Lori- great challenge, thanks! Used my aqua painter and broad paintbrush on an embossed pumpkin panel for my ombre effect. Re purposed a Fall panel for fun. Here's Fall Colors

I have not done much ombre so this challenge was a little challenging for me. I decided to spray my ombre with a shimmer spray, which it turned out was not the best idea. I think it was because I was working on Bristol. It buckled so badly I wasn't sure I was ever going to get it flat again! But with the help of endless little clothespins and a mini brayer I managed to get it on the card. Happy Ombre by casep - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers
