TGIF!

Happy Friday everyone! It would be perfect here if it weren't raining, but I won't complain - not much! :)

I think that I forgot to share this card here. I got this cute Verve set, Cupcake Affair from my friend and fellow Prettie Girl, Jackie Rakoski and finally had a chance to ink it up! The sketch was from Julee Tillman for the last Verve release.

The dp and ribbon are Pink Paislee - isn't that ribbon perfect with the little cupcakes/! I used the little row of flowers stamp from the set to make the scalloped edge and did a bit of sewing around the edge of the card. The frosting on the cupcake is actually a piece of dp that was then coated in glitter.

Thanks for visiting! I hope you all enjoy a wonderful weekend!

Wild Hearts

I had some time this weekend to play with some new stamps I bought from the most recent Verve Visual release, Wild Thing. This is the first time I had bought from Verve (I know, what took me so long!?) and I was so happy with my little packet of goodies, all nicely packaged!

Since they are Julee's stamps I decided to use Julee's Mojo Monday #20 sketch card. I used the now retired, Cerise paper from SU! and even sponged the edges a bit a la Jana!

The second card is in a totally different direction! Bright and lots of color! The layout is from an old Cards magazine I had laying around. That one was done with a snow theme but I thought it would look great with hearts too! For the large heart outline, I stamped it with Versamark then used Heat & Stick powder and then Dazzling Diamonds. It looks pretty and sparkly!
