One layer cards?

[GardenB]

I'm wanting to make some cards to send to friends in Africa, and would like the cards to travel as easily as possible. I seem to recall seeing something once that showed how to make a one-layer card that looked like it had more than one layer. It was like there were multiple mattes that I think were maybe done using a masking technique??

Does anyone know how this is done? Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks.

Not sure if this is what you are looking for but I have this card saved in My favorites.

I think that it was masked off with post-it notes. But not positive.
Hope this helps.

here is a link to a challenge in the gallery that was for one-layered cards.

most are done with masking--just cover parts and color the others, I think there are directions here under Resources

Some of the cards have directions included on them, too

Here are a couple that were done by darttella (she is an awesome artist).

I think these provide a lot of inspiration, don't you?

Thanks very much for the info, everyone. This is great! I should be able to find lots of ideas from these links.
