Default **Viva la VERVE! December Week 1 {11/27/09}**

Welcome to December! Well, in a couple days, anyways! I can hardly believe the year has gone by as fast as it has! It has been so fun bringing you {twisted} sketches all month and I've thoroughly enjoyed our little group. Can't wait to see what next year brings? Well here's a taste...it will be different. Bwahahahha! Aren't I evil? Well, I'll still be bringing you sketches, but the twist will be different, you'll just have to wait a couple more weeks to find out what it will be!

For the month of December, I'm going to take it easy on you girls. There will be NO TWISTS for the entire month! That's right, just sketches, and I want you to take liberties with them if you have too! Please don't feel confined to the shapes/set up (if it's portrait, feel free to make it a landscape instead!), embellishment placement, just do yo' thang! Also, there will be NO grand prize this month. Since there is no new release planned (to my knowledge) for December, lets just play for fun, no stress!
The only "prize" I'll be giving away this month, to the person who completes all the December sketches, is the first position as my side-kick with sketch examples! One of my plans for next year is that in addition to winning a new Verve Release, the winner will be sent ALL of the following months sketches and will be creating samples with me! If this is something you're not interested in, it's definately not mandatory, lol! You can simply tell me you'd rather not be tied down to doing the sketches every week and I'll pick someone else for that part Sound good? Got questions? Fire away, I'm ready for them

There will be FOUR sketches this month (the last week of the month will be a week off), have all FOUR uploaded and linked to the Champions thread (created during the last week of the month) by MIDNIGHT, 26 December, and I'll announce the winner on the 27th! This will give the winner a week to prepare her card for the 1st Sketch of January!

So without further ado, I give you VLVDec01! The layout for this sketch was inspired by THIS card by Michelle Boyer! I saw it in the gallery and just loved the layout and wanted to make a sketch out of it Thanks Michelle for the permission to use your beautiful layout! Keywords this week are VLVDec01 and VERVE (if you're using Verve stamps!)

My Sample
VLVDec01 Gallery

Hope you had a FABULOUS Thanksgiving!!

Fun sketch, Amber. This is for my DD's teacher from last year. He owns an Irish Terrier so it is perfect for him.
