made but it most certainly won't be my last!

Are you ready for another great challenge this week?!

It's time to get out those punches, fancy scissors, dies, and/or cutting machines!

Viva la Verve week 2 and Verve Diva dare!

Good afternoon friends! Hope your Monday's

are all going fabulously! I decided I would

put up one more card today that I made

over the weekend. I'm really loving this one!

Just bought this paper pack from Fancy Pants

and have had the flowers from the dollar bin at

Michaels for a week or so...

This card is using the sketch for Viva la Verve

July week 2. I am also entering it into

this week's Diva Dare over at the Verve Blog.

This month's Diva Dare is featuring

Julee (owner of Verve) and Teresa! SO exciting! 

I just can't get enough of Teresa and Julee's 

gorgeous cards!!

Tattered Pages, July Diva Dare

This month's dare pays tribute to Julee (Poetic Artistry), 

owner and creator of Verve Stamps and Diva Teresa (Paperie Blooms).

  Julee has created countless, uplifting sentiments which have become

 one of Verve's trademarks, and Teresa knows 

how to rock distressing and "shabbiness" on her cards.  

So what we're daring you to create this month is a card 
using an uplifting sentiment and some distressing and/or shabby 
element to it. Kind of like an encouraging card you 
have received which you have read so many times the 
edges are a bit tattered.  Just remember to use 
at least one Verve product on your creation!  

My creation:

Supplies:

Fancy Pants paper

Verve plain jane, Studio G ink

Sizzix leaves die, paper flowers (Michaels)

button, bakers twine

Original sketch:

Viva la Verve Weeks 1 and 3

Hope y'all had a great weekend! Can't complain

about mine. Got some housework done, got most of

my parents and sisters, got in a nice Sunday nap after church,

two tomorrow. The other two are DT cards for

two of the challenges I design for you'll have to wait 

on those...
