Hello, Gaylynn here. Sea turtle masking is great for scene building with stamping. Today, on the Unity blog, I am sharing a tropical card using turtle stamping along with pretty patterned paper.
A mix of pretty paper along with sea turtle masking help to make this card come to life. I requested a sea turtle stamp, and Lea Keisling then designed the stamp kit for Unity. How awesome is that? The elements are found in the August 2021 Whit Kit Card Kit.
Sentiment: Keep swimming.
Helpful tips:
Here are helpful tips for making this card. To begin, stamp two of the turtles onto a pre-trimmed cardstock panel. Then, stamp two more turtles onto scrap paper. Color in the turtles on the card panel. Next, fussy cut (cut out) the two extra turtles to use for masking. Using repositionable tape, mask the turtles with the cutout ones. Next, using a stencil, blend the color over the masked panel. Then, remove the stencil and the masks. Also, trim a background layer from patterned paper. Finally, layer it all onto the card base, to finish.
This is another look.
Here is my video tutorial for this project. It will detail the full process.
