More Vervalicious Cards

Today I have 3 more cards to share that will be added to my Verve gift card set which I shared yesterday.  I took advantage of  some fab-u-lous sketches out there and went to work.  I originally wanted the Blue Skies set because of the cute note paper stamp, but I honestly have not gotten past these butterflies.
First up is a card based on this week’s Paper Player’s sketch challenge #11.
 
Next is a card based on this week’s Card Pattern’s sketch #77.
 
Last, but certainly not least, is one based on this week’s Card Positioning System sketch #180.

 
I am almost done, now I need to get working on a box to hold these all…
Smiles,
Julie
Details:  Stamps - Blue Skies and Thankful Accents (Verve), PP - Retired SU DSP, CS - Always Artichoke, Very Vanilla, and Bashful Blue (SU), Ink - Always Artichoke (SU), Buttons (PTI), Embossing Folders - Swirls (Cuttlebug), embroidery floss and thread, plus a ton of dimensionals.
