Welcome to Day 5, the last day of Verve's September 2013 Spotlight Hops! If you have come here from Christyne's blog you are right on track. If you just happened up on the Hop, you can follow the list below to get caught up. Everything previewed this week will be available in the Verve online store today!!
Today's featured set is Rain or Shine as well as the newest ribbon collection called Autumn Elements. I have always wanted an umbrella stamp and this one is so much fun to work with.
I pulled out some old Stampin' Up papers for this card and paper pieced the umbrella. Since I haven't managed to sneak in the Award Banner die yet, I added it to the card along with a row of half pearls. Sorry about the bright orange sun (photoshop made it really bright LOL)! A bit of twine, some bling and this fabulous sentiment finished things off.
