Masks

Hi everyone.

Had a lovely evening at Scrapbook Sisters Christmas party tonight. It was lovely to catch up with everyone. Karen was doing her best to put everyone off the vol-a-vonts (oh that spelling doesn’t look quite right) but we all knew what her game was! They were delicious. I expect some pictures will be appearing on their blog soon.

Anyway this evening I am sharing a mask card that I taught at my last class. They will be available soon as digi stamps.

 

my cards 293This first one was water coloured using the Black Soot distress ink  pad.

my cards 295I added detail by stitching through the mask with  a gold thread and added the clear gems.

my cards 294I cut  out another flower stitched  and layered it on top and added the beads in the centre. Gold glitter was used for the circles .

my cards 297 I then wound ribbon around around a kebab stick and secured it behind the mask. To give the mask more depth the glue is applied to each side of the mask only and stuck to the black background so that the mask bows out slightly.

There will be some more masks so check back later in the week.

Thanks for stopping by.
