Hi Everyone!!!

It's time for the Verve Divas to bring you our monthly Diva Inspirations Challenge and Blog Hop!

This month I met a very special lady who inspired me with her honesty, integrity and desire to change her life. Being with her was an honor and I wanted to make a special gift for her - so I created a framed piece for her using the inspiring newly released Rise Above stamp set and the Partly Cloudy die set.  I didn't follow the color scheme exactly above - just saw sunshine and couldn't wait to use it! I love this sentiment and the coordinating dies!!

I stamped the sentiment and cut it out with the Rounded Rectangular die and matted it with the Rounded Scallop Frame,  I added the Heart Quartet dies to the center of the sun and to the side of the scalloped frame :) I finished it off with some bling to the hearts and some gray stain ribbon to either side of the card :) I can't wait to give this to her tomorrow!


Card Ingredients:
Stamp Set: Rise Above stamp set from Verve Stamps
Cardstock: DP, white cardstock
Accessories: gray satin ribbon, Best Glue Ever, bling, frame

Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we're giving away a $30 gift voucher to Verve to one random commenter along the hop!
