Verve's 2nd Anniversary Sketch


Click on one of the pictures to see how Sparkly the Jackpot sign is..




I totally loved this sketch when I saw it on Julee's Verve splitcoast post. We really love to play games at our house and with friends. This card is so funny to me. I have never pull a handle on a slot machine in my life.. Basically I just don't gamble.. When we were in Vegas It was so sad to see people sitting at the slots with there credit cards on a retractable string inserted into the slot machines. Isn't the whole inserting the coin into the machine part of the fun?? What do I know. Maybe they should make an in home machine that gives you chocolate.. If you are meant to have chocolate... JACKPOT it's your luck day. If you don't win you have money to buy the chocolate that you store inside.

My Sweet Grandmother that just passed away LOVED to go to Wendover Nevada with her Senior group.. She would always give her self a budget of like $20 and get so excited when she would come home $20-$100 dollars richer in Nickels... She would have loved this cards...ahhh that makes me sad thinking about that...

Come back later today and I will post another Mojo Sketch..
Thanks for stopping buy.
Hugs
Brooke


All supplies used on this card are STAMPIN' UP except Ice stickles...
