I'm starting April with a card for three challenges - MFT Stamps Sketch Challenge, the challenge to use ombré at Addicted to CAS and the Anything Goes Wednesday challenge at Simon Says Stamp - this last one wasn't too hard to mix in with the other two. ;) Here's the inspiration sketch:
And here's where it led me:
The horizontal strip seemed perfect for a little bit of ombré ink blending. And since I'd been waiting for an opportunity to use this fun Beach Buds set, I went with ocean colours. The sea critters are coloured with Copics - a little blue added to the greys of the shark, and a little grey added to the green and mauve of the shellfish. Anything stamped is heat embossed of course... it's what I do. :D
Supplies: Neenah white & Stampin' Up bashful blue cardstock, MFT Beach Buds stamps & dies, Versafine onyx black & broken china, salty ocean & mermaid lagoon distress inks, Wow clear embossing powder, Copic markers, Winnie & Walter Katharine cutaway die, foam tape
