I am trying a new technique, well at least new to me, as I have never try it myself. I am using Thankful Garden bundle that is an on-line exclusive and it has masks! I have watched other people make beautiful cards using the masks so I figure it was time to play along! I wanted to Moody Mauve one last time before it official retires on May 5th. I stamped the flowers in Momento black ink and then got out the blending brushes.

A few tips I can tell you is mark your notch, it makes it a whole lot easier to line up the images. I used post-it flags to get the paper secured. I did brush off a little bit of the ink before I started on the image, you are building layers, so the lighter the better. You can always go back and add more color when you are done. There are dies for this set, so you don’t have to fussy cut, I almost got the flower lined up perfect, almost!

The base of the card is Moody Mauve, followed by another layer and the designer series paper is Everyday Skies 6×6, then the flower using Moody Mauve and Old Olive inks. Finally some Starburst Sequins, I know the color is Fresh Freesia but in real life they look great on the card, just a little off in the picture.
