I'm taking part in the OWH Clean & Simple card Blog Skip.
We are giving our take on cards from the Online Card Classes "Clean & Simple" class that some of us took. You can still take it self-paced here:

I used a monochromatic masking technique for my one layer card.
The next stop on the Skip is Sheila's blog:

Wonderful card and you masked that sentiment area great- very clean edges. Also, thanks for sharing the link to the CAS class.
ReplyDeleteWonderful CAS card! I have a feeling i would ruin a lot of paper before I could mange to mask an area as cleanly as you did here but the effect is great so it could be worth the risk to give this technique a try. Great work, thanks for supporting OWH!
ReplyDeleteSue, what a great idea. Saves on adhesive. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteSue, Very nice card. Fabulous masking! That's something I need to practice more. Thanks for taking part in the skip. Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteLoved this CAS card. The red is a wonderful cheery color to use.
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful card! I love monochromatics and the masking just sets the sentiment off perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI have tried to make this card - and the only good thing I got was the stamped mask :)
ReplyDeleteKudoes to you for accomplishing it.
thankss for supporting OWH
