sorry I had to add a few more shapes to mine. I had to make it vintagey for a coworker's wife

She loves the vintage look so I poured it on!

This card is stunning! For January there was an inspirational picture for week 1, was that just for January?

Sian · 02-02-2013, 12:21 AM

Amber, that is a cool sketch; and Moe, that is just a stunning card! I am jealous that you manage to pull off so many styles so effortlessly!

I was so annoyed that I missed the last sketch of last month - doh! It was the CAS one too! I'm still going to use it though

And Amber, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you've put up details about the january deadline

I had one of those days yesterday too - I was so glad when 6pm came around and I could stop working!!

Oh, glad you remembered! There will be an inspirational photo each month, but alternating through the month. So watch for it this coming Week #2! Then in March, it will be Week #3, April Week #4, etc.

A really neat sketch and a beautiful sample! Here is mine for week 1.

So sorry about that! I've fixed all the oopsies

Obviously I was sloppy and in a hurry to get this post up, haha! Thanks for letting us know Sian!!

Lynn, love your card, it's gorgeous!!!

LOVE the sketch this week! I had to play along (well, that, and I was going through VLV withdrawls). Lots of corners and not a round side in sight, well, other than the sentiment. But I can handle that! My kind of layout!

Here's what I came up with- Baby Girl

nlsmith68 · 02-03-2013, 06:17 PM

Fun sketch. I had to shake up those clean straight rectangles a bit, so I used a zipper die to hide the rest of my sentiment "{no matter what}".

Love Always

Tangerine Dream · 02-04-2013, 10:38 AM

Awesome sketch Amber! Can't wait to get started

Tangerine Dream · 02-04-2013, 03:35 PM

Here is my card for this week's challenge. I'm not sure if I'll get anymore done for this month as we're heading off for a warm holiday soon. I guess that is a good reason not to get all the challenges done

Sian · 02-12-2013, 08:34 AM

Hello there!

Here is my card for this weeks' sketch - thank you Amber!

This is already on its' way to my brother who will hopefully like it!

I loved this sketch, Amber! It has been so sunshine-y here lately (at last!), that I just had to make a happy card.

This is the first time I have done a verve sketch like this without lots of layering. My blue is the colour card can be found on the same post as my week 2 card.
