Tutorial Thursday: Masking with Dies

Hello! Happy Thursday to you all..

Joy here bringing you another Tutorial Thursday..

This week I am sharing a Halloween card with you all and using masking with dies..

Using some masking paper, I trimmed a piece down to measure slightly smaller then a standard size 

4 1/4 x 5 1/2 inch card, I die cut the Stitched Circle out of the trimmed piece of masking paper and taking another piece of masking paper, I die cut the Scary Tree, keeping both negative and positive pieces to use on the card...

Using the negative piece of masking with the die cut circle, place onto a trimmed piece of white card stock of the same size..

Once the masking paper is adhered down to the white card stock, start to apply distress inks to create a moon feature..

Removing this masking paper, I then added the die cut Scary Tree, using the negative die cut of the tree, applying black soot ink..

Once this has had time to dry, this is where the positive pieces come into play, applying directly back over the inked sections, then start to apply different coloured distress inks to get the spooky sky scene..

Here is another look of the card, I also die cut some Eerie Bats and a sentiment from Egyptian Mummy Luka to add just a little more addition to the card..

I hope you take your dies out and see what scenes you can create using masking..

Thanks for stopping by today!

Hugs

Happy Halloween - Lil' Devil Marci!

Here is my card with one of our stamps from the NEW Halloween Release - this is our Lil' Devil Marci!  I kept my card simple and let the gorgeous papers, the image and the dies take a stage.

 

I used both flourishes from our  Creepy Vines Die.  It's so nice to have two that are a mirror image of each other!

Marci and the whole front panel are raised on foam tape, gives the card more dimension.

This is what I did inside of my card.  I used our Frightful Fence Die and one of the bats from Eerie Bats Die set.  Sentiment is included with Lil' Devil Marci stamp!

I actually really love how the inside of the cards turned out.  I think it would make a nice simple Halloween card on it's own!

Lil' Devil Marci was colored with Copics:

Skin - E00, E01, E11, E13
Blush - R20, R30, R21
Hair - E02, E08, E17, E18, RV69
Outfit - RV52, RV55, RV66, RV69
Boots - C1, C3, C5, C7, C9
