VLV August 2017 Sketch Recap and Viewfinder

Hello, Verve fans, Julee here, with a little recap of the August VLV sketch and a spotlight on a few of the many amazing cards in the linkup already. 

Our challenge is open all month long, so you have until August 31 to link your creations to our Entry Form link list for a chance to win. We'll choose a random winner at the end of the month to win a $40 gift voucher to Verve


I love how easy this sketch makes using patterned paper. Here I actually got to finish up a pad of paper I've been hanging onto for years!  The sentiment is from the Be Blessed stamp set and the flower is from Button Best. I cut it with the Petal Points Die Set and added a couple die cuts from the Sprightly Sprigs set to finish it off.

Here is the August sketch


Link up your creations here:

Below are just a FEW of the gallery entries from the past two weeks that caught my eye.

Love the adorable way JoAnn paired the Strong Anchor frame with the To the Moon set

Nancy used a watercolor wash to simplify the layers on the sketch. Here she paired our The Buzz set with a verse that will be making a re-appearance in a new Scripture Medley set at the end of the month.

Rosemary made this delightful card with our Kindness Matters set and the Great Kindness Die Set.

Sandy made this fantastic holiday card using the Holiday Greetings set (retired)

Vickie pulled in Verve's signature colors for this gorgeous take on the sketch using the Butterfly Grace stamp set and coordinating Graceful Butterflies Die Set


Thanks so much for sharing your cards! We so enjoy seeing you create!
