WOW Card!!!!
10/18/2009
Holy cow! I found this card on line and just had to give it a try! It looked so easy...it's just masking!!!! This is a Zindorf original.
First punch a 1 3/4" circle from post-it notes and put it on the white layer. Sponge around the "moon" and along the top with Night of Navy ink.
Next I tear a piece of typing weight paper and use the torn edge to sponge the "snow hill" on the bottom right.
Again with the masking - this time using a straight edge on typing paper and stamping the top of the pine tree from Lovely as a Tree stamp set.
Here's what it's lookin' like so far....
Put one more mask on the left side as shown in the finished card at the top of this post, stamp some more tree tops, sponge in a little Almost Ameythst ink around the bottom of the moon and in some of the white spaces....stamp your adorable Santa & Sleigh, add a little Dazzling Diamonds to the tiny little stars and WAAAA LAAAA!!!!!
