Dream Big


Greetings from soggy Virginia! It's been raining all week, but rumor has it the sun may show its bright self later this afternoon. Hope so!

I'm excited to be hosting this week's Viva La Verve sketch challenge. All the details are posted HERE in the Verve forum. Hope you'll join us and play along! If you don't have any Verve, that's okay, we'd still love to see your sketch interpretation. And if you play in all four of the September challenges (posted weekly, but not due 'til the end of the month), you could win some Verve!


Here's my Week 2 sketch:


For my sample, I used a tag image and sentiment combo from Verve's new Tag Time set. The tags are also die-cut with Verve's Tiny Sweet Scallop Die Set. The papers are from the My Mind's Eye Lost & Found Two Sunshine collection.

Have a great weekend!
