Hi!!!
I am going to go help construct the Rain Forest at my kids school this afternoon but before I go, I want to share a card I made!!! You are probably wondering if I own any other stamps besides Verve. YES I do but I truly LOVE my Verve stamps and have had trouble using any others!!! LOL!!! I hope you aren't tired of them and I will TRY to use my others but I am making NO promises!!! LOL!!! BTW, in case you didn't know, MOST of Verve flower stamps are on sale now!!! You can see all the sale sets HERE! Also, since I am on the subject of Verve, Verve's project parade has started and you can see the awesome projects posted each day HERE!
Here is my card ~ The base of this card is Kiwi Kiss and then Shimmery White CS which I punched down the sides using my wavy EK Success border punch. I then added a mat of Tangerine and then a decorative piece of paper from MME Bloom & Grow "Bloom" Collection on the top and Shimmery White CS on the bottom. I stamped the daisies from Verve's Wishful Elegance using Chocolate Chip ink on Shimmery CS and then cut them out. I colored them using my Prismacolor Pencils, added some leaves (I used another green pattern from the Bloom & Grow Collection) that I cut out using my SU! Birds & Buds dies. I mounted the top flower on top of the bottom using a dimensional and also added some white flock to the centers of the top flowers. I mounted these flowers on top of a square I cut from Shimmery White CS using my square Nesties and then matted this piece with first Kiwi Kiss and then Taken with Teal CS. The ribbon is Old Olive grosgrain and the rhinestones are from MAMBI. The final step was to stamp the sentiment from Circular Sayings using Chocolate Chip ink.
Have a great day!
