Verve April Diva Inspirations Hop


Welcome to Verve's April Diva Inspirations Hop. It's the 5th of the month and that means it's hopping time! If you've come from Marisa's blog, you're in the right place!  This month we've got a fabulous challenge that's sure to put a spring in your step! So in addition to a comment prize hidden along the hop, you can play along with the challenge and link up your creation for a chance to win another prize!

Our April challenge is Chic Chevrons:

Chevrons are the new polka-dots! Get groovy and use this popular pattern somewhere on your creation. Whether you draw inspiration from the graphic or zig-zag off on your own, just show us some chic chevrons!

For my card, I used the Chevron Love set from Verve.   The papers are from the Here & Now  Collection from Echo Park.  I die cut the butterfly using the All Aflutter Die Set and then stamped the butterfly.  The sentiment was stamped and embossed in white on black cardstock.

Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines.  Next on today's hop is Janelle!!

Very cool how you divided the card with the patterned papers and left the white to spotlight the butterfly.
