Verve October Release Retrospective Hop

Welcome to Verve's October Release Retrospective!  It's been a wonderful week of release celebration and the Divas and Guest Divas are back with one last look at the brand new release! Everything spotlighted is available to order in the Verve Store and is currently 20% off! Plus, we've got a sweet hop prize in store, so read on for more!

I can't put Verve's newly released Good Work set down!  So many uplifting verses and the images Wonderful too.  I chose this fabulous Romans 12:12 verse for my card, stamped the flourish and used a white gel pen to highlight it to tie in the white on the kraft tag.  A doily girlied things up a bit, and a  few butterflies and buttons added extra pops of colour.  Best part is the tag can be removed and used as a bookmark if you so choose.

    I'm right there with ya... can't put them down. Just served on a 72 spiritual retreat and my hubby made me a card to slip into my bag. These images were still fresh on my desk so obviously he grabbed them and used them :)... perfect!

    Love your precious card! I can think of a hundred gals who would just adore receiving it.

    Carry on picking up and inking up these uplifting sentiments, because you're creating stellar cards with them. The purple-pink-green combination is stellar with the kraft; each colour has more impact paired with the others. Soooo pretty!
