OMBRE COLOURWASH

I've been having a play around with some new colour techniques - this one is a colour ombre type wash using the colours suggested by Fab Friday 136  for their challenge this week





I loved these colours together - Grey is not a colour I often use or turn to so it was nice to include it in my card this week.  I used some post it notes to blank off the stripes and used an ink dauber to add the ink.  I haven't used Stampin Up's Beautiful You set in a while and thought she would go nice on these colours just simply stamped in Black and a touch of Wink of Stella on her dress.




I layered it simply onto a piece of Bermuda Bay cardstock and added the sentiments also in Bermuda Bay with a touch of Bermuda Bay ribbon.  I have someone in mind for this card - my darling daughter has to face surgery again in the next few weeks - this card will be for her once all the surgery is done.  Finger's crossed for her.

Love the layers of color with the crisp white framing them. The sponging is a nice soft look for the bolder image! Thanks for sharing at Fab Friday!
