Fusion has another great new combo for us this week with an ombre twist - cool! I couldn't resist using this challenge to create a fun card for my dear friend Nancy's birthday (that's North Carolina Nancy, around here, lol!) Her birthday was Wednesday, and I hope this card got there in time, because my thoughts were all on her! She told me she likes purples and yellows, but more subtle, and what better way to go for an ombre challenge? I used my sponge brayer to lay on subtle passes of Highland Heather, letting it get lighter towards the top of the card. I couldn't help using my Time for Tags set again (I need to get off that birthday cake, lol) but I layered THAT over a Daffodil stitched oval to really set it off - good thing I still had a bit of this Daffodil Sale-A-Bration ribbon left, too - we are COORDINATED today! I finished with some iridescent sprinkles leftover from that old Donut Paper Pumpkin - Sprinkled With Love from May 2017. I never throw away an embellishment - see how perfect it is?? Hope you had a happy, happy birthday, Nancy! I love and miss you! Time for Tags Stamp Set; Whisper White & Daffodil Delight CS; Highland Heather & Memento Tuxedo Black Inks; Basic Black Marker; Highland Heather & So Saffron Blends; Timeless Label Punch; Stitched Shapes Dies; Daffodil Delight Organdy Ribbon; Iridescent Dots; #FusionOmbre.
