VLV Feb Week 3
Took a deep breath and tackled this next Verve skewed sketch challenge. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be - hark, am I finally getting a bit more accustomed to these skewed creatures...??!!
I combined this sketch with the Get Your Diva On challenge hosted by Charmaine and her selection of this gorgeous inspiration piece. Loved the soft, romantic feel of this picture and heck, there was a heart in it so I snuck in just one more heart card for good measure.
I VersaMarked French Script on the background panel, used this wonderful K & Company DP on the skewed panel and doubled up on my hearts as per the sketch. Bonus is I got to use my new Martha Stewart Border punch, which I just love. Some silver bling to mimic the candy on the top of the heart, some sheer ribbon and this gorgeous paper rose to tie in the flowers and ribbon around the napkin and I am done just under the wire - phew!! Must be the glorious sunshine we are having today :)
Miss not posting as much as I normally do....half way through my work for hubby and pushing hard to get through it in the next to three weeks.
Miss you and hugs to all :)

I was going to say look at you tilting the layer-- than I saw the sketch - lol. I KNOW you are not into tilting -- beautiful card even tilted :)
Hey, you rocked the skewed panel! This is a great card for both challenges and I love that MS border at the bottom!
This is such a beautiful card Marisa! ♥
This is gorgeous, Marisa,...so delicate. I love that background paper too, and the scallop at the bottom with the silver pearls. Beautiful.
I think you're skewing just fine! What a beautiful card!
Marisa, this is GORGEOUS girl! Love the bottom edge, pretty ribbon and soft paper! Beautiful!!!
Oh, this is lovely Marisa! That is such a beautiful patterned paper that works perfectly with the die cut hearts. I love the punched border along the bottom. Glad you were able to find time for a card!
So feminine and pretty!
How pretty! Love the hearts!!
yay, you did it!! Knew you could ;) Love the 2 different sized hearts and sheer ribbon with the rose :) Fun, fun border punch :) I did see the bling on sale a week or so ago, but all the clear gems were gone and I really do have enough bling...lol, a whole draw and then another partial draw with extras :) I hope it doesn't go out of style for a LONG time!
Marisa, this is amazing! From the looks of this beauty, it looks as though skewed panels are your friend! LOL! This is gorgeous and so beautifully done! Love the love!
I've missed your posts, Marisa!! But can totally relate to being called away from the paper therapy for work reasons. Another skewed panel?? You are a glutton for punishment, eh? But hard-for-you or not, you nailed this sketch and came up with a beauty. :)
Oh! Wow! What a lovely card -- The backgroud is gorgeous!
Fabulous as always Marisa, skewed layers and all!! I'm like you; can't cope with anything that isn't straight lines! xx
Gorgeous card!!! I need to try the border thing on the bottom of a card!!! Love all the silver pearls and you seem to be friendly with skewed panels now!!
Absolutely delightful Marisa!! So soft and feminine! xxx
I love how you've used the double hearts in the sketch Marisa...very sweet, love that Martha Stewart border punch too....I bought it recently and love how it looks!
Good luck with your extra work.. Hope you get it done soon. This is beautiful.. I love this sketch. It always helps me to stamp to just release all that stress. Great job Marisa.
Marisa, beautiful card! Glad to see you embracing the skewed panels :) Looks fantastic :)
A royal beauty, my dear! Love the pink and white with those girly hearts and the wonderful organza ribbon...just exquisite!
Beautiful, Marisa! I think you are secretly beginning to love these skewed panels. LOL You do great work with them. Love that punch, hmmm...do I have it??? I don't think so. Crank up the car. HA
Very girlie and pretty. I like the hearts ofcourse and so dainty feeling.
Holy dinah - you totally rocked this! I loved it on SCS and I'm loving it here. The bling and hearts are perfect. My nesties can't arrive soon enough for me to CASE this beauty =)
I have that Martha border punch too! 'Quilted', I think it's called. It looks so romantic here on this feminine card.
