**This is my 2nd post for today! Please scroll down or click HERE to see my MFT Sketch #15 sample! Thanks:)**
Welcome to day 2 of the Verve Stamps Spotlights! We're counting down to release day by sharing sneak peeks of the AMAZING sets being released on Friday!
You are going to simply ADORE the images and dies being shown today. Seriously my favorite. release. ever.
For my card here, I used images from the new set "Bloom and Grow" and the new Floral Circles dies! I kind of wanted to create a topiary scene with the flower images and matching dies, so this definitely had to be a long and skinny card. I cut the shapes out with the dies first and then stamped the blooms in Versamark ink and heat embossed with clear detail embossing powder and topped the blooms off with some buttons and twine! I stamped some smaller flowers and one of the leaves from the set in a light pink and turquoise ink. The flowers are stacked in the basket from "Chicks Rule" and I added some felt grass (using MFT's Fresh Cut Grass die). This is a really simple card, but I think it's just right:)
I have one more card to share using the same set and floral circles dies, PLUS the new FANTASTIC Elegant Leaves die!
Again, a pretty simple card, but it really gets an added boost with those new dies, doncha think? The Elegant Leaves die will be on every card on my blog, from here on out. Fair warning, lol! Isn't it GORGEOUS? Paired with the matching leaves stamp in the Bloom and Grow set, it's the perfect combination:) I also used the super adorable Sweet Scallop Tag die. Steel dies are seriously the best thing since stamps:) The "Happy Mother's Day" and "Grandma" stamps are from another set we're spotlighting tomorrow, so be sure to check back for more on that fun set!
Thanks so much for stopping by today! Here's your blog hop list for the day, happy hopping:)
