Blended/Masked Flowers

I was seeing some lovely butterflies and flowers on card samples, and had no idea where they were coming from... Well, they were coming from a new set of Decorative Layering Masks from the January-June Mini Catalog. They are gorgeously fun!!  So many color possibilities!!  This would make a good instructional video as well!!  So, stay tuned!!  This one uses 2 shades of pink/purple to make the delicate flowers.  I mounted it on some pretty DSP from the FREE SAB Friendly Hello DSP.

Measurements:  

  • Fresh Freesia: 1/2 sheet
  • Friendly Hello DSP (N) (SAB): 4" x 5 1/4"
  • Basic White: 3 1/2" x 4 3/4"
To Make This Card:

  • Attach DSP to folded Fresh Freesia card.
  • Cut 2nd largest scalloped rectangle from White piece.
  • Attach "detailed" mask to White piece with removable tape.  Apply lightest ink color to mask with Blending Brush, using a circular motion. Remove mask.
  • Next, move mask to larger floral image.  Line up center circles and attach over sponged image with removable tape. Apply next shade of ink to mask with Blending Brush using circular motion. Remove mask.
  • Now, we'll add some "greenery".  There are 2 different types of greenery.  Select your desired "leaves" or mix and match.  You will move the "greenery" mask around to match the curves of your flowers.  Tape down, and repeat as above.
  • Note: you can easily re-sponge or add additional color simply by realigning mask!
  • Attach finished piece over DSP, with Dimensionals.
  • Finish with new, InColor jewels.
