I created this birthday card and posted it to one of my Yahoo groups, and a few of the group asked if I would explain how I did it. Well, I decided to post it here. It is called the painted pony and it is really simple to do. I requires making a reverse mask.
To begin, stamp the pony onto your card stock and then onto a piece of scrap paper the size of the card stock of the original stamping. Using an exacto knife, cut around the inside of the pony's body where you want to stamp, this is your reverse mask. Next, line up the mask with the fisrt stamping and decide what other stamps will work inside the mask to create the "painted" effect.
I also masked the legs and hooves and stamped the grass, sand and yucca plants using markers on the stamps.
The pony stamp came from B & J Art Stamps of which I have a link here on this site.
