Default **Viva la Verve! October Week 2 {10/9/09}**

Hey Vervies! Sorry I didn't get this up sooner, been a super stressful week so I'm going to keep it short, lol!

***For VLV Newbies, here are the deets! Every Friday I will post a new sketch with a {twist}. The {twist} is an extra requirement for your sketch card! Could be an inspiration challenge, a color challenge, a limited supplies challenge, who knows! There is no solid deadline for each sketch, but they DO need to be uploaded to the VLV Gallery by the last week of the month! For October, there will be four sketches and all four sketches must be uploaded by MIDNIGHT CST on 29 October! I will announce the winner on 30 October! Verve stamps are NOT required to play with us but if you have them, please use them, we don't want them getting lonely! What's up for grabs? Well, Verve's ENTIRE next release of stamps!!! So are you ready to play?***

The twist this week is a color challenge! I don't know about you, but I'm starting to get a tad bit tired of orange and brown! This week I don't want to see EITHER COLOR ON YOUR CARD! I know, it'll be tough but you can do it!




Keywords this week are Verve (if you're using Verve stamps) and VLVOct02

lmbo! You guys are so right, I need chocolate!
So my stressful situation was my Air Force PT Test, ack! For a girl who's had 3 knee surgeries and 2 ankle surgeries, this is not a fun thing. It's all good though, I passed so now I can relax again, for 6 more months, lol!

Amber, you are too funny!!! Yeah, the combo orange and brown are not my favs, either. Now, brown with other colors is a different story. Fun challenge. Hope I did not break the rules by vintaging my colors up a bit.

Here is mine....

Button Peacock Thanks!

Well this was nice b/c I was using alot of brown, orange and greens. This one is cheerful I think. For some reason my system will not let me put a link in there:
