Ombre, featuring Hero Arts

01/13/2016

Time for a NEW Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Hey everyone! Welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Something NEW challenge last week and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is Ombre. Remember you can enter up to 5 times! 🙂 We are showcasing Hero Arts Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

I used a bunch of different Hero Arts items on my card this week, and of course snuck some Distress Inks in as well!

Hero Arts Ombre Ink Pad, Pink to RedHero Arts Stamp And Cuts HAPPY Coordinating SetSimon Says Stamp with Hero Arts Clear Stamps CHALKBOARD BIRTHDAY

I cut one of the new Stitched 4bar Rectangles from Lawn Fawn, and ink blended the background into an Ombre of Festive Berries, Worn Lipstick and Spun Sugar. I then took a bunch of the sprinkles from the Hero Arts Happy Stamp & Cuts set and stamped them in a confetti way with the Hero Arts Pink to Red Ombre Ink Pad. The “Happy Birthday” banner was from the Hero Arts Chalkboard Birthday stamp set and was stamped in the same Ombre ink pad. I die cut the “happy” in black from the Hero Arts Happy Stamp & Cuts set. I matted the background using the Lawn Fawn Scalloped Rectangle Die and put it all on a kraft notecard.
