Masking Summertime

I'm playing along this week as Guest Designer for the CAS weekly challenge over on Splitcoast.  This week we are being challenged to create a one layer card using the technique of masking, CAS228.

On a piece of Curious Metallic Cryogen white cardstock, I stamped the palm tree image from Taylored Expressions with Marvy black dye ink.  I stamped the image again on a Post-It note and covered the palm tree on my card base.  I then used a negative of a Nestabilities die cut and sponged SeaShells Conch Shell dye onto the paper from top of the negative window to about 2/3 of the way down.  I then sponged some Distress It Tumbled Glass along the bottom 1/3.  Using a negative of a circle cut with a Nestabilities die, I stamped a chevron pattern from Darcie with Adirondack Sunset Orange dye.  I then sponged around the negative with the Adirondack Sunset Orange.  Using Distress It Tumbled Glass dye ink, I stamped the Taylored Expression wave image onto the sponged blue.  Removing the palm tree mask and the Nestabilities negative window, I then colored the image with Copic markers.

The sentiment is also from Taylored Expressions and was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black.

Thanks so much for visiting my blog today!  I hope this summer is treating you right.
