Hello! I admit it, I love butterflies. As a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I receive a wonderful magazine every other month. It is full of business ideas as well as creative ideas. When I saw a masking technique with a butterfly, I knew I had to CASE (Copy And Share Everything) it! Here is my take on masking...
So, how do I mask, you ask? Well, the easiest way is to use a Post-It sticky note. I used the largest full butterfly on the Beautiful Butterflies Bigs die. Ran it thru my Big Shot with the Post-It. Then I stuck it to my Whisper White cardstock and sponged Marina Mist ink on the inside of the butterfly. Then, keeping the Post-It on and covering all of the White cardstock with Post-Its, use the En Francais background stamp with Chocolate Chip ink to create the wording in the butterfly. It might take a few tries to get it the way you want, but it is definitely worth it! Top it off with the varying sizes of pearls. Then just tie a piece of Marina Mist ribbon and a couple of matching punched butterflies. Voila! Your cute, simple card is complete. You could add a greeting at the bottom or just leave it for the inside.
