Viva la Verve x 2 -- Birthdays!

Hello! I have a couple of cards to show you today.. I used the first 2 Viva la Verve sketches for April. All the details are in the Verve Splitcoast forum here (for week 1) and here (for week 2).

I checked the teacher birthday list and realized that there are 6 teacher birthdays in the next 10 days, so you may see a birthday theme here for a little while :)


My first card uses Circular Sayings. I stamped my sentiment, cut it out with a circle punch and popped it over a tatted flower (made by my SIL, Mary!). I added pearls to both cards (from Pizzazz Aplenty).


My second card uses Happy Days. Both cards use a lot of the same supplies (patterned paper - The Girls' Paperie Vintage Whimsy, colors and Sizzix embossing folder).

Here's a look at both sketches:
