Hi Everyone!

Today kicks off the first Verve release of the year and it is simply phenomenal! I love all the dies and stamps that Julee has designed! Today's sample is a sneak peek from Psalm 63:3-4 Plain Jane: this is such a beautiful verse and I wanted to send it to my husband's cousin whose fight with ALS is getting more intense. I used the Sweet Scallop die from A Cut Above dies from Verve stamps to cut the sentiment and matted it onto some cork covered with DP.


I rolled a rose and added some leaves with ribbon and some bling and liquid pearls on the sides.
Card ingredients:
Paper: Circa 1934 and Kraft
StampsPsalm 63:3-4 Plain Jane: from Verve Stamps
Inks: Memento Rich Cocoa and Chalk inks: Liostick red
Accessories; liquid pearls, glue dots, ribbon froms stash, Sweet Scallop die from Verve stamps, photo corner Chomper. 

I can't wait to see all the creations today from these amazing women - please hop around with me and check them out!
