I could not get the lighting to work for me when photographing this next card in full view, so here's a little glimpse of it.  

Be Blessed

I tried these colors a different way...still not my favorite card I've created for this release, but, the photograph was a little better this time!  Promise I will do this amazing stamp set justice in the very near future, so stay tuned!  In fact, tomorrow will be a great day to come back!

Wedding Wishes

I inked up the new Be Blessed flowers and sentiment and displayed them with a few of the Sprightly Sprigs Die Set!

 Now, you are off to Amber's blog for more inspiration and new release peeks!
We'll be back tomorrow for MORE peeks of the new VERVE release!


Thanks so much for stopping by the stage!

Love the use of the feather. I have some but never know how to use them. The second card is kind of plain or dull for a wedding card but I know you're going to rock it tomorrow..

That second card has lots of different colors, but they mix and match so good. I never thought to put plaid on a plant before, but it's a great feature.

Great cards! The new PJ is so appealing with its lovely mixture of fonts and that sweet scripture. I like the way you used it on the patterned paper. The music looks great on the bias!

Patty said...

LOVE your card!! Like you, my grandmother, and actually my mother, who is still alive, surely believed in this promise! I was actually shocked & inspired both, when the night my father died & I stayed with my mother, she still kneels at the side of her bed to say her night prayers at 78 years old!! I was blown away by it..she kept her faith so close to her I would never have thought she practiced her faith so dearly!!!

Amy C. said...

Wow! Your cards really stand out! I love the added feather!

Beverly Perdue said...
