Geometric fun with an Ombre’ effect; video tutorial too!

I've been sharing ideas & techniques featuring the Plenty of Patterns masks from a recent FB Live video. 

Today it's an Ombre' effect created with a grid mask, 4 colors of ink and Blending Brushes.

The colors I used are from top to bottom: Pale Papaya, Calypso Coral, Polished Pink and Melon Mambo. I used our Blending Brushes to achieve this smooth blended look.  See them here. I love them; they're so worth investing in.  And the nice thing is that the ink can be rinsed out to use them in any color next time.

I used the grid mask in the set of 4 seen below & here.

I'm sure you noticed the hexagonal greeting die-cuts.  This is part of a new die-cut set called Beautiful Shapes dies coming out in the upcoming 2022 Jan-June catalog.  And the Adhesive-Backed Hexagons coordinate wonderfully.  These embellishments come in a package of three colors – Black, Blushing Bride & Just Jade.

I added a zig-zag of ribbon behind my greeting image; see my easy method in the video.

  • Fabulous Team Swaps!

    We held our monthly Flowerbug's Team Meeting on Saturday and I wanted to share the card swaps they made. 

    First is a beautiful card made by Candy who featured the new Loveliest Tree stamp set seen here.  

    May Candy Loveliest Tree Save

    Her colors include Mossy Meadow, Blackberry Bliss and Cajun Craze.  Gorgeous!!  The embossing folder is the Eyelet 3D folder seen here.

    LOVELIEST TREE CLING STAMP SET (ENGLISH) Save

    There are dies that go with it too. I believe she colored the tree in with Blends markers. She also used Wink of Stella on the tree image – it shows up very well in person but not as much in person.

    Next is a neat fun fold card made by Jacki. She chose the Trusty Tools stamp set & dies.  

    May Jacki Trusty Tools Save

    See the stamp set here and the dies here.  They were a bundle in the Spring catalog and carried over into the new Annual Catalog. 

    The designer paper is the Countryside Inn DSP seen here that carried over and is now online.
