Viva La Verve January 2011

Have you ever played along with Viva La Verve on SCS?  Each Friday, one of the Verve Divas posts a sketch in the Verve SCS forum.  Create cards using each sketch posted during the month and you have a chance to win next month's release from Verve!  I know that you really win the whole release, because I won Viva La Verve the first time I played along back in August!!!  I am sharing my cards for January's sketches, but it may be too late for you to join in, unless you are a super speedy crafter.  The deadline is tonight!



The lacey circles are a new SVG available from Perfect Presentation, aptly named "Lacey Circles".  I made the circles a little smaller - don't you love the ability to resize?!!!  I made these cards with the thought of eventually creating a set of cards perfect for gift giving.  That means you won't have to guess what colors and patterns you will be seeing for February's sketches!!!  I am stealing one card out of this set since I need to send Get Well wishes.  Some things take priority :>).
Smiles,
Julie
