Masking is one of my all time favorite techniques. You can use masking with so many different mediums. I challenge you to make your own mask and use masking in a unique way on your card, page or altered item. Your mask can be as simple as punching circles and using the negative for your back ground or more intricut fussy cut or machine cut mask. I woul love to see you use both the positive and negative of your mask on your project. I can't wait to see how you use masking.

Entries are due by August 31st, 11:59 PST
Be sure to add the keyword "tech6" to your gallery upload
Uploading your entry by the due date will get you one entry in a drawing to win 1 of 4 $10 Gift Cards!

For this card I created a simple square mask to use. First I used the small square in the center and my copic air brush to add some orange color to the kraft cardstock. Then I used the larger square around the outside to stamp my images. You can use repositional tape to hold your mask in place.


Take a look at what Kimmy & Nicolle created using a masking technique...

I've never done masking before and didn't have any actual masks so I used some diecuts. I tried a few times using sprays but just made a huge mess so I did this with chalk ink and the blending tool. I was able to load it into the gallery but am having trouble getting it loaded here. I'll give it yet another try......

no luck
