Freshly Made Sketches #183 & CAS.ology Week 143 - Ombre

Today my mojo got up and left me, so I struggled to think of a design for one of my favourite challenges, Freshly Made Sketches #183 - A Sketch by Linda . . . this was the sketch


http://freshlymadesketches.blogspot.co.uk/2015/04/freshly-made-sketches-183.html

I rotated the sketch anticlockwise and ended up with this







As my embossing paste was ombre and the sponged strips were also ombre, I decided to also enter it for the Cas.ology #143 challenge

Lil' Inker - All About The Ampersand stamp set

    Well, then, Hazel, it looks to me like you don't even need Mr. Mojo if you can make such a superb design without him! Way to go!! Enjoy the weekend!! Hugs, Darnell

    Hazel, I don't think your mojo has left you! This is a beautiful take on both Challenges! I love the dimension you get from your embossing paste, and just love that subtle ombre effect that mirrors your background cardstock. Just lovely. Thanks so much for joining us at CASology this week!
