Painty Stampotique Card

I was in a painty mood again today and this card is the result!  I must say, I'm having great fun scraping paint around with an old credit card, I can't get enough of it! :)  The richness of Claudine Hellmuth's paints is a big help too, it has to be said :)

I used an old favourite technique of mine, that I call the painted mask technique.  I stamped the figure furst, then painted it with white paint, then stamped over it, off-setting the stamp a little to get that cool "printing error" look!

While I'm here, don't forget, there's still time to enter this weeks Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge, and be in for a chance of a $50 spending spree!

Scrumptious - he should come with an empty caption balloon as there's a lot going on in that mind of his...

This is a wonderfully textured card and the offset stamping really suits this stamp.

Love this. The painty background is lovely and I really like your masking technique.
