Getting the Mojo going

Published February 19, 2011 | By andreasscraps

I just love the sketches from the Verve Stamps Team! Every Monday is a great sketch then every Friday on SCS, there’s another one for Viva la Verve!

Let me share how I used the sketches. I was coloring some Michelle Perkett Studio images this past weekend at Stampfest while I demo’d Copic markers at the Marco’s Paper booth. I also HAD to add some markers to my collection in the RV category – I needed more pinks!

Join us this week at the Your Choice blog challenge on Michelle Perkett Studio Challenge Blog! You have until Monday afternoon!

Thanks for looking and thanks to Michelle for having me on her Design Team for the last 6 months. It’s been truly a FUN ride! I can’t wait for the next 6 months!!
