More September Release Verve Challenges!

For the September release, Verve celebrated the release with some great challenges leading up to the party last Friday night! I only got the chance to complete four of the five issued challenges, so I thought that I would share with you the other two I created! I try to play along with as many challenges as I can when it comes to Verve, I love all the various types of challenges they issue within their forum on SCS. This first card I created based on a color combination challenge. This challenge was to create a card using the colors of Orange Yellow, Cream, Deep Brown and Grey Green. I had so much fun with this one, in fact I inked up two of my new stamp sets from last months release, both A Cup of Life and Bountiful Backgrounds and I really like how the distressing turned out on this one!

This challenge was a wonderful sketch that Julee created for us to use! I love sketch challenges, so this was certainly a challenge that I had to complete! I had a lot of fun with these colors, the light blue and light green always looks so nicely together, and I really wanted a bit of pop so I used Enchanted Evening ink from PTI for the blooms and the sentiment. I hope you have a wonderful Friday and you enjoyed the Verve creations for today!
