Masking at Charisma Cardz

Good morning all!  It's time for another exciting challenge at Charisma, and this week we want see projects using the masking technique.  To be sure, this had me adjusting my thinking cap, but it was a lot of fun and I'm really quite pleased with the result.


For my card, I've played with the Silver Fairy image (from Wee Stamps), and then I over-stamped the grasses using a stamp from Stämpelkällan.  I've coloured with copics and pencils, choosing some nice soft colours for spring.  The pretty DP is from Echo Park, and I've edged it all with silver peel-offs to coordinate with the silver glitter paper.  The sentiment and the leaf/vines die cuts are both from Whimsy Stamps, and would you believe I won them along with the fairy image?........thanks so much Jacques!

Once again, we have some wonderful sponsors and some lovely prizes!
