Hello Verve fans!! Christyne here, bringing you another look at this week's sketch and taking a look at some fabulous cards created this week!
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.
In case you missed it, here is our sketch for this week's challenge:
This week's sketch from Stacey is definitely my cup of tea! Here's my take on it...
For this card, I actually found myself picking my papers first and letting them lead me to the stamps and embellishment choices. They guided me well, right to the One Cup stamp set and to some of my favorite Verve embellishments! Can you find them all?
There have been so many stunning cards already this month! Here's a few of the fantastic cards which were uploaded this week!
I really love the papers and softer colors in this card by Rosemary D. The use of that awesome doilie with the distressed edges gives this card such a nice shabby feel!!
Check out the awesome color and paper combos that Julie S. used! Don't you love that cute twine bow, it's perfect for the simple sentiment!
As far as details go, this card by Jen L. really rocks. I love how she used embellished the flowers with that beautiful cornflower that contrasts so boldly with her royal blue mats!
Thank you all for sharing your stunning creations with us! We still have one sketch left this month, so be sure to join us on Friday for some brand new inspiration!
