Ombré in scrapbooking

There are so many fun ways to add the ombré effect to your scrapbooking pages.  You can use paper, watercolor pencils, ink, misting etc. to give your background or embellishments a fun and trendy look.  Challenge 6 in Super Stashbusters was to use the ombré on a layout in some way. I opted to follow the sketch and used paper in my background to create the ombré.  I found that I didn't have a ton of patterned paper that would go together and create the look I was going for, so I had to use some background stamps to add some visual interest to my plain old cardstock.

Here is the final result:
