Masking card

Hello! Happy Chinese New Year(February 18-23 ). 

May the New Year bring many good things and rich blessings to you and all those you love!

Today I have two cards using masking technique.

新年快樂~祝大家身體健康、心想事成、好運連連，
在此分享兩張運用masking技法的卡片。

                                                   First card:

I started by stamping a flower image with white ink on kraft. To give this flower a bit of shadow, I stamped the second layer with pink and red ink, and also added some colours by using watercolour pancils.

Next, I masked the first flower, stamped second flower.

Then, I added some leaves and fruits.

這張卡片上色的靈感來自中國水墨的牡丹，

通常畫牡丹都會先上白粉，

所以我也先上一層白色印泥當底，

然後再用粉紅、桃紅二次上色，大概是versamagic的印台比較不適用這樣用？

所以還是要利用色鉛筆補充細節。

花朵和葉子來自Avery Elle,字章則是Mama Elephant,很漂亮又很實用的兩款設計。

                                                Second card:

I think a little mouse sitting on a diamond is very fun and a symbol of fortunate, because in Chinese's culture, house shrew (Suncus murinus) may bring big fortunate and money for people. xx

I started by stamping a diamond image, masked it, and stamped a mouse above.

After colouring them with copic maker, I covered them with Glossy Accents. 

Once they dried, I used an ink blending tool to apply sun rays background with Distress Ink.

這張錢鼠帶財的設計，用了兩種masking技法，
鑽石和老鼠是用普通的masking，直接剪一張紙覆蓋在鑽石上，再蓋上老鼠。
等到上完色後，再利用Glossy Accents塗滿圖案，
待乾掉之後，再用Distress Ink上光線。
有一種恭喜中獎，閃閃發光的感覺~

Thank you for standing by.
