What could be better than to sponsor you!!!! I am especially swooning over that first card - wonderful ombre stenciling and putting that class knowledge to good use :) The gold arrow is perfect and the black sentiment just adds the right contrast! Your second card came out great, too! so fun to play along with you!
ReplyDeleteLove your ombre hearts stenciled background with the touch of gold. Very pretty! I really love that heart stencil design on your second card. Both cards are fabulous.

Oh Carol, you love cards are gorgeous! The ombre effect on the hearts in the first one is so very pretty. That must have been fun to create the tumbling hearts. The sparkling arrow trying to pierce one is neat. And the gold in the second card is luscious and, yes, beautiful as the sentiment shares. Thank you for sharing the love! I hope you had a delight filled day of love yourself. :) Big hugs!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome inspired cards - it was fun Guesting with the team this week :)

ReplyDeleteTwo wonderful cards, Carol! I like the gold hearts as a change from red/pink. Happy to be playing along with you :)
ReplyDeleteThese are both amazing! Love them! :) I especially love the ombre hearts you inked and the placement of your sentiment is just perfect as the design naturally draws your eyes downward. So glad that you played along with this Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge! Come back soon...a new one starts today! :)
