City Crafter Challenge Guest Star ~ Go Ombré and DJKASEing Sarah

Hello and Happy Twosday! I hope you had a lovely weekend and I hope your week delights you!

If you are looking for my NBUS Challenge #4, click HERE. 

Thank you to everyone who has already played!

Today it is my pleasure to be Guest Starring for another week at the City Crafter Challenge Blog! For this week's challenge, we are celebrating ombré! You may use any color of the rainbow for your ombré range.

Because I can't seem to get enough of turkoyce and teal and aqua, that was the range I chose for my inspiration cards for you.

Darnell's card

For my first card, I used some of Anita's paper and did a watercolor ombré wash using my water brush and markers and set it aside to dry. On my card front, I cut an oval using my Sizzix die and once my painted paper was dry, I cut an oval from it and inlaid it into the oval card opening. Over that I adhered the die-cut "Prim Poppy" from Memory Box and topped it off with an oval die-cut frame. The sediment is from SU. I cut it in half to be able to place one word over the other. It was inked with Kaleidacolor blue breeze.

I hope you will be able to join in this week at City Crafter! We'd love to see you there!

And, remember, 

if you use any never-before-used schtuffs,

 you can also enter your card in my NBUS Challenge #4! 

Have fun!

DJKASE of Sarah

Over at Less Is More this week, the brief is to CASE one of the DT's cards. (Of course, I want to add it to my DJKASE tab at the top, so I'll call it a DJKASE.) I chose Sazzle Dazzle Sarah's card design, which is below. I hope you can see the inspiration in both of my cards today!

For my second card (for Easter), I did make a shaker:

In order to accommodate my shaker, my oval sits on top on this card. The fun bead shakers are from Pretty Pink Posh. Even though it looks like I glued all those loose beads in a funky row, I dinnit. They just hung there like that for the picture, all orderly and patient. Except for that one guy. There's one in every crowd, isn't there?

The ingredients for this card are the same as for my first card, except for the sediment which is from the NBUS Waltzingmouse set, "Compact Sentiments."

Thank you, Sarah, for the privilege of DJKASEing one of your excellent works of card art ~ twice!!
