Diva Charmaine came up with a great sketch and I once again delved into my new Recollections Garden Floral paper pack, which I got at Michael's over Spring Break with a 50% off coupon - score! Loved the navy with yellow and orange - such a striking combination.Since there was a nice big circle and I haven't used my "U" die recently, out it came. It looks striped but in actuality it is just crimped. The sentiment is a partial - I just didn't ink the "you" word. Not quite brave enough to cut my acrylic stamps yet LOL!
That wraps up the Verve sketches for March :) I can't believe there hasn't been a skewed panel on a sketch yet...shhhhhh.....!!! I'm grinning from ear to ear, but I'm sure that will change soon enough :( So, until them, I'm gleefully enjoying the sketches and all Divas have made it back into my good books LOL!
Have a fabulous day!

I love this....a fun mix of colors and patterns! You should GO for cutting your stamps....a wonderful idea! I haven't regretted it at all. Just start with one you don't use very often!!! Then if you decide you don't like it, you haven't spoiled any favs!!
ReplyDeleteAnother great card, Marisa. . .just my style!
ReplyDeleteFab job with the sketch! Pretty dp~
ReplyDeleteNo skewed panels...I know, isn't it amazing?! I love your crimped "u". :)
ReplyDeleteU make the best designs with that awesome U diecut, Marisa!! This is fabulous--it makes me smile ;)
ReplyDeleteSo cute, Marisa! But isn't there one more March sketch? You're not out of the woods with the skewed panels yet! ; )
ReplyDeleteTricia
that U does looked striped...cool! I think with a little more coaxing, you'll be able to snip a stamp!! The first one is always the hardest....however, you were able to ink this up perfectly...I'm not so accurate so then I bring out the big guns, er scissors! LOL
ReplyDeleteLOVE this Marisa! Fab colors and I LOVE that u!
ReplyDeleteYou make me giggle with your skewed panel dislike! Glad these sketches didn't have any to make you sweat!
ReplyDeleteFabulous card and fun idea with the U!
Ohhh...been so busy, wondering if I almost missed this!!! Love the patterned paper you used along with the other colors!! Striped "U" is fabulous along with that butterfly!!!
ReplyDeleteKay girl...I was looking and commenting quickly...crimped not striped U.....how'd that happen...just wondering!?!?
ReplyDeleteLove that jumbo U....great card!!
ReplyDeleteAnother fab card Marisa! Especially with that bit of patterned paper.
