Verve Anniversary Release Challenge #5


I'm still in vacation mode and getting back into the swing of things after not stamping/creating for about ten days, so I took the easy road for this challenge and created a tag.  Not too much of a hardship though, as I love creating tags! 

Sorry about the dirt in the background.  Had to switch my photo spot to the front porch for good lighting late in the day and the dirt photo bombed my picture ;)

I used pink, silver and hearts because I had my daughter in mind when I made the tag.  She is a totally girly girl who loves pink -- unlike her mother LOL!  

It will most likely be attached to one of her birthday gifts or tucked into her lunch the first day of school as an encouragement and reminder that I love her and will be thinking of her (she is always stressed out the first day of school).

Four challenges down and one to go.   Back tomorrow with my CAS card (sneaking in under the deadline wire) and then it is party time over at the Verve Forum in the evening as Julee reveals all of Verve's fifth anniversary sets - yeah new Verve!!  Can't wait!  Have already claimed the upstairs computer as mine for the evening LOL!

 

What's In It? 
Paper:   Pretty in Pink, Rose Romance, Sparkly Silver 
Accessories:  Tag Die (MFT), Heart Border Punch (Martha Stewart), Heart Punch (Marvy), Crimper, 1/4" White Satin Ribbon, 5/8" Sheer Silver Ribbon, Crimper, Silver Half Pearl, Glue Dot, Dimensionals

Such a pretty tag, Marisa! Makes me think of a 'challenge' I learned of through Bearzi, called Pink Saturday. Check out this recent post for the info: http://howsweetthesound.typepad.com/my_weblog/2012/08/pink-saturday-august-18-2012.html

Haven't linked up there m'self yet, but I'll get around to it!

So romantic and sweet - what a wonderful tag. I think the rustic look in your bg brings out the sparkle in your heart so you did good on your choice of photo spots. So you have to stake a claim to the computer at home? I remember those days (I miss them). What a fun way to show your daughter you are thinking of her on the first day of school. Hugz!

superb Marisa, what a fabulous colour combo, all those hearts look brilliant together! :)

What an awesome tag! I'm sure your daughter will love it. Those hearts along the border are perfectly sweet. I'm with you...green is the way to go :) I think we're pretty unique in that love, though!
