Winter New Release Spotlights: Day 5

Today is release day and we have something VERY exciting to show you today!  We hope you'll join us tonight at the Release Party thread at 9pm Eastern! 



Now, onto the exciting part!  You've seen a couple of new items this week at Verve, the Sweet Scallop Tag and the Vintage Oval Frame.  Well, Verve is now introducing A Cut Above, new coordinating dies!!!  Both dies were scheduled to be released tonight, but there was a manufacturing error with the Vintage Oval Frame die, so only the Sweet Scallop Tag die will be released tonight! 


I used the Glad Tidings set for my card along with Mojo Monday Sketch 162.  First I stamped the gorgeous snowflakes in black on the Kraft paper for the background.  Then I stamped and die cut the tag and spritzed it with some gold glimmer mist.  The brad in the center of the tag snowflake was coated with gold embossing powder to make it gold (it was silver). 

So, check out what the rest of the Divas have to show you using this fabulous new die and I hope to see you later tonight!  Thanks for stopping by!

Hi, I like the elegant, dark and yet feminine look to this card. I also like the fact that as sutble as it is, you've added texture to the black paper under the tag. Nice, very nice!
