Hello hello and happy Wednesday! I'm so excited to be back in the classroom sharing a card made with one of my favorite stamp companies (Mama Elephant!!!) and playing with a new to me product - the Molotow masking pen!
First, I used the adorable new set by Mama Elephant - New Family. Aren't these images just the cutest!!!
First, I stamped the adorable laurel branches.
Then, using my MISTI, I stamped a sentiment.
Then, to mask the laurels, I used a product I've never tried before and I must say I love - the Molotow masking pen!!! It's basically a pen that allows for detailed application of masking fluid - apply, let it dry and then use the mask. Once done, the mask will simply rub off! Here I added the Molotow masking pen to the leaves. I set it aside to dry.
To allow the masking to dry, I stamped all the images.
Then I die cut them out.
I colored them in with Copics.
I love this masking pen because cutting the little leaves out would have been impossible!!! I used post its to mask the outside of the laurels easily.
Then, I sponged ink over to create a scene.
Ta-da! I love how great that Molotow masking pen works!
Then, I colored the leaves in.
Finally I added a simple die cut border.
And secured everything with foam tape.
Lastly, I added some simple gel pen dots!
