Shadows And Shades

With an "Ombre" Challenge at Heart 2 Heart

What's an "ombre"? It's when colors or tones that shade into each other —

used especially of fabrics in which the color is graduated from light to dark.

For this technique I used the puddle pad technique with re-inkers to 

get my colors to shade into each other.

I was inspired today by Aaron Brown where she used the new Rediscover 

download from CTMH for August to make a notepad cover. I wanted to give it a try.

When you print these out the colors may vary depending on your printer. For

my printer I used Buttercup, Juniper, and Ruby for my notepad cover.

Inside the cover I attached the note papers(10 sheets) to the cover with a 

paper clip. That way refilling when the paper is gone is easy

For this cover I used Twilight and Buttercup

Inside this cover, the note paper(10 sheets) is attached with a spiral clip.

Puddle Pad technique to get the "ombre" look: Fold two sheets of baby wipes 

into a square. Place the baby wipe pad on a block and ink with re-inker. 

I used buttercup and twilight.The yellow and blue made green in the middle.

 The Ruby and Buttercup re-inkers madeorange in the middle. 

Get your "ombre" on and share at Heart 2 Heart.
