Hi!
Welcome once again to another CASEing The Catty Sunday Challenge Blog Hop. As I mentioned last week, we have two new catalogues this month to CASE. Last week we looked at the Mini Catalogue, and this week it's the Sale-A-Bration catalogue's turn.
I spotted this beauty near the back of the catalogue, on page 15.
I loved the ombre masking with the floral image stamped over the top. I don't have the stamps or the DSP in the sample, so I had a quick look through my stash to see what would give a similar effect.
I started with the Pale Papaya DSP from the Lovely Linen pack, layering it over some Whisper White card before attaching it to the Pale Papaya card base.
I cut three half-inch strips of Masking Paper and used them around the three edges of the Stitched Rectangle Die cut. A Blending Brush was used to apply the Pale Papaya ink, fading it out towards the top to get that gorgeous ombre effect. That fabulous, huge sunflower was a great choice for stamping over the top, I think!
I reused the Masking Paper on the inside of my card to create a similar effect as on the front. This time I just faded the colour away from the corner.
Our challenge is run through our Facebook group, so you don't need a blog to enter! Just take a photo of your card and add a photo to our group. It's that easy! We'd love to have a tricky time choosing a winner as there are so many entries.
Please continue your way around our Blog Hop for more Sale-A-Bration inspiration. The next hopper is the lovely Sandra Collett, with a super cute card for all the dog lovers.
Bye for now,
Tina
I actually thought you’d coloured with an inked up block, love this idea and the card, Tina.
