Mask-erade Day 1

Hi there!

Just a quick post tonight to share a card I created for day 1 of the newest online card class called, Mask-erade


Debby Hughes shared a technique using both the negative and positive portions of the mask. Here's my take. 


I used an oval die and the Botanicals 2 stamp set from Paper Smooches. The sentiment is from the Clearly Besotted set, Friends Forever. It's a simple, one layer card but I really like the way it turned out. All inks used were from Simon Says Stamp. 

This was the first time posting from my phone - hope it all works!

And I hope you're all doing well! I'm looking forward to some time off from work next week. Hoping to get some organizing done in my craft space and to plant my flowers and veggies. Our weather has not been very warm or sunny lately, so I'm really hoping it shapes up so I can spend some time outside! 

Thanks for stopping by!
Barb ❤️

I think I may be visiting your 'classroom' backwards ... which shouldn't surprise, right? LOve this, Barb, and am sitting here trying to figure out how you did it ... another cup of coffee might help! Enjoy your time off!
