#SimpleStamping Saturday Featuring Artistic Mix Decorative Masks. Welcome to a recorded #SimpleStamping Saturday project. I am beginning to sort out my web posts again!

#SimpleStamping Version

#SimpleStamping Saturday Featuring Artistic Mix Decorative Masks - OldStablesCrafts.co.uk

Today’s projects feature the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks, which are a great addition to your Craft Stash. These new masks have four patterns, plus two Positive/Negative shapes.

I finished the envelope by adding stamped photo corners in Cajun Craze ink.

Further Stepped Up Version

For my final version I repeated the ink blending, but without the ‘negative’ rectangular mask. This time I stamped the sentiment on a separate piece of Very Vanilla card and die cut it with one of the

I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.
