Default **Viva la Verve! March 2011 Week 4 {3/18/11-3/24/11}**

Hi there everyone! It's Jackie here and I'm so excited to be hosting my first Viva La Verve challenge! I have a great sketch for you this week and some awesome inspiration from a few of the Diva's so I hope you can play along!

Details:
Every Friday, a Diva will post a sketch for your enjoyment. Your cards, using the sketches, must be uploaded by the last Thursday of the month. The winner will be announced on the next day and will win the ENTIRE next Verve stamp release! How awesome is that?! Just a reminder, Verve stamps are NOT required but we love to see you use them. Feel free to flip, rotate, resize, or otherwise alter the sketch as long as we can tell you USED the sketch!

For March, we'll have FIVE sketches! All five cards must be uploaded to the VLVMar2011 gallery by midnight, CST on Thursday, March 31st to be eligible to win this month's prize! Winner will be announced on April 1st! GOOD LUCK!

Keywords for the entire month will be VLVMar2011 and Verve (if using Verve stamps)


Here is this week's sketch:

Here are a few samples from Me and Diva's Maureen and Teresa! Thank you for the beautiful samples, ladies!

Love the sketch! The layers, the rounded corners, the "pennant/flag" tips...you even squeezed a scallop edge in there!

I paired the sketch with the Get Your Diva On challenge.
Thanks for looking!

I have no Verve stamps yet either. I've just begun my stamping/card making journey so I'm still growing my garden of stamps.
