Easy Ombré with Stampin' Blends

September 19, 2018
Charlet Mallett Instagram tip 2a.jpg

Hello! It’s so fun to see my work featured on the Stampin’ Up! Instagram and Facebook pages. It’s a nice perk to being an Artisan Design team member. I was featured this month on SU’s instagram showing how to use your Stampin’ Blends to create an easy ombré look.

“I love the look of ombré sentiments on cards. Create this awesome look quickly & easily using Stampin’ Blends. Choose shades of similar colors and roughly color your cardstock from light to dark. Blend colors together and then die-cut your sentiment. So fun!” I hope this idea inspired you to pull out your Stampin’ Blends and use them in a different way.

This card features the Thank You thinlet die and the Love You To Pieces stamp set and die bundle. A full list of supplies can be found below.

The Stampin’ Blends colors used for this pink Thank You:

Petal Pink light
Petal Pink dark
Flirty Flamingo light
Flirty Flamingo dark
Calypso Coral light
Calypso Coral dark

Another quick tip: Keep the puzzle die cuts in the die, add adhesive and then adhere to the card front before you remove the die. This will keep all the puzzle pieces together and make the assembly so much easier.

Now let’s flip it! Same idea / technique but shown in greens. This card features Thank You Thinlet and the Tropical Chic stamp set and papers.

Which do you prefer, the pink or green version? Are you ready to give it a try? I’d love to see what you make. Tag me it you try it. Happy stamping.

A stencil with a little paste creates a lot of magic. I applied the Fools Gold paste directly on the Soft SeaFoam cardstock with a palette knife. The stamp set is an oldie but goodie: Dainty Delight. Paste: Ranger Ink - Simon Hurley - Astro Paste - Fool’s Gold #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmakersofinstagram #papercrafting #useyourstash
Welcome to our monthly Use Your Stash hop! Our theme is Pastes & Paints. Since many of my pastes were dried up (lesson learned, we should always use these quickly) I pulled out some newer pastes from Ranger. This paste called Astro Paste Shimmer
