Happy Thursday, Verve fans! In just a few hours Verve Stamps will be releasing a plethora of new stamp sets, and the Divas have been showcasing the new sets for the last five days. You can find a list of participating Divas each day at the Verve Blog. Today ends the sneak peeks, and these amazing sets will be released TOMORROW after our Release Chat at the Verve Forum.
Today we are showcasing “Great Friend”. The 12-piece stamp set includes 3 sentiments, 6 flowers, and 3 leaf images. I stamped one of the solid flowers twice in Lavender Lace Ink, then stamped the outline of those flowers in Black Ink twice as well. I added a leaf to each end of the flower row, then added both Stickles and Rhinestones to the solid images. I pierced the edges of the top White Cardstock panel, then stamped the sentiment in Black Ink. I also sponged the edges large lavender panel with Lavender Lace Ink and a Sponge Dauber, then embossed the lavender horizontal panel with Cuttlebug’s Swiss Dots Embossing Folder. I created the wavy edge on the bottom of the card front using the EK Success Bracket Edger Punch. After adding tons of Dimensionals the card was complete.
Now let’s see what the other Divas have up their sleeves using this same set:
- Laurie Schmidlin
- Amy Sheffer
- Michelle Woerner
- Susan Liles
- Maureen Plut (Guest Diva)
- Sankari Wegman
