Verve Week 3 and Diva Dare!

Happy Hump Day!! Things are gloriously looking up at work... Cecilia is onboard and learning curve is high!! If that doesn't make sense... takes 2 to run my small department... important but, small--when one leaves-- it's heck (200% productivity) so, she is a blessing- both in time and talent and willingness to do what it takes!!

Back to the business at hand... Started this card a couple weeks ago and finally finished!! Used Diva Christyne's sketch for week 3 of the Verve weekly sketch challenges on SCS AND was thinking of the Verve Diva Dare when I was making it.


Had some fun layering it up!! Verve goodies-- Scalloped Trim Trio die, Curvy Bookplate die, Flutterby die, So Fluttery stamps, Tag Time border stamp, and sentiment from Fabulous You. A whole lotta Verve! Added some brads (nod to Christyne- that girl works brads!) and a butterfly (nod to Marissa (butterfly, flower Queen) and Charmaine (bright colors-- mine are a little "deeper" but, bold nonetheless!).
 
The sketch....



Even though I worked on this a while ago... the Universe (oh yeah!) was against me but, I think I'm squeaking it in just in time!!

Thanks for stopping by!! Love when you do and appreciate all the kind words!!

Long time no comment but sure am glad I stopped by, 'cause this is one GORGEOUS card!! Love the yellow and black - really eye catching! So happy to hear you've got a partner in crime at work again!. I'm feeling the heavy load at work as well, though not quite as much as it sounds like you were doing.
