I stamped up a couple of flowers onto two large Post-It notes which have low tack adhesive across the whole of the back, and cut them out. I used these as masks. I stamped out a single flower onto my Whisper White layer, then covered it with one of the masks. Then I stamped again half way off and half way onto the masked flower. I then used the second mask to cover the second flower and stamped again. I simply repeated the process again and again until I had a collection of flowers. I added some stamped leaves too. TOP TIP here - store the masks in your stamp set for future use !
Then I selected some of my Blends and had a nice relaxing time colouring and blending, which I always find both absorbing and therapeutic.
I absolutely love the stamped sentiment which is from the Cool Treats photopolymer stamp set.
I layered my card onto a piece of black card stock and then finally onto a note card.
I think the result is pretty "cool".
Masking is a fun technique - and if you haven't tried it, I would highly recommend it.
Well I hope you like it. Thanks for looking and I would love you to pop back again.
I am off to make the most of some much appreciated sunshine.
Enjoy your day.

Linda, would you consider doing on video on this technique, please. I am getting a little confused (yes, I am 72). Mine didn't turn out even a quarter as nice as yours. THANK YOU in anticipation.

I love the masking you have done here with the large floral images. I haven't done any masking for a while now, so I think I am going to look for a large floral image stamp and recreate a design similar to yours if that is ok.
