Welcome back to Day 2 of Verve's June 2015 Spotlight Hops! The Verve Divas and special guests are back for another day of spotlighting the new release! Everything previewed this week will be available in the Verve online store on Friday, 6/19. So come hop along with us and see what's new at Verve!
If you have come here from Laurie's blog you are right on track. If you just happened upon the Hop, today's hop list is a bit lower down or you can head over to Verve Blog for the full Hop List.
Today's spotlight is shining on the Deco Borders set illustrated by Chaitali Narla.
It was great fun creating this black and white background with one of the images from Deco Borders. Love the dramatic and graphic print it created - perfect for a masculine card. I added the sentiment and framed it with another image from the set and then added a pop of colour with the blue stars to keep the masculine theme going. The sentiment was getting lost in the wash so I underlined it with black half pearls to draw your eye to it.
