I'm back with some more new Verve cards to share! :-)
For this first card, I used Verve's new Meditations set along with some of my favorite patterned paper (by My Mind's Eye). I just love these colors together!
This next card is another "simple" one, but I didn't want to compete too much with the bright colors and patterns. :-) I used Verve's new Plain Jane Comfort and paired it with the butterfly from Floral Whimsy.
I have lots of new stuff to show you in the next couple of days...so make sure to drop back by! :-) I hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend! ~Laurie
Recipe (Card 1) Stamps: Meditations Paper: Ocean Tides (Papertrey), Chocolate Chip (Stampin' Up!), My Mind's Eye patterned paper Ink: Chocolate Chip craft ink, Close to Cocoa (Stampin' Up!)

Laurie, these are both so different and both so beautiful. Great versatility. Or should I say Verve-satility? Sorry, I had to.

Dear Laurie,
Thanks for sharing you gorgeous cards. Your scripture card here had me thinking I should print this out and put over my desk as a reminder that with todays tech, fingers have as many words as mouths and should be just as carefully used.
Thanks for the inspiration and the lesson.
Hugs and blessings - Jean
