New Digi Sets from Verve

 photo VerveJan2018digis.jpg

Julee has created three new Verve digi sets and they are loads of fun! Quick and easy card, which uses this wonderful sentiment from the Love From Me set.  So versatile as you can use it for so many occasions: birthday,  Anniversary, Valentine's Day, boyfriend, girlfriend, son, daughter, grandparent etc.  I know I will be using it tons!  I adore the  large font and of course, the chance to make a Valentine's Day card with hearts on it ♥

I paired the sentiment with the Wavy Hearts die set and this fun Echo Park heart paper.  I crimped the pink heart for some dimension, though it is hard to see, and added a few buttons to give it a little something, something.  Think I will save it and give it to my daughter when she is in the middle of mid-terms to encourage her, remind her we love her and that we are are blessed to have her as our child.  Can't wait to make another card using these fun sets!

Have a blessed day and thanks for popping by.

Viva La Verve Sketch - January 2018

 photo VLVJan2018pic.jpg

Was setting up this post and realized it has been over a month since I have posted - my apologies!  And Happy New Year to everyone!!    After such a busy and stressful year last year, our family literally shut the world out for two weeks over Christmas and it ended up carrying over for a few more weeks into the New Year.  Glad to say, the time off/away did wonders and I am ready to face all 2018 brings our way.

Sure felt good to get inky again and what better way to create than to use a Viva La Verve sketch and some Verve Stamps.  Still miss Mojo Monday so this is a good filler.

Haven't made any Valentine's Day/heart cards for a while so it was the perfect excuse.  Pulled out Stronger Love for the sentiments and the Heart Quartet , Wavy Hearts and  Scalloped Trim Trio dies for the plethora of hearts on the card - can you tell I love hearts {grin}!  Heck just realized even the paper has hearts on it - oh my!  Now that I look at the card, I realize I put the bow on the wrong side - serves me right for not making a card for so long lol.

Would love to have you join us over on the Viva La Verve blog.  Simply create a card using the sketch and add it to the link up for a chance to win some Verve!  

Wishing you all a fabulous 2018 and I look forward to creating and posting again :)
