Sankari, this is just a wonderful sketch! I know I will use it again. I chose some fun, bright colors, beacause you always bring such delightful colorful creations to share with us. Thanks you! Here is my card:
“If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning... Face it, friend. He is crazy about you!” - Max Lucado
Luanne your card is so beautiful!! - love that bunny and paper pieced eggs!! Thank you for your kind words - you are so sweet!!! It was fun to party with you last night!!
Thank you for not including any skewed panels, Sankiri (((hugs))) Fabulous samples Divas! Better get cracking as I have two left to do and still recovering from the hunts at the party last night LOL!

I just used the one word from the stamp in the set Feel the Sun...SUNSHINE for a sentiment...make that a word punch.
Thanks to Sankari for this inspirational sketch.
Here's mine. The Liquid Pearls are all for you, Sankari!
I wanted the card to have a homespun look. I intended it for a mother's day card. Operation Write Home is still in need of mother's day cards for the troops to send home. Gotta get it in the mail today!
My choice of papers and sentiment for these cards got me to thinking that Verve really should put out a masculine set of stamps featuring old fashioned pocket-watches. I'm pretty sure I have not seen one done by Verve yet.....
P.S.
For some reason I can't upload my cards to my gallery. I keep getting the photo is too large message. I don't think I am doing any thing different from what I've always done. Help!
