 I want to tell you what technique I will be showcasing for the May blog hop ..... drum roll...pppprumppadumadum....faux layers and masking sections.  sorry don't know the fancy names that have been given to this technique but I'm sure you will know once you see my cards. 
Space Fun is just what it's name says.....FUN!  so let's jump right into outer space to see my cards. 

This card is full of fun starting with the faux masking layers then with the punched out corners and that saying.....is just pure fun!  Now my next card is again doing that same faux masking layer but this time I punched out where the saying goes then taped it to the inside of the card.  I hope you can see all the water spots in the photos because I just love them.
Please continue on to Janine's  blog to see what she has in store for you.  Don't forget to leave comments along your journey for a chance to be included in our drawing.  see you tomorrow.

    This technique you showed is one reason I love these blog hops. Being a fairly new card maker I learn SO many things-and I see great projects!

    Fun cards - like the punched out corner. Sorry but probably can't see all the detail of your water spots in your rather small photos.

    The technique you used works particularly well here. The punched corners and the water spots are great accents!
