The Ink gals were blown away by the response to the Polka Dots challenge, with creativity that made our hearts smile! Thank you!
Speaking of hearts: do you see the pretty pastel *sweet* hearts we're tempting you with for Inkspirational Challenge #128:
Ros Crawford, whose card is soft, delicate and, well, swoon-inducing! You'll be dazzled...as you will with those of my teammates;

I confess: nothing original with this card at all! The photo was the *perfect* excuse to case one of the cards that I adore over at the Concord & 9th site, featuring the Heart Strings and Heart Smiles stamp and die set. I. Just. Had. To. And so I did! My hearts are somewhat different from the original card, but the layout? Copied...and I like it! Stamping and cutting the hearts took a bit of time, but oh, what fun! You can't help but smile when you're making something that will actually work *grin*
Thank you, C9, for the inspiration! I made this card before heading north on my 'working' visit and it was quickly claimed by my sister-in-law for one of her friends. Happy me and, hopefully, happy friend receiving it.
Any big plans for the weekend? Not me...just carrying on crafting, making a mess, missing my husband, not cleaning up my mess (yet...), more crafting...Yep, I'm a real wild one when my husband's away. HA! NOT!
Hope your Saturday is filled with doing whatever your heart desires...
Thank you for spending part of your day with me; your visit brings me joy!

What a great card Carol...lovely ice cream colours like those in the picture. yes I too would love nails like that...bet she has a cleaner!!..lol xx
Look at all the pretty hearts in all the lovely, sherbet-y colors. Happy Sigh...just wonderful. If there's a great card design, don't mess with it...too much. This is very pretty. How gratifying that your sister claimed it right away. I'm sure the recipient is, or will be soon, smiling big time. Thanks for sharing.
Your hearts are so charming, and I love the placement of your sentiment! Beautiful color palette, too...Love this card, Carol!
Super sweet card looks just like candy on your card
Fabulous design - just looks like the sweethearts sweets/candies and love how you've placed the arrowed word.
I too wish I had nails like that, ha ;)

I'm not sure your card could be anymore SWEET?!!...Love all those little hearts!
And I don't have any big plans for the weekend, either. Just trying to take it easy. ;) Enjoy your weekend of crafting and making messes. heehee...(I will say, you sound a lot like someone else I know. *wink, wink.) Hugs

PPS: The Weight of Blood, right? I remember that one being pretty heavy due to the content. I would be interested to know your thoughts =)
Awesome, all those candy hearts! I loved them as a child (still would love them, I'm sure, but have to cut down on sugar :(
Love all your sweet little hearts, Carol ...they look good enough to eat ...just like the ones in the photo!!!!! Beautifully done a very cute card!!!!

Oh my this is such an awesome take on the challenge Carol!! Love the soft colors and the rows of hearts is just brilliant! What a fabulous "love" theme! :) HUGS
Your soft & pretty card conjures up memories of the local corner store and the Sweetheart candies (remember...the ones with all the sayings on them). Love the black "Love" sentiment - totally pops!
Totally love all of the hearts and the sayings on them. It reminds me of the Sweet Tarts, I used to eat. Wonderful clean and simple layout. Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful talent with us at 4 Crafty Chicks Love Challenge.
