pie. Other parts with Pumpkin Pie, Light Basic Black and Ivory Stampin’ Blends.
- Polka Dots on the hat were done with the Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blend.

In my next post, I’ll share another way to use the mask using another set of stencils. I hope you will give them a try.
