CCC#19 - Extreme Masking

It is back to my normal routine today after spending a very fun week with my daughter, Lynne, and granddaughter, Jillian.  Even our dog misses them today!  United Airlines is in the process of merging the company with Continental and every flight they were booked on either got changed or cancelled so it took them an extended time to arrive and a much longer time to get back to Santa Barbara. 

Today, I started working on my delayed projects and the first was the extreme masking technique from the Compendium of Curiosities challenge posted by Linda at Studio L3.  I used Scrolls Work stamps to create my masks and add the additional stamped images.  I wasn't paying attention when I replaced my Xyron cartridge and wondered why the protective paper wasn't lifting from the card . . . wrong cartridge so I laminated my project.

Carolyn, I'm so glad you had such a good time with your daughter and granddaughter!

This has to be one of my favorite Halloween cards of all time! Those Scrolls Work stamps are just fabulous, and your masking could not possibly be more perfect. It's so sweet!

I think it's great that you laminated this-- it's most definitely a keeper!
