lots of cards before the big move!!!!

Hey there ladies!! I made a couple cards before I had to pack all my stuff up for the big move( only 2 days away!!!!!!!!!).

So I was trying to go out of the box and not just Unity, so I checked out the Verve forum on SCS and decided to participate in the challenges there. :) So I did this card for the second challenge of them month. You have to use the sketch and the *twist* which was no DP!!!

The next Verve challenge was to use the sketch provided, and the *twist* which was the card had to be monochromatic. I don't think I have ever made a monochromatic card before this one! And I absolutely love it! :)

Next is a card I messed up on. hehe.. so this card was originally going to be my Verve challenge that was supposed to be monochromatic.. but I forgot that little detail. oops. I used the sketch.. but used lots of colors. lol So I just kept going with it for Jeff's Uncle's B-Day yesterday.

And finally the last card I made was using the Verve sketch, but this time I didn't use the twist on purpose. Instead the card was made for the Etsy Inspired Challenge from Ashley. The jewelry shop this week was gorgeous!!!! I loved all the pieces there! They were all so girly and feminine which is what I went for with this card! :)


So that's it for now! :) I probably won't be able to post again until after the move for the exception of my post about the Etsy blog hop)! I will be settled in just in time for the big blog hop from the Etsy Inspired girls! :) yay! I can't wait!

Thanks for stopping by,

hip hop hangover

Alright, it is another hip hop hangover! :) I didn't get to create a card for the challenges yesterday, so this morning I made a card using the sketch challenge Amber gave us this week. This card is also for Ashley's etsy inspired challenge. I was inspired by the purple tu-tu! It was sooo cute. So I hope you like the card. I love the paper used. It is from the euphoria line by Basic Grey!
