One Layer Card with Masking and Stamping Techniques

DIY Handmade Card using Copic Markers_1

Hi, crafty friends. Today I’m up on the Create A Smile blog with a fun and colorful one layer card as their guest designer this month. Here is what I came up with:

DIY Handmade Card using Copic Markers_5

I couldn’t resist myself creating a whimsical scene by combining two stamp sets from Create A SmileBotanical Love and Doctor’s Helpers. Can you guess the story I made up? There is one hedgehog living in a beautiful wonderland. He has been so productive planting all kinds of flowers for the past few years, and he finally picked his favorite flower to bring smiles to someone he loves. Does it make a sense to you? *wink*

I really love creating my own scene to tell a story on my card. It’s all about thinking outside the box and being creative.

4 Tips on Building Your Own Creative Scene

  1. Mix and match the images from different stamp sets.
  2. Look at the images from many different angles.
  3. Use a partial image of your stamp.
  4. Try not to use a stamp as originally designed.

If you have any tips to use the stamps in an innovative/creative way, feel free to share with me in the comment below. I would love to hear from you.

Here is a video showing you how I created my card. You can watch it here or in HD on YouTube.

How-to : One Layer Card using Masking, Stamping and Copic Coloring

  1. Stamp the images from the Botanical Love and Doctor’s Helpers from with Hero Arts black ink.
  2. Mask off the images along the way to create a dimension between them. (I stamped the images on some post-it notes and cut them out with scissors to create masks.)
  3. Color the images with Copic markers. (I took the color scheme from this image on Pinterest.)
  4. Add some interest on the images using Gelly Roll white pen and Glossy Accents.
  5. Add tiny dots on the white spaces with grey marker.
  6. Finish off the card with clear droplets from Pretty Pink Posh to represent the dewdrops.

    Hi there, There’s no doubt that your site could be having internet
    browser compatibility problems. When I take a look at your web
    site in Safari, it looks fine however when opening
    in Internet Explorer, it’s got some overlapping issues.
    I just wanted to provide you with a quick heads up!
    Other than that, great blog!

    Can I simply say what a comfort to uncover an individual
    who genuinely understands what they are talking about online.
    You certainly realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important.
    A lot more people really need to look at this and understand this side of the
    story. I can’t believe you’re not more popular given that you surely have the gift.

    What i do not realize is in truth how you’re not actually much
    more neatly-favored than you might be right now.
    You’re very intelligent. You know therefore considerably when it comes to this matter,
    made me personally consider it from so many various angles.
    Its like women and men don’t seem to be involved except it’s one
    thing to do with Girl gaga! Your own stuffs great.
    Always deal with it up!

    Heya this is kinda of off topic but I was wanting to know
    if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if you have to manually code with HTML.

    I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
