CAS187 Ombre Blocks

Photo Details

Poster: CAKath

I went with the latest Ombre trend for my color blocks. I grabbed my orange scraps folder to compose these panels and then stamped the images in black. Piercing around the edge.

I used a lovely original from Angela, our Featured Stamper:

Right into my favs. I love this. The panels are like a sunrise behind the silhouette. AND the fact that you matched a corresponding envelope is OUTstanding.

Kathy, you are spot on with your choice of the specific colors.....then blend together so well. Love the silhouetted image you stamped over them. A lovely card.

Clever use of all your scraps, and I love that image. I need to get mine out and dust it off. :)
