Welcome to the last day of our Anni-VERVE-sary challenges! Amy and I are challenging you to create whatever you love to do in your crafting time, as long as it isn’t a card. That’s right, we are challenging you to create….

Details!
We’re celebrating 5 wonderful years of Verve and are so excited to share our new release with you! To kick the party off, every day this week we’ll post a fun new challenge for you. Be sure to take a close look at our samples, because you just might see some super sneaky peeks of what’s releasing later this month! You’ll have until 5PM Eastern on Friday, August 24 to complete the challenge and upload your creations with the provided keywords. We’ll draw a random winner from each challenge gallery to win a special prize package of new stamps and dies! Winners will be announced at our release party that night (you don’t need to be present to win).
But that’s not all! Play along in all 5 of the challenges and then link your creations up in the Release Champions thread for a chance to win our entire new release (a $300+ value)! To be eligible, creations must be new (posted 8/13 or later) and you must make 5 total projects (no combining of challenges, please). Verve stamps are not required but we sure do love to see ‘em!!!
This challenge's awesome sample artists (who RAWK if you ask me!)
Teresa has some awesome tags!
Amy has some sweet gift bags!
Maureen has some adorable bookmarks!
Thanks for the samples to get us started ladies!

Janelle...that box is just the sweetest, but the most important question I have is...are there candies inside? I can't believe I haven't had a yummy photo shoot yet...but there's still a week left! ;)
Here's my PURSE BOX minus the yummies (none on hand but plans are to fill it up for a gift real soon)!

Here's my second project...a birthday gift tag using the tiny Verve cupcake on a flattened bottle cap.

just take out the "*" asterisks I added after the first bracket...I had to put that in so you could see the code...otherwise it would turn up as a linked word...I'm not an expert, but that's what I would do...
btw, I ended up making two batches of these bags. The first six were rainbow colored and the images were goofed up-- hard to see. I found out that ink behaves differently on bond weight paper. Fades fast and blurs, so I assembled and stamped more bags using brighter, better inks.

Those bags are awesome!

When you said that the GC inspired you... you really meant it Moe! That's awesome how you matched them all with cardstock and inks!
what's really sweet about this is the twins spent Wednesday morning in the studio making cards with me and used some of the new sets! Will have to post what they made at the release party. They had a ball! And I think they like their bookmarks even more now that they know what goes into hand crafting

Oh how sweet! I can't wait to see them!

What a fun challenge! I decorated some tiny 3x3 canvases with a few of my favorite inspirational sentiments from the Words of Wisdom set. Plan to hang them together as a little art display in my craft room.
Yay!! Day 5 is still on page one of threads! I was starting to think I was the only person who hadn't completed all these fabulous challenges
Here's my notes/note holder for this challenge. I think I'm going to use it as a gift for someone for Christmas (I know - the dreaded 'C' word and it's still "summer" - sorry guys!)
It was nice to make something a little different, so thank you for prompting me to make a project I've been meaning to do for a while
I went with a bookmark for my ABC. I am not sure I am going to give this away but if I don't I guess I should wait to give it to myself until Dec!!! LOL
