Optical Illusion | Kreative Kymona

Did I say how much I’m enjoying this online card class. Well here it is, I’m having an awesome time in this CAS 3 Card Class. I’ve learned so much so far and we have weeks to go. Enough about me, today’s card focused on a different type of optical illusion, Masking!! Jennifer McGuire taught us how to use our die cuts to mask of areas and apply ink. I had fun, so much so, that I ink the side of my card stock with the distress ink that I had to ink the sides of the cards too. I love how it came out, despite my mistake.

Please let me know what you think about my masked card.

Yesterday we learned a new technique called optical illusion. Laura Bassen taught us how to do stamp layering which gives off an optical illusion. We were taught to start with a subtle background stamp, then bold hues and finish the card with a crisp greeting which will make the whole thing pop.

So, I tried to create a card very similar to that taught in class. I’m not sure if my card gives the same feel. I would love it to pop a little bit more. What do you think?
