Julie's Creative Stamping: Ombre Technique Series - Card 3

One of my favorite stamp set is "A Little Lace" by Stampin Up®. The images are so dainty and the cards come out beautiful. So of course I had to use this set in my ombre technique series. This time I used the purples and I'm in love. I hope you enjoy this card as much as I do! Click on the link below to view the video I did making this card and 2 others in the Ombre Technique Series.

Again in the video I used White Craft foam that I bought at a local craft store but since then Stampin Up® has developed Foam Adhesive sheets which would be a lot easier to use!
