Hi Everyone,
VDT Deni with you today, I would love to share with you another project I created using Little Town Life. I made a bookmark using Masking Techniques.
I started by running a bookmark die through my Sizzix Big Shot using some X-Press It Blending Cardstock.
I had a little bit of an idea of the scene I wanted to create so I started by kind of laying out my stamps over the top of the die.
I grabbed some post it notes, just your standard ones as I wasn't sure where I had put my full sticky ones (which is what I normally use). I used some acrylic blocks and Memento Tuxedo Black and stamped all my images out onto the post it notes, making sure I cleaned my stamps off as I went.. I seem to have a habit of bumping things or getting ink on thinks lately haha.
I layed all my masks down on the second bookmark die I had cut out so I could work out exactly what was going where before I started stamping. I then stamped out everything.. remember you need to stamp out the "front" images before the things that will be in the background. So I began by stamping out my candle, the little girl, then the other character, masking each one off after I stamped.

Leaving all the masks in place I used a Mini Ink blending tool and some distress inks and blending some ink around them.
Using a sentiment that was left over from my last project, I flagged the ends using my scissors and adhered it using some Scotch ATG.
Once all my colouring and inking was done I adhered a second bookmark to the back to cover and of the ink that was showing through.

I then used some cotton crochet twine to create a tassel which I tied to the top of my bookmark.
I hope you have enjoyed my post today, if you have any questions feel free to send me a message or contact me via facebook (all links can be found below).
