Imaginarium Designs Chipboard Love Cherish Adore

Have you been hearing alot about Ombre lately?? Ombre seems to be THE next big thing in fashion & scrapbooking trends. A lot of manufacturers have been showcasing Ombre trends & techniques. What is Ombre? Basically it is different tones or colours that shade into each other. I have used Ombre to alter the gorgeous Imaginarium Designs chipboard title Love Cherish Adore. Here is a quick little step by step on how to get THE look of the season!

First start by painting your title with gesso. This gives it a good base & stops your ink colours from seeping into the chipboard.

Choose 3 colours of inks, paints, mists or pan pastels that compliment each other. I chose pink (top shade) lilac (middle shade) & yellow (bottom shade)You will need a light & dark shade of your top & bottom colour. EG I have used a light pink, a dark pink, a light yellow & a dark yellow.

I used a combination of pan pastels & inks. Sassy Scrapper has a gorgeous range of Prima Ingvild Bolme chalk fluid edgers here or Tim Holtz Ranger Distress Inks here which are perfect to use!

Ink the top of 'Love' with a light pink going 3/4's of the way down as you can see in the picture. Ink the remaining 1/4 with lilac.

Ink all of 'Cherish' with lilac

Ink the top 1/4 of 'Adore' with lilac. Ink the remaining 3/4's with light yellow.

Use the dark pink & ink half way over the light pink so now you have 3 colours on 'Love' Dark pink, Light pink the Lilac

Use the dark yellow & hink half way over the light yellow so now you have 3 colours on 'Adore' Lilac, Light Yellow & Dark Yellow

Cover all 3 words in some Glimmer Glam or Glossy Accents for a nice shimmer finish
