Viva La Verve Challenge Wk1

Viva La Verve over on Splitcoast Stampers hold a monthly challenge of sketches, each week of the month one of the DT will post a sketch, all you have to do is make sure you have all four sketches completed before the end of the month!

Week 1

Sorry image a bit wonky!

I decided to do a very simple matting and layering style for this card, the background on the cardstock is stamped with a floral design from the Stamping Up range.

Viva la Verve - Jan - week 4

4th sketch for Viva La Verve on Splitcoasts Stampers!

Do you like my border around my circle??? I do,  I love it and it will be featuring more in my cards! I found this fantastic tutorial on the Whiff Of Joy Inspirations blog by Kylie!  Do take a look if you would like to use this technique.

If you would like to take a peek at my cards they are on my gallery on Splitcoast Stampers!

2nd sketch for Viva La Verve on Splitcoasts Stampers! I am entering this into the Whiff of Joy challenge too - Challenge #96 - Chocolate, Teal and Cream

I have used Oakley with Bauble, for a Christmas themed card as I seem to be slipping on the Christmas Card making!

Viva la Verve - Jan - week 1

 This is my first time playing with Viva La Verve on Splitcoasts Stampers! 4 sketches are posted weekly for a month and obviously you have a month to complete the challenge and then post them on the thread!

Thought I would do matting and layering instead of colouring for this one!
