Verve Winter Sneak Peek ~ Day 2.....

Hi again!

I'm here with another peek for you!  The Verve stamps we are peeking today are called ~ Richly Blessed, Joy for the Journey and Vintage Oval Frame, which I used on my card yesterday and can be found HERE.   The layout of my card is based on Mercy's Tuesday sketch which can be found HERE.  Here is my card ~

The base of this card is Sahara Sand with a mat of Soft Suede.  I stamped the berry branch image on the Soft Suede CS using my Champagne Versamark ink pad.  The ribbon is gold organdy and was heated with my heat tool so it would crinkle.  The red polka dot paper is a scrap I have had from Memory Box and then a strip of Sahara Sand.  The image and sentiment are from Verve's brand new set called Richly Blessed.  I stamped the cross on Sahara Sand CS using Sahara Sand ink.  I then added the sentiment using Soft Suede ink.  This piece was then cut out using my rectangle Nesties and then before removing the die, I sponged Champange Versamark ink.  The image was matted with Soft Suede and then I added some gold Zva rhinestones.

Here is a closer look ~
