Masking is the way to create a dimensional or layered look. This technique will help your stamped art look like your images are in front ir behind each other. You'll do this by creating a "mask". Start by stamping the desired image. Now stamp it again on scrap paper (i love using Post It notes with their sticky bit). Cut out the scrap, this will be the mask. Now just place this mask over the original image to protect it from being stamped on and stamp your second impression. When you remove the mask it will reveal that the second image looks like it is behind the first. Neat-o!
My personal reccomendation is to select stamps that are fairly easy to cut out and not too intricate for this particular technique.
