Welcome to my blog and Day 1 of Verve's New Release Spotlight Hops for November. That's right- Verve! I have the honor of guesting for Julee, the owner of Verve, for the month or November!
I have been a Verve fan for a long time; Verve was one of the first companies I discovered and shopped from when I looked beyond SU. :) I absolutely love the fonts and wonderful scripture stamps in the Verve collection.
Enough of that! Back to the release! You should have arrived here from Julee's inspiring blog, Poetic Artistry. Today we're sharing inspiration featuring the new Jolly Jingles stamp set and coordinating Winter Friends Die Set.
This set is amazing! There are so many options here- snowman, reindeer, trees and stockings!
And those sentiments with their fabulous fonts! Just became my new fave Christmas set. :)
Mr Snowman was stamped on kraft cs and colored with Prismacolor Pencils. I used the Winter Friends Dies to cut him out. The snowflake background is stamped with an oldie but very goodie set, Glad Tidings. The sentiment panel is also an oldie but very goodie, the Vintage Oval Stamp and matching die, which is a part of the Die Side Kicks Set. The image is stamped and heat embossed on that panel. Some gold thread and clear sequins add some shine and elegance.
I switched from elegant to CAS for this fun card, which uses Rudolph from the Jolly Jingles Set. I stamped and colored him 3 different times so I could fussy cut parts out to make a dimensional reindeer. He has a red pearl for a nose. I am linking this up to Merry Monday's Challenge, 'How Will You Decorate Your Door', and Fab 'n Funky- 'Animals'.
The wreath is from the Glad Tidings Stamp Set.
Check out the giveaway details then head over to your next stop, another guest designer, the fabulous Lynn Mangan!
Both cards are adorable.
