Rainbow Blend Background with Decorative Masks!

Hello Everyone!

I’m using the Linked Together decorative masks to create a blended background with just three ink pads.

You can see how i made this card in my video tutorial….

This effect can be achieved with all the Stampin’ Up! colour families – any pink/red, yellow and a blue will work.

The black details make the colours pop. Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends were used to colour the dragonflies, with some Wink of Stella for some sparkle.

The supplies used are listed and linked to the online store below.

I would love to be your demonstrator.

Thanks for stopping by today and happy Stampin’!

By snipping apart die cuts, they can be used in different ways.

Some white frayed ribbon and Brass Butterflies added some texture and shine.
