{Say it with Flowers} Viva La Verve

Hi everyone,

it's time for a little viva la vida loca...oh no wait...I meant to say Viva La Verve lol. I can't help but start singin' that song whenever I think of Viva La Verve. It makes me want to break out the margaritas and have some guacamole and attempt some salsa dancing. lol

aaahhh but that's not what this is all about...at least not right now ;).

We have a new sketch challenge for you this week brought to you by the fabulous Amy Sheffer....and she is challenging us to tilt some panels, add some cute embellies but mainly do some tilting with this sketch right here:

Are you up for the challenge??

You'll notice that I tilted some panels the wrong way and I did some more tilting than really is in the sketch bbbuutt I like to be a little rebel every once in a while soo there you go. :)

So let's talk Stamps and Details:

The stamps I used are from the Verve set Love's Flower. I colored the flower with Copic Markers and then applied Frosted Lace Stickles Glitter to the petals to give it that silver look. As a final touch I put a black rhinestone in the middle of the flower. 

Then do you see the cute postage stamps? I cut them out using our Stamp Trip CutUps die from the Cat's Pajamas, used the mask that comes with it to ink the inside grey and then I stamped some more flowers also from Verve's Love's Flower and colored them in with a white gel ink pen.

For the little pocket behind that I used the Library Pocket Die from Papertrey Ink, cut a piece of white CS, rounded the corners, distressed the edges and added a button as a last touch. Ouh and the sentiment was a little plain jane I got as thank you for one of my orders. Isn't Julee just the bestest?! :)

okay that about wraps it up for me today.

I hope you have a great weekend!!!

-til next time :)
