Viva La Chloe...

Won Verve's last release playing in their weekly sketch challenge on SCS. Make a card using the sketch each week, upload at the end of the month, and there's a random drawing... winning Verve's next release!! WhooHoo!! I have been dying to use the basket in the Chicks Rule set so... combining the week 1 sketch by Amber and Chloe {she's the cute little chick in the basket}... here's my card



















Stamped the basket and Chloe in crumbcake. Masked Chloe and stamped the flowers in crumbcake. Colored Chloe and the flowers with copics. Added some crystal effects to the center of the flowers. The basket was stamped again on Crate Paper Emma's Shoppe dp and paper pieced. Love this dp... it's so springy and gorgeous!! Flower for Chloe's hair punched with the SU itty bitty flower punch and added some hot pink irridescent pearls from Pizzazzaplenty.

Verve also has a monthly challenge called "Dare to Get Your Diva On" this month is Think Spring. You can check it out here. There are prizes to be won.... GO check it out!!

Amber's sketch


















TFL!!

Hope you're having a wonderful Saturday!! DH and I went looking at trees {the tree we had arborists do minor surgery on didn't make in the 60-90 mile/hour winds last week, at least it only landed on the deck and not the house} and bought some flowers to spruce things up!! Love spring!!

If you stop by, leave a comment... makes my day!!

Great take on that tricky sketch - at least it was a bit tricky for me LOL. Love the DPs and cute little duck in the basket.

Glad to hear your house wasn't damaged in the wind storm and I agree, I love spring and all the pops of colour the flowers bring. Now we have to get out weather to cooperate!
