I demonstrated how to use reverse masking with the Daffodil Daydream Bundle on this recent Live.
The bundle consists of cling stamps and a coordinating die set. As well as cutting out the stamped images, there are also dies that you can layer up to produce detailed Daffodils.
In this first Live using this bundle I spotlighted the stamps and I used watercolour and watercolour pencils. In addition I used some of the new coordinating Sale-a-Bration papers – Daffodil Afternoon. You can choose these for free with any £45 order during sale-a-bration. Order the Daffodil Daydream Bundle and you can choose the papers for free.
How to Use Reverse Masking.
For my reverse masking, I cut am aperture from some scrap card using the die from the Hippo dies set. I then used a blending brush to add ink to the aperture and some stamped detail. The resulting panel gave a beautiful backdrop for the stamped, water coloured and die cut daffodils and butterflies.
I gave this card an Easter greeting and it was embellished with some Polished Dots.
Layered Patterned Papers
For this second card I used the Basic Border dies to shape the layers of Daffodil Afternoon Designer Series Paper. The stamped daffodils in the background were coloured with Watercolour pencils and a Blender Pen. The sentiment came from the Garden Wishes stamp set. this card was finished with some of the new Brushed Brass Butterflies.

You can see both these cards being created on this recording of my Live.

These stamps are really beautiful and as well as Easter and Mother’s Day, they will be great for Spring Birthdays, for Get Well Soon cards and even for Sympathy cards. Add them to your shopping basket and claim those free papers before February 28th.
