Some Verve Inspiration on Release Day!

Hello and Happy New Release Friday!
Yep, today's the day!  It's an exciting day as there's new Verve in the store this morning! Two beautiful new sets and coordinating die sets just released and they're all available in the Verve shop right now. To celebrate the new release, we're putting on another blog hop with a fabulous giveaway!
If you are hopping along, you should have arrived here from Julee's blog~


For this card I used the Beyond Measure Stamp Set.   I used my MISTI to place my berry images, coloring various parts of the image with one distress marker/ink, stamping, and then repeating with another color.  I spritzed with water as I went along.  The background is lightly watercolored with distress ink.  When all was dry, I stamped the sentiment. 
I got a little sketch inspiration from Sketch Saturday. 


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! So be sure to leave a little comment on all the blogs below to increase your chances! Check out the Verve Blog today for the full hop list and all the prize info and deadlines!






Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy all of the amazing inspiration along the way!  Your next stop is the oh so talented Lynn!
