I must preface this with saying the idea is not original to me. I saw Nicole Heady's card when she was introducing this stamp set and really loved the ombred effect she achieved. She used various inks, but I only used one for today's CAS challenge. I achieved the ombred effect by off-stamping. At the bottom, I had off-stamped three times to get the palest shade. A super quick and easy OLC valentine.
For Joan's TLC, I am probably fudging a bit. We were to have multi-colored greetings. (On my card, it is all in how you look at it. : ) It can be "colors" of dark red to pale pink.)

You're safe as far as I'm concerned (I fudged a bit with Joan's challenge, too), Sallie. Red and pink are definitely two different colors. Love your card!
