Masking and no dies allowed.

I made today's card initially for the "Masking" challenge over at Stamp Nation then I realised it was perfect for the "No dies allowed" challenge going on over at CAS-ual Fridays.  I masked the middle panel of my card stock with a strip of post-it tape and stamped the "Simple flowers" from Altenew with Catherine Pooler inks.  I was left with a gap where the inks don't quite meet the mask so I drew a line with a black marker to cover the gaps.  I used one of my favourite sentiment stamps sets from CAS-ual Fridays called "Shenanigans".  The sentiments in this stamp set are so bold and I love how it takes over as the focal point of my card. I stamped the sentiment "let the shenanigans begin" on the inside.


Thanks for looking!

    Beautiful card, love the colors and your focal point. I love it when you can place the sentiment on top to create a simplistic statement.
