Masking and Ink Blending

Who likes to mask?  I don't mean for Halloween (I mean, doesn't everyone like to mask at Halloween?).  Who likes to use a mask to highlight a portion of a card?  Like this:

I laid masking paper on the edges of my Thick Basic White card base, leaving the center portion uncovered.  Using Blending Brushes, I gently added/blended Lemon Lolly, Daffodil Delight and Peach Pie inks over the exposed area.  When I removed the masking paper, I was left with a beautiful rectangle of color!

I highlighted it further with frame of white (cut with the now-retired Deckled Rectangle dies) popped up on Adhesive Strips.

And I finished with some pretty flowers, stamped with the Extraordinary Flora set, colored with Stampin' Blends, and cut with the Extraordinary Flora dies.

Such a lovely way to bring attention to your greeting!
