Creating a scene with the masking technique? Being a relative beginner this is something that I have never attempted to do. Yikes! What have I gotten myself into? Now, mind you, after doing my card I realized how silly I can be worrying so much about the cards that I make. Perfectionism is the word that comes to mind. Let's see. What do I have on hand? When I was re-organizing and cleaning my studio I found my cloud making kit that I never got the chance to use before I lost it in the first place.
I also had bought the magnolia tree branch, the fence, and Tilda with daisy. I already had a die for the grass that I bought from MFT (My Favorite Things) that I thought would work perfectly. Let's not forget the colored twine that I used for the bow and the mini pearls for the flowers on the tree branch.
I love the way this turned out. The next time I will be making the clouds more prodominent but otherwise I am happy with the card that I made. Are you? Sylvia isn't playing with us this week but will be back with the DT next week. All of the other links are listed below the picture. Please take a minute to visit each of the blogs; I'm sure you won't regret it! Love, Elle
