Masking 101 + another sneak peek + more!
It’s Wednesday, and that means we have a video or step-by-step project to share with you. This week I’ll be showing you some simple masking techniques and tips on how to use clear alphabets with a SNEAK PEEK from our upcoming catalog of our NEW Sparkle Clearâ„¢ Little Letters!
Sparkle Clear Little Letters have 5 fonts in each set, plus fun images — including birds — 12 gemstones and a unique frame!
One thing I have to share before you watch the video — I’m told that I have a very unique accent. I grew up in northeast Ohio and moved to Texas 12 years ago — my friends and family in Ohio all claim that I have a Texas twang, while my Texas friends call me “The Yank”. Can’t win, ha ha!

What an awesome video, love those stamps, the stamps are small enough that you can really specialize cards. Looking for a local dearler, love your stamps

I just loved the video. It is a great refresher course even for “old” timers like me. I always forget about masking my projects, and I have completely fallen in love with the owls. I have them on my list of MUST haves.
