I spy... Edna! It's all about 'Lost and Found' for our new challenge over at The Sisterhood of Snarky Stampers. We're revisiting 'lost' techniques, hunting-out older or unused stamps, and combing through our stash for a crafting trip down memory lane.
My 'Lost' is a technique that I used a few times and always loved. It's a super-easy technique which involves masking-off the edges of the card with torn paper and inking in the space between. Like the Meerkat says: 'Simples!'
I stamped the VLVstamps image of the woman and carefully masked her with a post it note. Then I used my new Distress Oxides to create layers of ink and to over stamp a variety of images. This was my first proper attempt at using Oxides, and I'm still not feeling very confident with them. I bought a few additional colours after making this card so I can play and experiment a bit more.
As always, my sistahs have had a hoot with this challenge. We hope you'll like it too, and that you'll come and play along!

This card is all sorts of brilliant!! OMG! That background! That sentiment! That image! I NEED THOSE!
Love the color and the image. Great job with masking her off and then doing the color. I have resisted getting the new oxides.

A great technique - sometimes we are so busy trying to perfect the new ones we forget to step back to the ones we have already accomplished!
