Card Ideas: Ombre Effect on Craft Metal Sheets
Card Ideas: Ombre Effect on Craft Metal Sheets is our focus this week at Add a Little Dazzle. There are so many amazing card ideas you can come up with using this fun and easy technique. Today, I am going to teach you how you can create the Ombre Effect on Add a Little Dazzle Craft Metal Sheets and then have the metal come through on the design. This technique is fun and will have you wanting to run to your craft room. Let’s have some fun!
Card Ideas with Fun Techniques
If you search the Internet, you will find crafting techniques everywhere. I love looking at them, but then my mind gets rolling and I try to think on how I can incorporate this technique using Add a Little Dazzle Craft Metal Sheets. Sometimes it takes me a while to figure it out, but I will usually come up with a way to do it.
Techniques can be incorporated using Add a Little Dazzle Craft Metal Sheets and my goal is to be able to teach fresh card ideas using techniques and craft metal sheets. Metal is fun to work with and even more when you can give it an unexpected twist such as I did in this week’s Dazzling Diva Challenge #15.
Time for a Challenge
Every week we share a new challenge with you. The first Wednesday of each month is Technique Week. This week I chose to focus on the Ombre Technique in Dazzling Diva Challenge #15 VIEW HERE.

Where did you find the oval frames you used on this card? I love everything about it. Just got my metal sheet order and gelatos yesterday and am ready to play. Thank you!!!!!
Judy,
They are retired SU frames. Go to your local craft store and you will be able to find similar frames made by other companies. SU has a larger one in the clearance rack. Might want to check that one out, too.
Beautiful ombre design with the color palette! Thanks for playing along with us at Mod Squad!
Absolutely stunning!!

I was just looking at the gelados yesterday and had no idea you could use them on metal sheets! This technique is perfect for butterflies!!! I’m definitely getting me some gelados!! Thanks;)
This card is stunning! I tried to figure out how it was colored before the video was out and I was WAY off! I love it!!
Beautiful card! Thanks for the instructional video. I have never tried Gelatos. I was wondering, what is the name of the Anna Griffin EF you used? Thanks.
