Hello creative friends! My card today is for two challenges. Ordinarily I don't enter one card in multiple challenges, but today's card just turned out that way. First challenge is Papertrey Ink Make it Monday #188 - Ombre Backgrounds. The second challenge is for Simon Says Wednesday Challenge - We're Seeing Stars.
My card.....
I used the ombre concept in a different way, but I think it qualifies for the PTI challenge.
I made my own stencil from a PTI cover plate using Grafix Matte Stencil Film and my Big Shot. This film works really well, and will turn any die cut into a stencil.
Next I cut star shapes from the ombre stamping.
Easy.
Supplies:
Paper: Neenah
Ink: Versafine, PTI, HA and Mama Elephant
Stamps: PTI
Dies/Punches: Nestabilities and Simon Says
Other: Grafix Matte Stencil Film
I just had to share a little color inspiration from my back yard. Natures red carpet to go with my chairs.
Have a great day!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to put a twist on that technique, Nancy! Love how your stars turned out - beautiful card! And wow - those leaves look amazing! We're already freezing our butts off here in Minnesota! Way too cold, way too early! Enjoy our autumn weather while it lasts. Hugs to you! ♥
