This is my second post for today. To check out the Paper Pretties Sneak Peek scroll down to the next post....
The Verve Project Parade is in full swing on the Verve Blog and today my project is featured. The theme for this month's project was "It's a Girl Thing: Celebrating the women in our lives"
I knew I would make a project that celebrated my "Mom" friends. My "Mom" friends are three women I met when my youngest daughter started kindergarten. We hit it off on the first day of school and remain great friends today. My girls trust them and I know I can count on them if I need ANYTHING!
I made three Rounded Wrap Up boxes from Lauren Meader's Timeless Templates line. These templates are so fantastic! I used three different color schemes (all Papertrey Ink), but the design is the same. Each box is made with Kraft cardstock and the colors are Hibuscus Burst, Lemon Tart and Summer Sunrise. I used one of Verve's newest and most beautiful sets, Because Of You. I stamped the silhouette flowers in the coordinating ink over the sentiment. To give a softer look to the Hibiscus Burst silhouette, I stamped it off once before stamping over the sentiment. All of the cut out flowers have rhinestone gems in the center and each flower was brushed with Angel Wings Shimmerz.
This is a close up of the Summer Sunrise box. Don't you love all of these colors with Kraft? I do!!
Well thank you so much for stopping by!! I hope you have a good one!!
