Make It Monday #188 Stamping Ombre Backgrounds with Laura

My card trying the ombre effect demonstrated by Laura MIM 
5
Isn't her's gorgeous?

My card is for my brother who will have a birthday while I am basking in the Hawaiian Sunshine with Colleen.
PTI's Ombre Builders, in Pure Poppy, Orange Zest, Harvest Gold, New Leaf, Blueberry Sky and Royal Velvet.
Happy One Liners and Wonderful Words Birthday
  I tried making one with greens and blues but it didn't turn out so went for the normal rainbow colors.   I'm not that happy with my card.  It's just Ok
