Masking Technique. . . Awesomely Artistic

We made this card in my September Coffee and Cards class.

Thick Whisper White card stock 8.5 x 5.5
Window Sheet ( to create mask)
Square Punch
Perfect Plum Ink
Elegant Eggplant Ink
Awesomely Artistic stamp set
Sponges
Wink of Stella pen
Masking Tape

Method:
1.  Make a mask by cutting a piece of window sheet the same size as your card.  Punch three evenly spaced squares in the window sheet using the square punch.
2.  Adhere card to mask and then to table using post it masking tape.  This is very important as you do not want you card  to move when you are sponging.
3.  Using Perfect Plum ink and sponge apply color through the windows until you are satisfied with the results.
4.  Ink up dragonfly image in Elegant Eggplant and stamp through the window.  Be careful not to get halo around your image....you can see on my card I did get a halo on one....grrrr
5.  Remove the mask.
6.  Stamp greeting with Elegant Eggplant ink
7.  Fold your card
8.  Apply wink of stella clear to the wings to add some glittery sparkle.
