Ombre Blending with Decorative Masks; an easy technique!

August 17, 2021
If you struggle to get a smooth blend I have a few suggestions for you. We made this striking card at a class this weekend. Everyone loved it and they all turned out fabulous!

Save

Details:
- The colors here are Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Cherry Cobbler; with a bit of gold glitz thrown in.
- The leaves are die-cut from the Intricate Leaves dies seen here.
- The greeting is from the Thinking, Thanks & Peace stamp set in the Holiday catalog. I love this greeting! See it here.
Here are some tips & suggestions for perfect Ombre' blending:
- Use out Blending Brushes; they really do make a smooth blend easier.
- Choose colors that are similar in hue. For instance blues and greens, or yellows to reds.
- Blend over a Decorative Mask – see them all here. The patterned stencils/masks seem to break up any inconsistencies in your blending.
- Here I added color onto Crumb Cake card stock; that also helps and would be a a good color to practice on.
- I start out with the lightest color and work my way downward; in this case at an angle.
- I leave a tiny space between colors and make sure to blend/connect them by going into the previous color just a bit before moving.
