Cards

Hello Friends,
I’m at Week #4 for the Verve Sketch Challenge for May.  Yeah!  I finally finished another card.  I really do love this sketch.  I used my new Verve Small Celebrations stamp set for this card.  I’m enjoying this set because it has several sentiments which I can change out for the circle frame.  I used some of the Tim Holtz distress ink on my stamped images.

I dug out some paper from one of my old K&Company Paper pads and used some Rose Red cardstock and ribbon which I found on the Stampin’ Up! Clearance rack.  I always loved that color of theirs.  Thought it was a perfect match for my paper.   By the way, I got my new Stampin’ UP! catalog in the mail this past week and I just love some of their new items for paper piercing.  Can’t wait until June when you can actually order out of it.  I haven’t been a SU demo for a few years but I still like their cardstock and like getting a few other things from there.  Their catalogs have lots of project ideas so that’s why I like pouring over it.  It’s what I’ve been taking with me this week while I wait to pick my daughter up at school.  If you need your own catalog, go see Patty.

Well, I have a lot to do today so I”m off to get some things done.  Hope you all have a beautiful and creative day.

 

 

Hello Creative Friends,
Since I needed a thank you card this week, that’s what I did for the  Verve Sketch Challenge for May Week 3.

I used some K& Company paper and the Delightful and Delicious Verve stamp set for the saying and cup.  The little note pages are also a Verve stamp called, Notebook Paper.  I just love that little stamp.  I inked the edges of everything to give it a little dimension.  I didn’t want to put any ribbons or buttons or anything on it that stuck up because I need to send this one through the mail.

Hello Creative Friends,

Thought I’d enter the Verve Challenge this month.  I used to enter all the time but always fizzle out and never finish the whole month.  Something always comes up and I can’t get all the cards done in time.  We’ll see how I do this time:)  They have such fun sketches I like trying them out.

For today’s card I used an image from the Verve Always on My Mind set and for the paper I used some of the 1st Edition Spring Feast, which I keep using on everything but I just love it.  So springy!  The butterfly is a die cut.

Have to tell you I love doing cards and things with butterflies.  There’s so much you can do with them.

 

Have a creative day,

Hello Creative Friends,

Here’s my entry for the Viva La Verve Week #2 Challenge.   I love this verse and stamp.  This is one of those weeks where I should really sit back and do what that verse says.

I used some K&Company scrapbook paper and embellished with some crochet trim, pearls, ribbon, and a button.  I really wish the photo would have captured how vibrant the scrapbook paper is that I used.  I tried taking it in different light, etc., etc., but finally gave up.  The burgundy center of the flowers and the green leaves are really so pretty and I wish that would have showed up more.

Have a great weekend everyone!
