Today I’m sharing a soft, artistic card that highlights a clever way to let a sentiment shine—the masked sentiment technique. Paired with the gorgeous Petals of Beauty florals from the Brushed With Beauty Suite Collection, this simple approach creates a clean focal point while still giving you room to play with color and texture.

- I also enlisted the stamping off technique to build a layered collage of blooms that feels light, airy, and full of movement.
- It’s an easy way to add depth without overwhelming the design, and it works beautifully with this suite’s watercolor‑style images.
✂️How’d She DO That? Petals of Beauty card
- Stamps/Bundles: Petals of Beauty, Words of Beauty Bundle – includes dies
- Paper:
- Highland Heather (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ card base)
- Coral Calypso (4″ x 5-1/4″)
- Basic White (3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″, scrap for sentiment die cut)
- scrap for masking (3/4″ x 4″)
- Ink: Gorgeous Grape (sentiment), Calypso Coral, Highland Heather, Old Olive
- Other: Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine, Pearls of Beauty, Stampin’ Seal, Stampin’ Dimensionals

💡DOstamping Tips: Masked Sentiment Technique
- On white panel, temporarily adhere ¾” x 4” strip over “sentiment area”.
- Stamp over & under masked area with the following stamps/inks:
- solid flower = Calypso Coral stamped off
- detail flower = Calypso Coral
- solid flower cluster = Highland Heather stamped off
- detail flower cluster = Highland Heather
- leaf = Old Olive
- NOTE: I cut my leaf stamp in “half” – one stamp has one leaf, which I used for this card, and the other one has two leaves – this gives you more versatility with your stamps. Plus, you can always mount them together for the full complete image
- I love how this technique lets the sentiment take center stage while still giving you a beautiful burst of color around it.
The Petals of Beauty makes it effortless to create soft, artistic layers—perfect for friendship cards, birthdays, or any moment that calls for a little handmade kindness. Give the masked sentiment technique a try the next time you’re stamping; it’s simple, striking, and so much fun to play with.
