MFT Camp Create

I always love MFT Camp Create--lots of inspiration & prizes! Here is my entry for Day 2: Magnificent Masking. The video showed how to make the perfect horizon--check it out.  For my card, though, I masked an oval area & blended DI lucky clover & cracked pistachio for the grass and blueprint sketch & mermaid lagoon for the sky on linen cardstock. 

Then I stamped Peaceful Wildflower images in Vintage Sepia with the mask in place using my stamp positioner to get darker images. I splattered some white paint & added the oval frame which is stacked 3 high.  I used the same blue inks to stamp the sentiment from the same set & added 3 white sequins.  Gotta get applesauce made today--keep putting it off.  Thankfully we didn't have quite as big a crop of apples as usual.  My Day 3 card is already made & I'll be working on the other challenges. Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. I'm also entering Country View Challenges, CropStop, DRU, SSS Wednesday, Stamping Sensations & Word Art Wednesday.

    Beautiful card! Curious as to where you live. My apples still have at least another month before they are ripe. I'm in California

      I don't know your blog address, so will answer your question here. I'm in Western Oregon & we have a very old Gravenstein apple tree. They ripen in August instead of Fall. Thanks for stopping by my blog!
