Amazing Heart

Happy Friday!  It's almost the weekend and I'm so glad!  Fridays bring another Viva la Verve! sketch and this week's is the final sketch for July!  Play along with all four of our July sketches for a chance to win our entire Anni-VERVE-sary release!  I may be a little biased, but word on the street from the Divas is that this is their favorite release yet!  So come play along!  Deadline to enter is Thursday, July 28.


Laurie is our hostess with the mostess this week and she designed this darling sketch.  I just love hearts and knew exactly what I wanted to do as soon as I saw her sketch.  I got this new Splendid paper from Authentique this week and couldn't wait to make a plaid heart using the Tim Holtz die.  The sentiment flag is cut out, folded over and stitched, then I tied the dream string (from Pizzazz Aplenty) through it, and wrapped around my label 16 and heart piece.  The sentiment is from the new Small Phrases set and I accented with some liquid pearls and bling.

And there you have it.  I've got a super busy day and a fabulous weekend lined up, so I'm just going to leave you with the enabler's list.  Don't forget to check out the Diva Dare Challenge (which this card qualifies for) to pair just a sentiment with pretty paper.  And there's still time to get your entries in for this week's Mojo Monday 200 celebration challenge, to be eligible for the prize drawings!

Enabler's List:
Stamps: Small Phrases (Verve Stamps)
Paper: Splendid (Authentique), Early Espresso, Vellum cs (SU!), Cream
Ink: Early Espresso (SU!), Antique Linen, Vintage Photo (Ranger)
Accessories: Labels 16 Nestabilities (Spellbinders), Heart Movers & Shapers Die (Tim Holtz), Sentiment Flag die (Lil' Inker Designs), Scallop trim punch (SU), flatback rhinestones and only olive dream string (Pizzazz Aplenty), liquid pearls (Ranger), sewing machine

Oh, Julee! This is so pretty! I love the pink and green color combo and the brown mat for the label shape just makes such a gorgeous frame.

Love the plaid heart and how it pops against the other colours. Of course I swoon when green and brown are on a card LOL! Fabulous take on the sketch.

Love the plaid heart and that tag is TDF!! You enabled me a while ago on the Authentique dp- waited to order and then, got all 4 (lucky me that I purchased before I saw this card and you enabled me to get some more, LOL!!) BTW... from what I read-you are absolutely already ready to take hip hop lessons!!
