T he Ombre effect is so easy to achieve with the Blendabilities Markers.
Project Recipe
Stamp the background with the swoosh stamp from the Work of Art onto the Whisper White 3 3/4" x 5 cardstock. Stamp in the center first then stamp on both sides without reinking.
Using Memento Tuxedo black in stamp the cake from the Life's Adventures on the completed background and on a scrap of whisper white. Color the scrap with the Coastal Cabana Blendabilities markers. Start with a small strip at the bottom with the Dark Cabana, then use the Medium Cabana blending into the Dark, next use the Light Cabana. It gives a nice blended dark to light effect. I added a Cherry Cobbler firecracker on the top for a bit of fun. Now comes the bad part, fussy cut the cake and pop it up with dimensionals on top of the image that you already stamped.
Using the Gold Dazzle marker add sparkle to the firecracker. Stamp the Party, Party, Party greeting across the bottom.
