Hi Verve fans! Sorry about the song...it has been stuck in my head for days! *grin*
It's time once again for our monthly Diva Inspirations Hop. Today's the day you get to hop about and see what fresh ideas our Inspirations team has cooked up with some of our previously released sets! I know I just love dusting off a neglected set and using it in a new and different way, so I hope you find a little inspiration along the way today!
Plus there's a prize! Iif you leave a little comment love as you hop about to the blogs below, you just might win a $25 gift certificate to Verve! Sounds like something to put a spring in your step, don't ya think? Okay, let's have some fun and HOP to it!
Whew! That's a lot to say. Without further blabbing...here's my card:
My grandparents' 65th wedding anniversary was a few days ago, and we' are going up to Joplin for a little family shindig, so I knew I needed a card! I pulled out Love Story and the Lovely Marquee Die, and I chose the little background from Grateful Elegance to stamp on the blue. Everything was stamped in Versamark and heat embossed.
I added a doily and some text from a vintage dictionary, along with my linen thread and lace. The finishing touch was some glitter around the frame. I really hope they like it!
So...Julee let us know that, we've extended our Wishing for Spring Sale through April 4! Be sure to check out all the spring stamps and dies that are on sale for 15% off!
