Snow Day!

We only got 12"-18" of snow but that is enough to keep me close to home.  Very chilly out.  That makes it a good day to do laundry and work on some projects.  The Craft Stamper magazine has a call out right now for "Ombre Technique" work. This technique is a simple but effective way of blending color in a gradient of light to dark or vice versa. It is fun to do the ombre technique on paper rather than my hair.  I just can't see myself with blue hair but you never know.  I did a post card with a light blue color that gets darker near the bottom of the card.  It was fun I'll probably try it with several different colors.  Here is the link in the event that you want to play along.


I hope you're having a safe and warm weekend!  Take care ~ Renee
