Fun with Masking on the Wednesday Challenge
This week on the Wednesday Challenge we are having fun with masks! There are lots ways to mask off areas that you don’t want to be colored but one of my favorites is to stamp an image onto scrap paper, cut around it and then use that to mask another stamped image, in this way you can create a 3D effect scene. You can also choose to use die cuts, stencils, making fluids or even torn scraps of paper to create a mask! Whatever technique you choose we will be looking forward to seeing what you make!
We are showcasing Altenew Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in, but if you have some we would love to see them used!
Once you have made your creation just go ahead and upload it into the linky on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog! We can’t wait to see what you make!
As always, we’re offering a chance to win a $50 Gift Voucher to Simon Says Stamp! All YOU need to do is join in with the challenge!

Love the masking technique! Very inspiring sample cards here! Thanks for sharing and congrats to the lucky winners! :)
Making is a neat technique. I just finished making a card using masking by placing cut out images over the images in the layer and using Tim Holtz Distress Ink to ink around the images. Have a Bee-utiful evng!
