    Me too! :)

    Great challenge Dalis...thank you!

    I used both of the masks and used multi layers of masking too (it's soo much easier with CA2!.....one mask layer had an effect added which is something I haven't done before . :)

    Here is my layout. I used both masks (thanks Mirjam, love those!), the gesso one as is because I love it's texture and the harlequin one as a mask for paper. Dalis, the videos are great, I want more :)

    I do agree with Christa & Elina that the videos are awesome. I didn't realise I had placed so much restrictions on masking that I missed out on all the fun !!!!

    Great masks..thank you Mirjam. :) I don't use Photohsop but found the tutorials interesting with a couple of things I haven't tried before with masks...my crafting programme is CraftArtist 2 and working with masks is a whole lot easier than with PS!! ;)

    I was gonna say the same thing.....
    I discovered how to use them a while ago, but then I lost the taste for them, as I didnt thiunk it quiet fit my style or what I want my pages to be....but one of my CTs templates has a mask this week and I did have a go...so this comes into a perfectly fitting time..!!!!
    will make a page :)
    so
    yes
    count me in.

    and once again:
    I honestly think we are blessed with Craft Artist!!!!!!

    Hi all!! I'm Susan and I am very new to the Lily Pad and I think I'm interested in doing this, but I'm not exactly sure how it goes. I've digitally scrapped since 2005 and am a member of DST as Pachimac. I scrap in a clean and simple graphic style (ie Cathy Z. with a bit more layering and element piles), but I would love to learn how to do these masking and blending techniques and open up my talent box!

    Now to figure out what to do...off to watch the videos.

    Be gentle. I'm very new to masking and digital art.

    OK - I finished!! Adding in the link and picture:
