Ducky Hope


It's the last Friday of the month and Viva La Verve Challenge has gone CAS!

Today's splashing sketch is from super diva Tosh. The last sketch of the month means there's only a few days left to play along for this months prize. You can play along anytime but to be eligible for the prize, all four (4) February Viva La Verve Challenge's sketches need to be uploaded to your SCS gallery with a VLVFeb2012 tag. This month the deadline is March 1, 11:59pm CT. Have all four (4)  of your cards in gallery in time and you will be eligible to win a $100 gift certificate to the Verve Shop. How cool is that!!!! Now, here's how I took this weeks challenge...

About this time last year I was introduced to a few feathered friends when I guest designed with Verve. Now that spring is approaching, at least in my wishful mind it is, I figured it's time to get out Lucky Duck and ink him up.  He was perfect with this sketch and because last years card with him was so much fun, I thought I would CASe the idea. I kept asking myself why I was putting a water fowl in grass yet again and I supposed it was because I just love making grass.  Doesn't a bird need some idle time?


I hope you'll join in on the sketch today. I had so much fun with it and I can imagine there are quite a few more cards I need to make with it to finish off my feathered friend collection.

It's Friday and sometimes by now we just want things to be a little bit easier for us, right? Well, here's all four (4) sketches with links for you!

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
