Verve's November Release Spotlight Hops ~ DAY 3









Welcome back to Day 3 of Verve's November Release Spotlight Hops!  It's an exciting day as there's new Verve in the store this morning! Two beautiful new sets and coordianating die sets just released and they're all available in the shop right now. To celebrate our new release, we're putting on another blog hop with a fabulous giveaway!

If you got here from the wonderfully talented Charmaine's blog, you are in the right spot!  

Today's featured focus is designer's choice, so you might just sneak a peek at a whole bunch of must-haves!





I decided I wanted to use the Beyond Measure stamp set again today.  I started with some electric red cardstock.  I stamped Jesus, Joseph, and Mary image from the set in versamark and heat embossed in white. I layered an oval frame over with some foam tape for added dimension. I sponged on some versamark to the frame for added depth and richness in tones.





For my sentiment, I chose a sentiment from the same set.  I white embossed and die cut using Verve's Mini Bookplate die set.  I added some foam mounting tape.  I decided to add some clear wink of stella to the entire oval area for added emphasis.   I tried to capture some of that shine in the pictures.  I finished my card with a few of Verve's Shine Bright Sequin Mix.

Want to win some shiny new Verve? Today's prize is a BIG one. We'll be picking a random commenter on one of the hop spots below to win our ENTIRE new release!
