From the uber-talented Diva, Charmaine:
I am SUPER excited for this Verve release. I get excited for every release, really, but I especially love this one because there is a lot of sunshine this release! I have loved previous sentiments like "Hey there, Sunshine!" and this set, Let It Shine, is all about sunshine! Wonderful "sunny" sentiments accompanied by suns of different sizes and designs make this a must-have set in my opinion! For my card, I chose to use one of the sun images stamped twice, cut out and layered. I used one of the smaller images to create sunflowers and a scene. Some faux stitching, Stardust Stickles and jute provided the perfect finishing touches for this happy card!

From Diva.....ME! :)

Month after month, Julee's designs bring a smile to my face and sunshine to my soul. Gorgeous fonts and phrases, and whimsical-yet-elegant images that show her unique and impeccable sense of style. I started with a Kraft Cardstock base, then created a mountain scene by tearing a piece of Kraft Cardstock and sewing it to a piece of patterned paper from the Love Me Do collection by My Mind's Eye. I stamped the large and small suns in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, then colored each with Copic Sketch Markers. I added some Crystal Stickles to the larger image for some sparkle, and attached Silver Brads to the corners of the focal panel. The sentiment was stamped in the same black ink, the suns were cut out, and attached to the panel using Dimensionals.

Stayed tuned for one more challenge at 7:00 pm! Be sure to jump on over to the SCS Forum @ 7:00 Mountain for our Spring Fling Chat where you will see more sneak peeks and be able to chatter with the Divas!

Can't wait to see you there!

Spring Fling: Sneak Peek 3 Feel The Sun

Good afternoon Verve peeps, this is Teresa and I have the privilege of peeking the Feel The Sun set. Jen del Muro has brought to you this fabulous card below. I adore the colors and dimension on the flower...wow! Here is more in Jen's own words.

I'm guessing that many of you feel the same as me...Spring, get here already! The new releases from Verve just put me in the mood for Easter and warmer spring weather. Of course, in North Texas spring means lots of rain and crazy storms, but I won't bother thinking too much of those right now. I hope that you all are enjoying all the sneak peeks. I love all the creations that the fellow DT members have come up with. My card uses the Feel The Sun set and I just love this sentiment. It's perfect for just letting someone you know that you are thinking of them and care. Enjoy the rest of the peeks and have fun at the release party! Hope you always feel the sun from both sides!

It has been a long cold winter and Julee has brought some fabulous new stamp sets to get you feeling energetic and excited. Here is my peek of the set Feel The Sun, I adore the wildflowers in this set. I paired the flowers in this card with the sunshine verse. There is nothing more beautiful than a field full of wildflowers and the sun brightly shining. I distressed and stitched on this card, added a butterfly and twill ribbon.

I know you will not be disappointed with the full release, I hope that you can find time to join in on the challenges. I always enjoying gazing at everyone's creations! Enjoy the sunshine!

Spring Fling: Sneak Peek 2 Big Wish

Hey there Verve fans! Jen Tapler here with another Sneak Peek for ya. Aren't you having fun with all this eye candy and these awesome challenges!? Today Michelle and I are sharing some Birthday cards with you using the new Big Wish set - a set of 14 stamps that will knock your socks off! Julee always amazes me with her knack of matching the perfect font with her sentiments and she definitely doesn't disappoint in this new set that includes 13 different birthday themed sentiments of varying sizes, each in a unique Verve-alicious font! Take a look at the cards Michelle and I created with this fun new set:

From Diva Michelle Woerner:


Hi everyone! First let me say, I LOVE THIS SET! I asked (ok, practically begged) Julee for a Birthday Sentiment stamp set awhile ago and am MORE than thrilled with this. I love how the sentiments are in different sizes and fonts to perfectly match any project you have. And the cake? Gorgeous! This will be my "go-to" set for birthday cards from now on!

My card uses the Mojo128 sketch with the gorgeous cake image. I colored the cake with copic markers and added stickles and glitter pen accents for some extra sparkle. I added 2 Zva Creative blossoms in the corner. The sentiment is one of 13 in the set!!"

From Diva Jen Tapler:
I was in need of a birthday card for a fun neighbor girl who is turning 8 yrs old this weekend and this stamp set arrived just in time!! The hardest part about making this card was deciding which sentiment to use!! For papers, I used some fun printed digi papers from the Cottontail kit by Libby Weifenbach (Sweet Shoppe Designs). I finally went with the "Enjoy your day" sentiment because of its offset-to-the-right alignment, which worked well with how I wanted to position the glittery chipboard number 8. I just love the variety of sentiments in this set, and although the majority of them are birthday themed, there are a few like this one that would work for other occasions as well!

Spring Fling: Sneak Peak 1 Easter Joy

Get ready for a fun filled day of peeks and challenges Verve Fans!! Tosh here, and I'm thrilled to share the first peek with you along with Laurie. We get the distinct privilege of sharing Easter Joy with you. This set comes with 7 images including beautifully crafted eggs, charming fonts and a sweet flower and butterfly.

This first card was designed by the ultra talented Laurie:


I am SOOOO eggcited about these new stamps!! Whimsical and elegance...all with Julee's signature style, what more can a girl ask for? I really adore all of the images in this set, but the wreath is definitely my favorite (I love wreaths)! I kept the color scheme simple and Spring-y with soft pastels and crisp white. I had to add a bit of sparkle to the eggs...I mean, all eggs should have a bit of bling, right? :-) I tied it all up with some layered ribbon and pearls!

______________________________________________________________




Here's my card. I chose to use the egg border on a CAS card. I stamped the egg image twice and colored them with Copics. Quick and easy, yet elegant thanks to Julee's beautiful artistry. I love each beautifully detailed egg in this border image.
