Happy Aloha Friday everyone!!
I'm over at Renate's and we are working on the last details before we trek to Sacramento. Looks like we are not getting any sleep, so who else is awake with us? My sistas from Hawaii?!! Gimme a holla! hehehe...
For today's LFF #40 share I have one of the first Sister Stamps playing on my card. Say hello to Kiyomi and her little friend.
I've always wanted to do this masking technique, so decided to give it a go. First I stamped the cherry blossom background using different shades of Fall colored Distress inks. Next I used an oval Spellbinder die to cut out that shape and using removable tape adhered it to the center of the card. Next I used more Distress ink and went around the card. When I was satisfied I removed the oval in the center and ta-da!! A nice white frame perfect for Kiyomi and her butterfly friend. The rest of the card came together pretty fast and I found the perfect sentiment to go with. Thanks AmyR for always having the right saying when I need one.
Alrighty time for me to get back to work. Hope you all have a terrific Aloha Friday!! Mahalo for stopping by!!
Hugs,
Lilo
