Inkspirational Second Helpings

Ombre - does everyone's voice drop an octave or two when they say this word? =/ [And why does blogger continue to take away my acute e?]  Graduated tones of color, from dark to light, or light to dark = gorgeous. 

I did raise Carol one chip card, right?  For c, and Inkspirational Challenge #74:

This one is all about Mr. B. with a little help from Simon, Paper Smooches, and MFT.

This may be a really good case of "when the chips are down." I'm certainly down with it... =]

ACK! If I was swooning over the previous card, this one has my heart pitter-pattering with unbridled LOVE! How gorgeous - and yes, indeed, you have added even MORE incentive to add to my paint chip stash (actually, I think I'm 'ruined'...I want to use paint chips only *grin*). In awe...the kind of AWE that leaves you breathless and spell-bound! You ROCK!
