Did you have a great weekend. We did here! We didn't get the much needed rain but it did cool off a bit. Thursday was our wedding anniversary. We really didn't do anything but Friday my mom watched the kids and we went to the Fraze, an outdoor concert area, and we saw Ambrosia. Remember for those of you that were around in the 70's the pop music- How much I feel, Your the only woman and Your the Biggest part of me! I just loved roller skating to them! Well we went out to eat and then went to the concert. It was so much fun! Ambrosia was awesome! Loved it. Then on Saturday and Sunday we just hung out at home and relaxed and played with the kids!
Last week I was up over at Kite Tails Designs. I had a tutorial on misting and masking.
Have you every tried making a mask using your Silhouette? Well, it is really fun and very easy! For my layout I used the Kite Tails Luck O' collection and I wanted a mask that had a sort of Celtic feel. I found a Celtic Knot design and cut that out to a 12x12 size. Here is a close up.

I haven't tried making my own mask yet but I do believe you have inspired me to do so!!
The masking looks awesome, Mary Pat! It works to carry your eye through the layout so nicely. Maybe you could give me some misting lessons. I am pretty clueless when it comes to this technique. :)
Very pretty! This has been on my mind to do for months now...you've given me the needed push to try it for myself. I love the celtic knot!
Great layout! That green misted background is really nice. I don't have a cameo so can't do a full 12x12 but I have done this misting over with doilies I've cut on the Silhouette. It's a great way to add some layering to the background. :)
That is great! :) I "accidently" learned about making masks ... I was trying to mist my die cut, but the paper underneath ended up looking a lot better! LOL
Looks awesome!!!
Love that you made your own mask, so cool! Happy belated anniversary!!

Beautiful layout! I like using masks too although I'm no pro :D sometimes I just make a huge mess out of things, lol
Your masked turned out great, as did your layout! I make mask all the time with mine. I use modeling paste through them.
Wow, your mask is amazing! Awesome layout.
Brilliant!
Love it-what a fun layout!!
I have several cut files set aside just for masking and have yet to cut them. Gotta take some scrap time off for scrap prep work...cutting files, and sorting files into folders. Great idea and thanks for sharing.
Super page - I am loving inks and masking at the moment too :)
