Hugs and Wishes

For this card I started by stamping the rows of hearts in white and embossing in white, then I used my long forgotten chalks, in three shades of pink to get this ombre effect and accidentally the white embossed hearts grabbed the pink chalk. So I decided to colour them in with white gel pen. I cut this down and layered it on white and then onto a heart embossed background. To finish I stamped the IBS sentiment and attached it with a mini heart brad. I'm posting my card to Shopping Our Stash #186 - Love me do, Addicted to Stamps and More - Clean and Simple, The Card Concept 27 - Love, and Inspired by Stamping IBSIC #90, where I've with both the sketch and Heart theme for my card.
Thanks for taking a peek Robyn
