Creating Kindness Blog Hop ~ Technique
Hi and welcome to Mitosu Crafts UK, thanks for stopping for the Creating Kindness blog hop. The design team and our special Guest Designer Carolina Evans, are sharing all kinds of different techniques to inspire you
One of my favourite technique at the moment is creating an ombre effect with sponge brayers. I teamed this technique with the exclusive early release of the Share What You Love Bundle and this is what I came up with
Products used on this simple card idea can be found on the Gotta Have It All Bundle until the end of May, then will be available individually in June when the 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue goes live
I embossed the Lovely Floral Dynamic TIEF on Very Vanilla card then sponge brayed the new In Color Grapefruit Grove with Rich Razzleberry
I stamped the flower cluster in Grapefruit Grove to add more interest on the background then stamped the topper with a sentiment from Love What You Do set and the flower design from Make A Difference set
I added the Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon and Pearlised Thread (from the Share What You Love Embellishment Kit) on the card with Tear & Tape before adhering the topper on the card. Finishing off with the Share What You Love Artisan Pearls
Check out the video demonstration of how I created this easy card idea with the ombre technique

I also created a stepped-up version with the same ombre background using other products from the Gotta Have It All Bundle
For this card idea, I wanted to showcase the debossed image of the Lovely Floral design. I also used the back of the Velvet Ribbon to have a better contrast against the Rich Razzleberry background
I added a small bit of the Pearlised Doily and did a bit of fussy cutting with the main sentiment. The ‘With Love’ stamp is from Make A Difference set
Finished off with a 4 loop bow using the Tranquil Tide Thread from the Share What You Love Embellishment Kit
