Hello, One thing I like about Summer is that I get the chance to play in some of the challenges that I am always admiring, but rarely get to join in on. Today I decided to play along with Freshly Made Sketches. I incorporated that challenge with my 30 Day Coloring Challenge-Day 3. I am so enjoying making CAS cards these days and this one is just that. I decided to get out my Copics and do minimal colors on this pretty flower from Verve and I like the way they turned out. Speaking of Verve, Julee Tilman has decided to close Verve after over a Decade of Heart and Dedication. I admire this lady more than she knows and instead of me getting all sappy over here and reiterating what she said, I have linked up her goodbye message for you to read. Let’s just say if it wasn’t for Julee, I wouldn’t be stamping or have the friendships I have today. I owe a great deal to her! So over the next month or so, you will be seeing a lot of Verve, as I want to pay tribute to her and her fabulous line of stamping products. My only regret on this card is that I should have re-stamped the flower in black as the images lost some of their luster. However, I probably would have totally screwed it up. LOL
This flower is Verve and from the set called One Person. The die Smile is from MFT.

Your blog reads like a breath of spring. So glad that you are able to spend so time each day coloring and that you are doing the 30 day coloring challenge. I love this card and that it is CAS. I don’t own a Verve stamp, but I am so happy that you got your start there. Because I am one of the ones that you met through crafting. Thank you Julee.
