Welcome back to Inkspirational Challenges everyone, and a rousing round of applause for all the great entries in our last challenge. Plenty of ombre-awesome in the gallery!
Today, I'm sharing details about Inkspirational #75~
Guidelines: Use rose shades of red and /or pink. You may also use green leaf colours, black, white or cream and realistic colours for skin, fur and hair.
My card marks the debut of some new Reverse Confetti products (swooning over these hearts - and they're just a sampling of the full stamp/die set)) and a new TH wood-grain embossing folder. The hearts were sponged/inked with my "vast" selection of three pink/red inks
Once you've checked out the Jill and the DTs cards, please be sure to add your rose-inspired card to the gallery. One entrant will be invited as a Guest Designer for a future challenge.
My card "pinged" from the pretty image at The Card Concept #27~Love (clean and graphically layered?)
I'm also entering: TIME OUT #23 Valentine's Day with the Optional Twist of Hearts,
Simply Create Too #78~Valentine's Day/Hearts and Simon Says Wednesday Challenge~Anything Goes.
Thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments add sparkle to my day!
Hugs...

Carol, this is just beautiful! One of the most beautiful Valentine's Day cards I have ever seen. I love your cascading hearts down your embossed tree, so sweet and just so perfect.
it looks like the hearts are bursting out of the tree, I love the movement!
These hearts are scrumptious Carol! I love the texture too~
This is a total CUTIE of a card! Love the extra subtle ink blending of the front big heart with the word Love - this makes it really pop against the other hearts. :)
Beautiful card Carol! The hearts look great layered over that embossed background. It is almost like you combined the "rose" challenge with the "ombre" one!

Love the look you've created here with different sized hearts against a wooden background. I really like the design of the hearts and how you popped them and made them look thicker, like they're made of ceramic or something, that's pretty cool!
Wow! Great work! Thank you for joining us over at TO Challenge.
