Welcome to Week 66 of CAS(E) This Sketch! Take a look at this week's sketch by Julie Day:
I decided to break out my severely neglected Distress Inks for this card. I cut a scalloped mask and went to work with my inks. I'm not great at this technique. No matter how careful I am I always get ink under the mask. After a few attempts though I finally got a clean image. I stamped the Paper Smooches kite and clouds and then paper pieced them and popped up the kite. I added a few pink gems under the sentiment to help tie it into the design a little more. As always I can't wait to see what you come up with so check out the rest of the gorgeous DT designs and get craftin'!

Cardstock: (White) Bazzill
Patterned Paper: (Allison Kreft Sweet Note 6x6) Webster's Pages
Stamps: (Kite & Clouds from Cut Loose, Sentiment from Many Thanks) Paper Smooches

Love the echo of the clouds in the scalloped edge of the sky!
ReplyDeleteSuper sweet take on the sketch, Jen!
ReplyDeleteI see no problems with this masking -- if you hadn't said, I would have assumed it was an added layer. Really nice. We have the wind for kite-flying right now, but... no. :P

ReplyDeleteSuch a fab, positive card and it was a great idea to use masking.
