Today's card is using the same set of Papertrey stamps. While I had the stamps all centered just the way I liked them, I thought it would be good to make another card. On this card I used an ecru card stock and Stampin Up Baja Breeze ink. When I stamped the birds into the open windows, the stamps cling just a little to the card stock so I tip the upper edge of the acrylic block up to lift it off.
Well, I must have had a little ink on the very edge of the acrylic block so I noticed there were little hints of the ink just above the "Thinking of You" sentiment. OK.........now what do you do!?!? I had taken the Michelle Zindorf class last summer and we did masking with post it notes. So I decided to give it a try. I masked off the narrow area above the sentiment and sponged on ink and then repeated it below the sentiment. It worked! And I like it.
So how do you "cover up" little boo boos on your cards? I'd love to hear your ideas!

What a pretty, pretty card, Vicki - and such a great idea for covering up the boo-boo!
First I want to tell you what a BEAUTIFUL card this is! Thank you for giving directions in an earlier post...I saved them! Your idea for covering a smudge is a life saver! If I smudge, I try to put an embellishment over it, but when it's close to the saying, I'm stumped!!! NOT ANYMORE...I will remember this! THANKS!
Interesting post, Vicki! I am not sure how I would have corrected a mistake like this. However, you did a fabulous job!
