GameObject/Sprite Masking - How to?

Please help! I've been stuck on this for a while. Can't seem to get it.
There are two ways that I could think of doing this, and one is considerably easier than the other.
You could create a second camera that doesn't render the UI elements, and only sees the game objects. Make this camera render its view to a RenderTexture. Then, in your Canvas, create a "Raw Image", and assign it to show the RenderTexture. Since this image is a UI element, it should work normally with UI masks.
The second way requires you to create a custom shader, and that's a lot of work and no fun at all :P
