 Instructions:

Begin with Making Memories Slice Vinyl & cut image out.  Place new mask on a piece of Grey Wintertime Cardstock. Using Tim Holtz ink with one of the long skinny stamps from the Fancy Pants Delight set, begin on left side of page, stamp from top to bottom re-inking as necessary to, repeat with all colors. Done with Color ink, get out the black & stamp around mask with floral images, make sure you goall the way around the mask for it to look best when finished. Using a paper towel, wipe excess ink from mask working from outside in. Using butterfly wing with VersaMark, press stamp into VersaMark then stamp onto page close to “ear” area, generously sprinkle White Zing embossing powder; repeat with other butterfly wing by opposite “ear”. Working over craft tray, tap off excess embossing powder & return to container. Using embossing gun, work from backside of paper to melt the embossing powder. Let mask cool completely then remove eye area from page. Ink in eyes using Tim Holtz Black Soot with a Tim Holtz distressing tool with a foam pad. Remove mask from cardstock. Decorate the rest of the page as desired, I chose Mardi Grad Beads along with a photo ofmy younger son mounted on Giltter Cardstock.

  2. Love your LO! This was a great tutorial, as usual, Paula. I like the use of the FP stamps. I have them, but haven't used them yet. Maybe I will for this challenge :)
