We'll have 4 March 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. 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 Week 1 sketch....
And here is the card that I created using this week's sketch.
I just had to use the newly released Chocolate set again as it is just too much fun. I have many chocolate lovers in my life and I can't wait to give this card to my daughter :)
I created a background on the artichoke panel by stamping the word chocolate in VersaMark - though it is hard to see in the picture - and used early espresso for the Chocolate Word Die - dark chocolate lovers unite! A heart to reinforce the sentiment and I was good to go.
Here are a few fabulous creations that I noticed in the gallery this week!
First up is Rosemary's card using Small Packages. A great neutral pallet with a subtle pop of colour.
Next is Lori's card using Better Together (such a fabulous set for masculine cards) and a great mix of papers.
My third selection was Lisa Lynn's cute panda bear card. Love how she used the branch as the horizontal element on the sketch.
Beautiful cards, ladies! Thank you for joining us for this week's sketch challenge.
