Talking June 2009 Release Week Challenges

Are you ready for another Verve-tastic release?

Well, our next release is just around the corner {this Friday night, June 26 @ 9PM Eastern}
and we're so excited to share the new designs with you! The Verve Diva sneak peeks start Wednesday morning on the {Verve Blog}, so be sure to tune in!

In the meantime, we thought we'd have a little fun and host a few challenges this week. Are you on board? Well, lets' get started!!!


The rules:
  • Make 5 new cards with the provided sketches
  • Upload to your SCS gallery with the proper keyword
  • Post your links in the I DID IT! Champions thread by the deadline
  • Verve Stamps are NOT required, but we love to see 'em.
  • If you don't have a certain shape feel free to substitute.
  • Have fun!!!!

Deadline: The deadline for prize drawings will be 5:00 PM Eastern time on Friday, June 26.

Prizes: One participant from each challenge will win a stamp set of their choice.
One Grand Prize winner (who participates in each challenge and post their links to the I DID IT - Verve Release Week Champions Thread) will receive our entire new release!


I've made a printable pdf of all five challenges. Just right click the link below and save the PDF to your hard drive. I'll also add it as an attachment in case that works better for you.

June 2009 Release Week Challenges Download (PDF)

Winners will be announced during our Release Party on Friday, June 26.

Feel free to chatter in this thread. You're not "required" to put your links here, but if you want to post them as you go, it's always fun to see!

There's a different keyword for each sketch. They're listed on each sketch... VSJUN01, VSJUN02, etc.

You are the master sketch designer, Julee. Love them! Going to be a busy week with school wrapping up for the kids this week as well as soccer, piano etc., etc. Off to play so I can get as many done today as I can!
