Hi there crafty friends,
I'm just posting a quick entry into Tim Holtz Tattered Florals Challenge. My card is a one layer CAS card but I have layered the inks!!!. I've masked with some tattered floral die cuts, cut out of Eclipse masking roll. Loads of Distress inks and not much else!
I hope you like it!!
Here you can see some of the masking process although I have to admit I masked and inked and stamped and masked and inked many times to get this multicoloured effect. There is a white (un inked ) band around some of the petals but I loved the effect so it didn't worry me.
I'm still working my way down my very long list of lovely comments from my last two posts, I apologise if I haven't got to you yet , it does take me a very long time. My poor old computer is fading fast and I cannot get my head around blogsy yet!
So thank you for dropping by, I will see you soon, hugs Gay x

Hi Gay, colours and masking are great, so pretty. Dee x
This is so lovely and i think the think edge of white around some of the petals emphasizes them beautifully.
I can't believe that is only one layer! Great card.
Hi Gay, It's that white un inked edge that makes this card so amazing!!! the top flower looks like it's raised up...so clever:0) Well worth all the masking and inking :0)

Wow, Wow, Wow! I never thought of masking. It is a beautiful inking job. Wow!

You have inspired me to try this Gay. I may be a while before I reach your level of expertise though - absolutely stunning work. Should be on a wall!
Hi Gay you have inspired me to try this though it may be a while until I reach you level of expertise. Stunning work. It should be framed on a wall.
This is so pretty and I very inspired to try something similar. All that colour, shape, text and pattern. It is gorgeous.

Gorgeous!
Stunning card Gay and masking at it's best imo! Fabulous inspiration and I would never have thought of doing this. I too love the white edging as it creates definition for each flower. I shall have to give this a try.
