Hearts and Stars Decorative Mask

And visions of reindeer danced in their heads:

Accessories: Homemade Holiday Framelits, 2″ circle punch, White Craft Ink, Stampin’ Sponges, Hearts and Stars Decorative Mask, Blendabilities

The Hearts and Stars Decorative Mask is an under-appreciated accessory – it takes just moments to sponge details exactly where you want them – in this case a starry sky behind a big full moon and a sleigh full of toys and Saint Nicholas too!

I created the windows by stamping the house on Whisper White card stock and cutting them out – they’re rectangles, it’s easy – and adhering them to the house with a smidge of Tombo. And yes, smidge is a real measurement.

My most faithful customers got a little something extra this month:

I’ve had the Decorative Masks (Hearts & Stars #133777, Dots and Stripes #133775) for a while and I’ve had this project in mind even longer! It was very easy to do and I’m pleased with the results.

The masks are quite inexpensive – $2.95! – and they’re very easy to work with. I used blue painter’s tape to hold them in place, and daubers to apply the ink straight from the ink pad. My bags were bigger than the masks and I found it very easy to line up the images in order to work across the full width of the bags.

I stamped the initials with the Larger Than Life Letters and Numbers (#135382) and layered them onto a coordinating Starburst Framelit (#1329670). A little bit of coordinating ribbon finished it off.
