Bloom with Hope

We also made one of these cards in my Stamp Club. I loved this layout so much, I ended up making up all different color combos.
 I have to say, I totally cased these cards from LeeAnn Greff. The Bloom with Hope, Hostess set goes perfect with technique.

Have you ever done this technique before? Take 2 large Sticky Notes and Grid Paper to get my lines straight. I counted 4 squares, (1") laid the sticky note down, (you want the sticky part across your card). Then counted 5 squares (1 1/4") over and laid the other sticky note down. Pick out the two colors you would like to use and starting at one end, in a circular motion, sponge dark on the edge and lighter as you get to the center. Then take the other color and do the same. You should have your darkest on the edges, with the middle being lighter. Now all you have to do is stamp the flower image.
 For this card I used Tangelo Twist on the top and Lost Lagoon on the bottom.
This one uses Hello Honey and Tangelo Twist.
 This one has Lost Lagoon on top, with Mossy Meadow on the bottom.
I tried Mossy Meadow on top and Blackberry Bliss on the bottom.

Which one is your favorite? I can't decide........these cards are so pretty you don't even need a ribbon or any other embellishments. I also like all the sentiments that come with this set. Its your one stop stamp set for sure!
Here are the products that I used for these cards. I see I left off the Black Memento Ink. (This ink won't be available until the Blendibilities are available. Last update early July). Keeping my fingers crossed its sooner than later. You are going to flip over the Blendabilities.
