Congrats!

Happy Friday!  Today I've got a little card to show you using this week's Viva la Verve! sketch. Tosh is the hostess this week, and she gave us a super fun tilty sketch that totally inspired me.

The other night, Mark was working on some hobby stuff and I needed to clear a space for him in my studio.  While I was cleaning up, I rediscovered this paper I ordered a few months ago and had never cut into.  I thought it would be perfect for my idea to add a little Flower Soft fur to the bear in the To the Moon set.  After coloring and cutting out the bear and papers, I added some vanilla ribbon ruffles, then found this fun star ribbon in my stash and decided it would be a perfect addition.  That gave me the idea for a little balloon, so I cut one of the stars from the ribbon, glued onto a german glass glitter star, then added a little linen thread for the balloon string.  I finished off with a few little buttons, because I've suddenly decided they're cool again!  LOL

That's all from me today!  Be sure to check out the sketch over in our forum.  And Laurie's kicking off our first Diva Dare challenge over on the Verve Blog!  Check it out and play along!!!

That's a darling card, Julee. I really like the colors. I'm not familiar with Flower Soft, though. I'll have to check that out!
