The Stamped blooms (Create a Smile) are colored with Chameleon markers. For the concentric circle background I have used distress in "picket fence"

Hello dear friends!

I wanted to play along Simos Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge where the theme is OMBRE. 

To create the stenciled (Faber Castell - mixed media stencils ) ombre background I used distress inks - squeezed lemonade, mustard seed, wild honey & fired brick. I have used lots of new supplies here - the stampendous zinnia stamp colored with my new Gansai Tambi watercolors & fussy cut. The sentiment is heat embossed on vellum.

A few other cards I made earlier with an ombre effect can be viewed here, here, here & here.

Christmas - Snowflakes

A Merry Christmas to all my crafty friends!

I used the stamp from LET IT SNOW set, colored the image with Chameleon pens & fussy cut her. The snowflake background was done by repeated stamping with Color box Q (misty meadow) chalk ink to get an ombre effect & the sentiment is heat embossed.
