Technique of the Week: Reverse Masking
The first thing you’ll want to do is choose a shape for your mask. You can use a punch of any size or a square, circle, rectangle – whatever you like. Here, I’m using my Coluzzle to cut an oval big enough for this rose image from Inkadinkadoo.
Once you’ve cut your shape, you want to keep the negative image and not the shape itself.
Line up the mask where you want it to be on your card.
Start adding color to the card; I used a sponge to add Kiwi Kiss ink, but you can add color however. (You can also stamp over your mask.*)
Once the color is finished, remove the mask to reveal the shape on the card.
Finish your card.
*I have created another sample using reverse masking that shows stamping over the mask.
I saw the oval and really wanted to make an egg so here’s my second sample of today’s Technique of the Week.
I hope you’re enjoying these tutorials. Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
