Welcome to our October 2013 Spotlight Hops! We’re so excited to preview Verve’s newest stamp sets and dies with you! Over the next few days, the Divas will be shining their Verve spotlights on a different set each day, so stay tuned for a fun series of inspirational hops… and PRIZES, too! Everything previewed this week will be available in the Verve online store Friday night, 10/25.
Today I’m sharing a card using Chevron Love. This stamp set is WONDERFUL. You are just going to love it. It coordinated with two previously released Verve dies – Jotted Heart and Wavy Hearts. It also coordinates with a new die set being released Friday called Heart Quartet Die Set. I’ve used all three on my card.
My card is what I like to call Rustic and Simple, lol. I think it fits me a bit better than Clean and Simple, lol. I just can’t seem to keep my hands off the distress tool but I love lots of white space too.
This card is a birthday card for my mom. Her birthday was yesterday and this one seems to fit her perfectly too. 🙂 Here are all the details:
Stamps:Â Chevron Love (Verve)
Paper:Â Simple Stories 24/7, PTI Stampers Select White
Ink:Â Memento Tuxedo Black
Accessories:Â Jotted Heart Die (Verve), Wavy Hearts Die (Verve), Heart Quartet Die (Verve), twine thread (May Arts), foam tape, 3M Quick Dry Adhesive, Prima Distress Tool
