Julee, over at Verve is running a challenge/contest for the entire June release! I am trying once again - however, I am so happy with the end result of this project that I feel like I already won! LOL. Julee's challenge was to pick sketches from the last 6 months from the weekly challenges that Amber hosts, and make 5 cards. I guess I was drawn to the month of March since 4 out of 5 are from it! I used one of my absolute favorite color combos - black, bermuda bay, white and a touch of red. [Oh this combo just makes me so HAPPY!] I used a couple of sentiments from Gina K Designs (congratulations & happy birthday) from the
Inside & Out stamp set. The rest are Verve stamps;
Happy Days and
Happiness Found. As you can see, I made 4 cards with a card holder. Gina K made this holder about 5 months ago she called it a
Memory Keeper, for photos - but it works so great for cards that I adapted it. Is this awesome or what! [I used velcro to keep the lid closed.] Okay, you ready to see the final results???
Here it is all together. The box has the sketch on the flap.
Well, this post took me FOREVAH to load it up~ wow. I hope it looks good when you see it. Thanks so much for stopping by - keep your fingers crossed - I really would like to have a double win~~ Later..
EDITED - OMGosh I am so bummed - I didn't fully read the directions so I am not eligible for the challenge/contest. Dammit~~ Oh well, there is always next month because like I said in the beginning I LOVE the way this turned out and it is going to be a FABULOUS gift for someone, and I am so done with trying to make this many cards at once - it's exhausting...bwahahahah
