Got 10? 10 Minute Card with Elements of Style Stamp Set and the Masking Technique
October 20th, 2010
Welcome to this week’s Got 10 feature! We are all busy, but love to craft, right? So a card in 10 minutes or less is something that we can all fit into our lives.
The first thing I did for this card is cut an oval from the Scallop Oval Big Shot Die to use as a mask.
I sponged Pretty in Pink ink around it, then stamped Elements of Style Stamp Set on top of it before removing the mask.
Next, I stamped Thank You right in the middle of the mask.
For a 5 minute card, this is all you do! Adhere this to your card base and you are DONE!
Imagine this in blue with snowflakes and you’ve got your quick, easily mass-produced Holiday Cards!
If you want to "fancy up" your card a bit, add some ribbon and a Filigree Brad if you like. Here, I added a rhinestone brad in the middle of the Filigree Brad.
