Viva la Verve-January 2012 Week 1
Hi friends, we are starting Viva la Verve once again after taking a break through the holidays....yippie! I am soooo exciting about getting back into creating our Friday sketches. You can play along with us here. I have made a birthday card using the Verve stamps sets Cupcake Affair and Big Wish. I have added a gemstones flourish, stitching, and stickles to the cupcake. You will luv this sketch, a great way to use up patterned paper...and if you are like me you have tons of scrap paper....teehehehe. I have played along with a couple of challenges listed below. I hope you have a super weekend, be sure to spend some quality time with a family member...enjoy! I want to share this quote with you today....

Your cupcake looks good enought to eat Teresa! Love the colours...pink black and grey are always a great colour combo. The black zig zag stitching looks great against the pink. Thanks for joining in the fun at LCI this fortnight xx
