Masquerade mask with a bridal touch!


Hi all...a very warm hug :)!!Hope you all are doing great..
I thought of trying something ethnic,stylish and little splashy this time..then something hit my mind,no matter what time of year it is, having a fancy masquerade mask is just so much frick-ing fun..so here goes my theme..:D!
Masquerade masks originate from Italy and date back to the 15th century. At that time masks were used at public gatherings for wedding and other festive occasions. Today we use masquerade masks for parties and Halloween. In this tutorial  I will show you how to create a simple paper masquerade with a desi bridal touch!

Step1:Here , I have added a template which you can print out and cut accordingly.
Step2:I have cut two (from handmade white & red sheets) similar shaped mask differing about 1 cm in size.Then put the mask on the edge of your table and roll it around its corner. It should get a rounder shape!Then embellish it off,for which I used some blings, rhinestones, golden acrylic paint, glitters, ribbons & lace...and yes some golden net from cake wrapping,which i saved in my stash.
Some bling layouts i got recently !

Step3:Yuppie so here you make the mask holder with the newspaper rolled out!!For more info on it you can check out my earlier Christmas card set post,wherein I have given the steps to make.
Stick it to the mask...and you are off to a grand wedding ceremony :)!
