Hello and welcome to this month's Ink it! Stamp it! blog hop, this month we are all sharing a technique with you. I've used one of my favourite stamp sets today to show you how to create a background the  with the masking technique , something I use on a semi-regular basis as it can can create a different effect using the same stamps when you layer the images. I t's with mixed emotions  as Falling Flowers will be retiring on May 31st. For this technique, you need to cut a plain/scrap piece of paper in the same size as your stamped image - in this case I cheated a little my using coordinating framelits to do this, a great time saver especially if fussy cutting isn't your thing. Start by stamping an image in on cardstock, then place your mask over the image and stamp again, making sure you stamp on both blank cardstock and on the mask, keep repeating the process until your background is complete.

I had super fun creating this card today, there are 8 layers/elements to this card, it was.... layers of fun... sorry for the pun! I'm also playing along with the theme from the Global Design Project ,  my project is a montage of greens, made easy with the beautiful Share What You Love Designer Series Paper. I started with 2 coordinating designs of the DSP, and created the central element by cutting with the Rectangle Stitched Framelits - so easy to mix and match the papers by using the framelits. Next I layered on a Mossy Meadow card base, then layered in a strip of Pear Pizzazz  Shimmer Ribbon (of course there is always a little touch of bling).    To raise the floral paper, I cut a piece of Mossy Meadow cardstock using the same size framelit as I did for the DSP, then run it through the Big Shot with the Corrugated Embossing folder, it fits perfectly in the gap, just a little shorter at the top and bottom, them I adhered the floral DSP....
