Magic in Card Making: Masking Tips
Make sure to watch the video to see how I was able to stamp the little guy on the left BEHIND the one on the right.
Card Recipe:
- Melon Mambo: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
- Whisper White: 5″ x 3 3/4″
- Basic Black: 5 1/8″ x 3 7/8″
All cards actually use this exact same recipe. Just change the color of the card base.
Don’t they look like a trio singing a song?
Greeting for this one is from the WELL SAID stamp set and the die cut “wishes” is from the WELL WRITTEN dies.
I really think this guy looks quite down in the dumps or not feeling well!

Jackie I received a thank you note a couple of days ago for my last order. I love the Christmas card that was enclosed. What black ink and what red ink did you use to stamp the red bird? I have not order as much this year as I normally do because of health issues. Hopefully I can start getting my energy back now.
Have you sent out the new catalog? If so I have not received one. I would love to have one.
Hope you and yours have a happy. healthy Christmas and New Year.
Hi Jeannette! I’ll have to get back to you and which inks those were as I’m not in the office right now. I’m sorry to hear that you haven’t been feeling well. I’m sending get-well wishes your way and hoping you feel MUCH better soon. Catalogs will be going out soon if you haven’t received yours in the next couple of weeks let me know. Merry Christmas to you too!!
Jeannette, I’m so sorry but I’m not sure which card I sent you. If you can send me a picture I can probably tell you what I used. Thanks so much!
