Greatest Journey Masking Technique Card Tutorial

Today’s card is one that I made for my daughters friend who loves to run and it uses a fun masking technique that you create with a Blending Brush. This technique can be a lot of fun and the options are endless depending on the colors you choose.

today’s card uses Pumpkin Pie and Melon Mambo – a color combination that struck me as a good choice for running. (And the fact they had thought of an orange car made me think it would be a hit. lol).

The card uses the Greatest Journey stamp set which is filled with some wonderful sentiments such as this one. Let me show you how I created this fun card in my video tutorial.

Check it out and enjoy.

Something Fancy

Do you love sentiment sets? How about a great label die set? Well I think you’ll love the Something Fancy Bundle (160425) if you do as much as I do.

Sentiment sets are great to use by them selves or with your favorite image set, Designer Series Paper or even Embossing Folder. Check out today’s cards and you’ll see exactly what I mean.

This first card teams up the sympathy sentiment and dies with the Painted Posies 3D Embossing Folder (159175) and Sun Prints Designer Series Paper (158790).

The embossed image has been highlighted with a bit of Classic Ink using a Blending Brush. This next card uses the fun paper strip technique along with the Decorative Circle Punch (159174) and Deckled Rectangle Dies (159173) to create this fun birthday card.

And here is another birthday card using the Regency Park Designer Series Paper (160559) for a fun floral feel.

The Very Best Occasions

Sentiment stamp sets are one of my favorite things to add to my collection. They give me a fresh new selection of greetings that breath life into sets I already have on my shelf. Are you a sentiment set fan too?

The Very Best Occasions stamp set (159871) not only has holiday sentiments in it, it also has all occasion sentiments that I can use throughout the year making it a great value. And if you love punches check out the Very Best Trio Punch (159878) that is part of the Very Best Occasions Bundle (159879) and save 10%.

Here are some lovely cards using the sentiments from this set. This first card uses Heat Embossing in silver to create the focal point of the card and the coordinating punch has been used to add interest.

The Silver Metallic Edge Cotton Ribbon (159193) adds a bit more shine. This next fun fold card uses the same sentiment but adds the wonderful Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (Host 159913) for a fun bold color pallet. The Decorative Circle Punch (159174) adds a whimsical feel to the project and a bit of shimmer was added with the Opal Rounds (1542898). Can you see them on the ornaments?

And how about this next card? The traditional colors found in the Sweetest Christmas Designer Series Paper (159559) make a great back drop for this sentiment on this fun fold card that will stand up with just a couple of score lines. You simply take your 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ Garden Green panel and score at the 2″, 3 1/8″, 5 3/8″, 6 1/2″ marks.

And how about this elegant card using the Labels Aglow Dies (159551) and Boughs of Holly Designer Series Paper (159600) for a little bit of elegance?

Last but not least here is a Valentine card using the set along with Real Red & White Glimmer Paper (159578) and the same Designer Series Paper as the card above. The back side of this holiday paper has wonderful patterns and textures too making it extend the use of the paper into the new year.

The Heart Punch Pack (151292) and Painted Texture 3D Embossing Folder (154317) from the Annual Catalog add texture and interest.

So what do you think no two cards alike, right? Isn’t that one of the great things about paper crafting? We start with the same stamp set and end up with tons of choices! Have a favorite card? Why not leave me a comment today and let me know which one you like?
