Last week I shared lots of ideas with Free Skate stamps and coordinating dies. Today, I’m sharing Basic Masks and Detailed Skate Dies a mix of background technique and filagree dies! What’s not to love in that combination?

Basic Masks and Detailed Skate Dies

Watch the video and see how easy this fun background technique is, plus it works great to reflect the detailed filigree in the dies. All you need is some ink and a sponge. You can use any colours but I love to coordinate the card and ink together for a really great blended look. Although these are called Masks the technique can also be called using a stencil.

Which colour combo do you prefer? I love them both, but I think the blue is more traditionally a cold colour, which makes it feel more wintery! You could also make this in a red and green combination to make it extra Christmasy! Here I added actual Whisper White Twine to the holes to make laces along with a background colour for the skate of Gorgeous Grape!

Below I’ve shared the basic products you need for the cards I’ve used in these cards. I hope you take this opportunity to purchase the Detailed Skate dies, stamps (with a 10% off bundle) and the Basic Masks, they are a great addition to your craft stash.
