Today's featured sets are Be Blessed, Sprightly Springs Die Set, and the Luke 1:45 Plain Jane.
Be Blessed is my favorite set of this release. No surprise there as you know I love flowers, all the more when they are Verve flowers with matching dies and coordinating leaf dies. Makes me swoon every time LOL!
I tripped across this tutorial on You Tube for making a "card in a box" and though I am not a project person, this one caught my attention as I was looking for something special to make for my mom's 80th birthday. I used both the solid and outline flowers from the set and cut them out with the coordinating Petal Point dies. The Sprightly Springs dies provided the leaves, and I tossed in a few hearts from the Heart Quartet die as well. From there, it was basically creating a bouquet from all the pieces. Sure hope she likes it as I had great fun making it!
My second card uses the Luke 1:45 Plain Jane. I just love Verve's Plain Janes!! I used some K & Company papers, the Banner Bundle die set, a touch of lace and some butterflies to showcase this fabulous verse.
