Bike Ride

Hi Everyone!  This week I've done a tutorial on the CopicOz Blog on how to use Mask It!  Mask it is a really cool, low tack product that can be used over an over again and is perfect for creating custom masks for your stamps!!  Whenever I make a mask, I usually store it with the stamp set that it's used with so I can find it in future (if you saw my craft desk, you'd understand why!!  LOL!!!).

The card itself is pretty easy - a base of purple bazzill, a layer of white and a piece of Prima Meadow Lark DP.  Across the top two of those layers is a piece of wide white ribbon topped with a piece of purple ribbon.  The puppy image was stamped and masked, then the bike was stamped and the sentiment in the corner. (See the CopicOz Blog for details on how to do the masking.)  I've used my Copics to colour the image in -

Puppy - E42, E44, E47
Basket - E31, E33, E35, E37
Tyres, Seat, Metal - C1, C3, C5, C7
Bike - BV11, BV13, BV17
Blanket - RV000, RV52, RV55
Grass - YG11, YG13, YG17, YG61, YG63, E31
Sky - B0000

The scene was then cut out with Labels 8 Nestabilities and matted with Old Olive cut with the Decorative Labels 8 Nestabilities and the whole panel popped up on foam tape!  To finish I've added a little bling to the top corner.
