January 2013 Diva Inspiration Hop

Welcome to our January Diva Inspirations Hop!  Today the Divas are dusting off some Verve favorites and putting on our monthly hop to inspire you with a fresh new spin on the stamps in our stash! So grab a drink and hop along as we share a little Verve with you! There's a great little prize involved, too! A random commenter on one of the hops will win a $30 gift certificate to VERVE, so be sure to leave a little love in the comment section as you hop about! You can find out all the prize details over on the Verve Blog today.  I have used one of my favorite Verve sets and dies...luv the "I Heart U Die" set, so fun!  I have added distressing, stitching, and sweet embllies to give my card a shabby feel.  Be sure to comment on all the divas blogs, you could win free Verve!  Have a wonderful weekend....enjoy!
