After a fabulous day of sneak peeks, challenges and set reveals, we’re topping off our Spring Fling Blog Party with a blog hop featuring the four new sets and five Plain Janes that just released from Verve. If you arrived here by way of Amy Sheffer’s blog, then you’re on the right track, if you just happened along, be sure to head back to Julee’s blog for the start of the hop.
And to celebrate our new release, we’ve got a very special treat hidden along the hop. One lucky commenter will win our entire release! So as you’re hopping along, be sure to give a little shout out in the comments if you see something that makes you smile. The lucky winner will be announced Tuesday evening, {March 10} on the Verve Blog.
Here is my card using one of the new Plain Janes, Psalm 84:11. First I brayered and sponged a piece of white cardstock using Crushed Curry, Pumpkin Pie and Dusty Durango ink. Then I embossed the cardstock using the Friends Forever Cuttlebug folder. I sanded it to make the flowers stand out by making them a little white. I added some Cinnamon Stickles to the sentiment for a finishing touch.
Thanks for hopping by! Next up on the hop is Teresa Kline!
And in case you get distracted or there’s a hiccup in the chain, head on over to the Verve Blog for the full list of hops.
