I hope so, because you're going to be able to GET some new Verve on Friday!!!!!!!!!! w000t! It's been a couple months since we've had a new release and I know you guys are all comping at the bit to see what's coming! I know you're going to love this release, it's so sweet! Today, we're spotlighting a couple sets. The first one is Lucky Ducky, a super cute set with little ducky's and some sweet sentiments, and a new Plain Jane called Hope Perches. I have a project made using each of them, so lets hop to it!
My first card uses a couple of the ducks from Lucky Ducky!
I really wanted this to be a St. Paddies day inspired card, because of the "lucky" sentiments, but couldn't find any really good St Paddies day papers! I settled for a couple greens and yellows from the Modern Homemaker paper pack from October Afternoon!
I stamped the middle duck once on the white cardstock and then again on the polka dot paper. I paper-pieced the middle duck, I just think he looks FABULOUS in polka dots;) The sentiments in this set really "quack me up" and I think you'll agree that this set is a MUST HAVE!
Okay, next up is the Hope Perches Plain Jane!
I stamped the PJ on a label cut using the Classy Label die by Verve and then sponged Creamy Brown ink around the edges. The papers are from Reflections by Prima, don't you love them? They really work well with this sentiment! I added a bunch of lace, twine, a doily (PTI's parisian lace doily die), and did a lot of sponging!
Okay, that's probably enough chitchat. Here's the official hop list for today.
On your mark, get set.... HOP! :)
On your mark, get set.... HOP! :)

Both cards are wonderful, Amber! Love your dotted duck (LOL). And great way to work that paper in from Prima. I have some sheets like that from Webster's Pages and couldn't figure out what to do with them to get the images in on a such a small palette. Thanks for the inspiration!

Two gorgeous cards... I can't quite decide which I like better. I agree, the sentiments are very appropriate for St. Patrick's Day, so I love the green in the first card and the rows of pearls are lovely. I really like the wildflower journal style of the 2nd card.
Amber these cards are TOTALLY amazing. You've brought out the whimsy fun of Lucky Ducky and pure gorgeousness with the Plain Jane.
Beautiful cards, darling Amber! The paper pieced ducky is simply adorable and I love the papers you used...and highlighted marvelously with that fab design!

Really like both your cards. The ducky one is so "sun shiny" cheerful. Reminds me of spring and the hope card is very shabby chic with that lace circle. So pretty.

Both card are amazing but I really like the second card for the vintage look.
