**Viva la Verve! We're BACK!!! January Week 1 {1/6/12}**
Hello out there! I am SOOOO EXCITED to be back with you lovely ladies! My move is complete (even if my house is still a bit of a disaster, lol!) my scrapbook room is set up, and I'm ready to roll! Only one problem...can't find my camera charger in all those boxes, lol! My iPhone picture didn't come out to well for this card, so it's a good thing a few of the lovely Diva's sent me samples to share with you! So are you ready for details?
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 (check for the due date below!) The winner will be announced on the next day and will win a $100 gift certificate to VERVE! 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 January, we'll have FOUR sketches! All FOUR cards must be uploaded to the VLVJan2012 gallery by midnight, CST on Thursday, February 2nd to be eligible to win this month's prize! Winner will be announced on February 3rd! GOOD LUCK!
Keywords for the entire month will be VLVJan2012 and Verve (if using Verve stamps).

If you're new to the gallery, here's a little info on how to add your cards to our gallery:
If you haven't uploaded your cards yet, just click the Upload a Card link in the left sidebar. Keep the default category as Member Galleries. Then follow the form to browse to the photo of your card on your computer, enter a title and description then click upload/submit. On the next screen it asks you for the ingredients of the card and also has a Keyword section. In this section type the keyword for this month's challenges... VLVJan2012. When you're done filling things out, click process. It takes a few minutes to show up in our challenge gallery but as long as you've got the correct keyword, your photo will eventually appear in the VLVJan2012 Gallery
If you've already uploaded your cards, you can edit the keywords by going to the photo in your gallery. In the bottom right corner under the information below the picture, there is an Edit Photo button. Click this, then in the Edit keywords section add the VLVJan2012 keyword and then click process. These changes take about 10 minutes or so to appear, but then your card should appear in our challenge gallery.

Great sketch Amber! Guess you didn't get my email a couple of days ago. Sorry! I'll need to double check which address I emailed and update my contact list.

I, for one, have been going through Verve withdrawal. Gotta get my fix! LOL. Thanks for the great sketch. Can't wait to find some time to play with my new stamps (I took good advantage of the sale and picked up some I've been wanting but kept getting pushed down on my priority list every time there was a new release!)
Loved the sketch and sooooo glad VLV challenges/sketches are back in action! All the wonderful cards created each week provides inspiration to keep coming back.

VLV challenges again - great. I missed out on the last couple of months in 2011 so this year I will try and keep up! I used this first sketch to start my 2012 Christmas cards growing and made 6 with it. They are quite simple but I hope you like them
I'm also so happy to have a little Viva La Verve back in the mojo department!! Here's a masculine Valentine for my hubby, Eric (who is doing GREAT in his remission, btw!)

Running a bit behind but so glad to have the sketches back! Thought I'd start on my Valentine's cards. I picked up a few of my long time wish list items at the end of the year sale, including To the Moon and Hundred Hearts, which I used here.
