Default Masking ?

I want to demonstrate masking at my next stamp camp and need suggestions for a good stamp set to demo it with. Any ideas??

I learned to use the masking technique with the Unfrogettable set. The toadstools and the flowers work great with this technique.

In Full Bloom is a set that I think HAS to be masked to work well.
In this card I layed the three tags side by side, secured with releasable adhesive, before stamping the mix of flowers from In Full Bloom.

I think it looks more natural if you can make it look like the other flowers and leaves are in the background.
Also the set All Natural is easy to show masking - try doing an arrangement of several pears, or even simpler is the flower/leaf combo. Good Luck!

My #1 fave for simple masking that looks great is loads of love.

I think it's also fun to show this technique with a set like Roses in Winter (less "traditional"): http://seitlerstamps.blogspot.com/2006/04/masking.html

The sets I have that have Post-It's living in them are Buds & Blossoms, In Full Bloom and RIW.

Hope that helps! :mrgreen:
