Welcome back to Day 2 of Verve's April Release Spotlight Hops! The Verve Divas and special guest are back for another day of spotlighting our new release! Everything previewed this week will be available to order in the Verve online shop on Tuesday, July 10.
Today we're sharing our first projects featuring the Hope Lifts stamp set and coordinating Lifted Hope Die Set.
If you have come here from Laurie's blog you are right on track. If you just stumbled upon the hop, you can check the hop list below to get caught up.
Today's set has some wonderful sentiments and I paired one with the hot air balloon (love that there is a balloon die!) which I coloured bright yellow - I have spring on my mind {grin}! I also used the small Lacy Trim die - love the two size options! I added a few clouds for a "floating in the sky feeling" and finished things off with some twine.
