For today’s blog hop I’ve created a simple pastel card using the newly released Ombré Stripes Stencil.

I used a masking technique to cover half of the card and I started by applying Blush, Hazelnut and Mountain Mist Crisp Dye Inks with a sponge dauber over the stencil. Then I repeated the sponging at the other side to create a chevron pattern.

thank you


For the sentiment I used Fine Alphabet Die Set and white cardstock covered with Gold String Washi Tape. I die cut the sentiment three times and stacked the letters together for a dimension.

thank you



That’s it for me, your next stop on the hop is Svitlana Shayevich.

Here is the full line up for the blog hop today.
