Wood in a Window Hello Card

This is one of the techniques I taught my stampers this week.  I called it Wood in a Window.  The Hardwood background stamp is fabulous in so many applications.  However, sometimes, a portion of the background is perfect like I did here:

Wood in a Window-Hello Card

This technique is a masking technique.

I used a piece of copy paper larger than the top layer of the card; I then ran it through the Big Shot with a Circle framelit.  Once the background was inked (and left facing up), I put the copy paper mask on top followed by the Very Vanilla layer.  After smoothing the layer over the background, I lifted it off and let quickly dry.

I then reused the mask over the Very Vanilla layer to stamp the flowers (from the Flowering Fields Sale-A-Bration stamp set).  I colored them in with markers and added the hello phrase from the Hello Sale-A-Bration stamp set and the butterfly from the Flowering Fields stamp set.

A perfect card to send to someone who may need their spirits lifted!
