Happy November! I love November...it's one of my favorite months! Two of my boys have birthdays this month...Thanksgiving is later this month...and Christmas is right around the corner! I love it!
I have a "Sneak Peek" to share with you of one of the new sets that Verve Visual is releasing this month!
Wonderful Wishes is one of the two new sets being released on November 10th. It is a set of 17 stamps, and as you've come to expect from Verve Visual, it is versatile and works well with any of the other Verve sets!
I started with a piece of patterned paper by Cosmo Cricket (Little Girls Collection) pulled my colors (Sage Shadow, Creamy Caramel, & Rose Red) from that. After stamping the floral background I stamped my Linen background stamp (sponged with Creamy Caramel ink) over the top of it. For my focal piece, I stamped the oval frame (included in the new Wonderful Wishes set) in Sage Shadow in onto Vanilla cardstock that I had already stamped with the Linen background stamp. Using my Stamp-a-ma-jig, I stamped the "Wishing you the Happiest of Days" sentiment in Rose Red ink. To finish it off, I added some sponging (Creamy Caramel) on all of the layers and a scalloped border at the bottom.
Here is a close up...to help see see the details better.
I want to thank you all for your kind words! My kids are feeling much better now...I was able to get all of my work done...prepare for our company...& help my DH with some ranch stuff! Whew! DH also surprised us and came home from the Hunting Camp last night! He's heading out again today, but we enjoyed our time with him! The kids are all worn out from a late night last night, so while they nap I will get to STAMP! Woohoo! I might be able to post more later, but if not I'll have something new for you in the morning! ~Laurie
