Verve and World Card Making Day


Welcome to the World Card Making Day edition of the Verve Diva Inspirations Hop!  Along the hop this month we're debuting FIVE brand new plain janes that just hit the store today, so grab a drink and hop along to see a fresh mix of old and new Verve and maybe even win a prize! You can find out all the prize details and see the full reveal of the new plain janes over on the Verve Blog today.
It wouldn't be World Card Making Day unless I played along in a couple of challenges, now would it?  My world card making day card is not want I would like for it to be.  I have been working a lot and I went away for the weekend;  I felt very rushed, so I did not meet my standards on today's card...lol.  I adore the new stamps that Julee released for World Card making Day, so sweet.  I have used the adorable scroll pattern at the bottom and one of the sentiment stamps.  Be sure to check out the new release at the Verve Store.

I think your card is very pretty. Love how you stamped the border across the bottom, and the neutral colors look great. TFS

Don't be so hard on yourself! This card is a beauty. The paper, the lace, and the stamps look great together, and it is amazing to see how they just pop out of the inspiration photo! It's always a treat to visit your blog. Happy card making!

Love how you used the PJ to create the BG pattern. Lovely pops of black against the neutral BG too. No worries about the standards, your cards are always lovely and I would love just one of your creative genes :)

Oh my this is so soft and elegant. The DP and that gorgeous lace -wow- they are perfect with the DP you created using the new Medallion PJ. Those buttons look like they were made for this card.
