Happy Anniversary and a Sketch For You To Try!




Happy Saturday!  It is the first Saturday of the month so it is time for another Sketch for You To Try!  Verve is the sponsor this month so Jen asked if some of the Verve divas wanted to play along.  Check out the link to find out how to win some Verve!

For my card I am using Verve's Love Story and I Heart U die set. I blended some patterns from MME paper pack.  I used a spellbinder's frame for the layers and  ink distressed and stitched all the panels.  I die cut my letters and added the bird images from Love Story.  I finished with a sentiment strip.   I have an anniversary coming up in a couple of weeks.  I am giving this one to my dh.  I know it has some pink in it, but that is okay.  Well, more than a little, but there are some blues too. 

As always thanks so much for stopping by!

Betty
