Cardmaking Technique: How to create a scene using masking

Masking is the perfect card making technique for creating scenes and it works fantastically with the Coming Home stamp set from the 2020 August-December Mini Catalog from Stampin' Up! I love the way this card has a neighborhood of black and white houses with the focal point colored. It would be a great housewarming card! So on y go! Let's get stamping.

This video will walk you step-by-step through the process of masking. I also share tips for coloring with Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.
