Viva la Verve June 2014 Week 3 {Sketch & Inspiration}

Welcome to Viva la Verve sketch!

Hey Verve fans!  Chaitali here as your hostess for this week's sketch + inspiration challenge! My very first VLV hosting! <3

Some curves for this week's sketch but an overall CAS one. The inspiration pic is more colorful with some summer colors and a cool b&w pattern. And did you notice yet? It has GOLD!

We'll have 4 June challenges... play along with us and link each of your challenge creations to our Entry Form link list. The link list will be up for the whole month and we'll choose a random winner at the end of the month to win a $100 gift voucher to Verve. Challenge rules can be found on the Rules tab at the top of the blog or by clicking here.  You don't have to complete all of the sketches to win, but the more cards you enter, the greater your odds of winning are. Verve stamps are not required to play, but we do love to see 'em! 

 We'll also be highlighting a couple of our favorite link-ups each Tuesday, so be sure to get your links in if you're crafting over the weekend.

Here is the June Week 3 sketch!


And the inspiration pic!



Here is my take on the sketch! I went with lots of gold glitter, a cool and summery blue for the background and a lightly colored flower for the focal point.


And here are the samples the Divas whipped up!


Maureen used To the Moon and So Fluttery along with the Flutterby die


Betty used Verve's Poppy Birthday with Beautiful Plain Jane stamps with Verve's Build a Poppy  and Flag It die sets and accented with Verve's Shine Bright Sequin Mix.
