CTC #360 CASE A Masking Project

The CASE-ing The Catty Crew are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from Australia & New Zealand who take inspiration weekly from the catalogues. The catalogues are a fantastic resource and we love to inspire you to seek inspiration there too.

Masking can be done in a few different ways. You can use purchased masks such as the ones shown in the picture above, you can die cut and make your own and you can mask images with paper to give dimension to the piece you are working on. You can use ink, pastels or paste for dimension. 

I've used one of the Stampin' Up! masks from Basic Patterns (#150697) in the Annual catalogue, to imitate the background of the left-hand card above.A blending brush loaded with ink was blended into linen. The linen paper is 12" x 12", self-adhesive and can be found on page 136 of the Annual catalogue. 

I loved the way the ink spread slightly giving a soft, blurred look.

Since I was CASE-ing that card, I've used flowers and a label toward the right.

We love having you join in our challenges. Ask to join our Facebook group, and then add a picture of your CASE, and let us know which card or project you've CASE-d. No blog required, no special qualifications.
