FAUX TORN PAPER - MASKING TECHNIQUE; AN EASY WAY TO STEP UP YOUR CARDS!


 Hi Stampers!

Today I have a fun and easy technique to share with you! It is called Faux Torn Paper. It is a masking technique; it is an easy way to step up your cards for a bit of wow! Today’s card is actually a CASE from the upcoming STAMPIN’UP! 2021-22 ANNUAL CATALOG. The card is found on page 26 of the upcoming annual catalog, and features the ENJOY THE MOMENT stamp set.  (This set will carry over from the current mini catalog to the new annual catalog.) My version of the card uses different ink colors, different sentiment, no embossing, and no twine. 

Let’s take  a look at the card.


INSIDE THE CARD

The sentiment inside the card is from the HAPPIEST OF BIRTHDAYS stamp set found in the current annual catalog. This stamp set is also carrying over to the new annual catalog.
