Welcome to our third Viva la Verve sketch of October!
Hey there, Verve fans! Marisa here with this week's Recap and Viewfinder.
We'll have 5 October 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 this week's Viva la Verve sketch for Week 3....
Here's what I whipped up with the sketch today!
Combined some yummy Basic Grey paper with Echo Park's polka dots and
some neutrals, crimped the kraft panel for some "manly" texture lol,
used the Birthday to You Plain Jane for my sentiment and a bit of trim with the Pennant Trim die, included a maple leaf as it is great masculine accent and I have been a bit negligent in using them this fall.
Here are a few beautiful cards I spied in the link-up this week...
Autumn's card using this wonderful verse from Scripture Medley 3 and fun pompom ribbon paired with the fun recipe paper caught my eye.
Love Petra's use of open circles and a touch of twine. Love the faux stitching from Borderline, and her sentiment panel using Friendly Phrases (retired) on the Charming Banner dies.
Loved Vickie's take on the sketch for her Halloween themed card. I always love seeing the pumpkins from Bountiful Harvest, and she paired them wonderfully with the scalloped image in Deco Borders. The Starry die provided her scatter of stars.
Make sure to come back on Friday for our Week 4 sketch!
