Enjoying some Masking

I’m back with another card for the online card class – Clean and Simple Card making 3.

Today I cut some stars out of some masking paper and then used the negative space as a mask. Then I clear heat embossed the Hero Arts Flower Dot pattern before blending in a rainbow of colours. Happy and bright and a one layer card 🙂

It’s hard to tell, but I covered the colourful stars in some clear Wink of Stella brush glitter pen.

    Brilliant card, not only in the choice of colours but in the emotion it evokes; it made me smile.

    You’re the winner and I am not surprised. This is a fabulous card, and the fact that it is homework from OCC is even better. Pinned already.
