Using the negative circle mask I used Blending Brushes to add color to the opening while my mask layer and card layer were taped securely to my silicon sheet. You want a very crisp edge to your masked image so be sure the layers will not shift as you add color.
Once your masked area is completed, remove the tape and then stamp your silhouette image where you want it. This is one of the easiest techniques and always so satisfying when completed.

This IS a lovely technique; I should think of it more often! I love the soft colors you blended; they make such a perfect backdrop for that pretty silhouette.

Gosh this is gorgeous!! I love to see a beautifully colored reverse mask like yours. It's perfect for the ***** willow stems. Now I may need to buy that stamp.
