Ombre Blended Background with Easy Blend Sprays

A project from our live show Brand Showcase in the HTCN studios - PEARLYWINKS - broadcast Friday 25th Feb 22 - 1st show · 25/02/2022

Create a smooth colour gradient using three easy blend spray colours, blending them together on cardstock to transition from one colour to another. This technique produces a soft, professional-looking ombre effect perfect for backgrounds.
