Verve SOA Sketch Challenge - in a Flash!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm doing a quick post to show you the card I needed to pull together for a wedding I'm going to next weekend.



I used Pink Passion, green from Joann's paper pack, Going Grey and Paper Express Store (Local) Cream cardstock. I also used rhinestones and cream grosgrain ribbon from the $1 bin. Martha Stewart Scallop punch and Sissix Texture Plates Flowers #3 and #4. Verve stamps are: sentiment from Wishful Elegance "Wedding Wishes" and inside is Jeremiah 29:11 verse. The wedding wishes is die cut from a Nesties label 1 die and then rotated. I printed out the free Forget-Me-Not digi stamp given through the SOA site (Stampin Out Alzheimers) here. You need to sign up on this site and donate to the SOA Paypal, but there are a lot of fun Freebies and challenges and that makes it worth it. I used my aqua pen and colored the flowers with Pink Passion, Green Galore and then I cut it out and popped it with dimensionals. I went over the Forget-Me-Not flowers with a very cool pen my mother-in-law gave me from Sakura called Gelly Roll Clear Star. Love using that pen.

Well, I've got to run off to bed. Here's my card.



I also made this cute card for Viva La Verve's last challenge of the month.

It was too much fun. Used Close To My Heart stamps for the buckle and belt from the "Lovely Buckles" set and the sentiment is a Plain Jane from Verve. Not sure where I got all the paper.

Have a great weekend!

And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
