Hi everyone!! Today marks the final day of sneak peeks for Verve! All of the sets shown this week will be available for purchase after the Release Party over at Splitcoaststampers tonight! I hope you can join us!
Okay, so I have two cards to show you today that use my most favorite set from this release, Love's Flower. This set is gorgeous and it contains one of Julee's extraordinary flowers! So sit back, relax and read on....
Have you ever made a card and LOVED it? Well, that's how I feel about this card! LOL! It came together so easily! See the quote? That quote was contributed to this set my Little Ol' Me! I was a huge fan of the Peanuts comics when I was younger and wrote a letter to Charles Schulz and he wrote back to me! Well, it was a generic letter that was signed by him, but a letter nonetheless! LOL!
I stamped the quote in Dark Chocolate Ink on Vintage Cream cs and cut it out with Circle Nesties. Before removing it from the die, I sponged some Spring Moss ink around the edges working my way in. The DP is Turning a New Leaf dp from Papertrey Ink. The flower was paper pieced with the same patterned paper. A little stitching, some adhesive pears and ribbon and the card was complete!
This second card uses the other quote from this set along with the flower. I LOVE that flower! The sketch is this week's Mojo Monday Sketch, Mojo121. I stamped the sentiment in Basic Gray (SU!) on a piece of Basic Grey Sugar Rush DP and colored the LOVE in with a red Copic markder. The flower was cut out a few times after coloring with Copics and popped up for dimension. A little ribbon and adhesive gems and I called it quits!!
Thank you so much for stopping by! I hope to see you tonight at the Verve Party! Have a great day....
