TODAY'S Featured Set:
It's day two of Verve's Spotlight Hop, and we're featuring the set Words Cannot Express. This set is full of wonderful sentiments of gratitude in a beautiful font.
I was inspired the other day by a photo of summer beach and poolside umbrellas, and thought I would use my Octagon die (Spellbinders), to recreate the look and make a thank you card.
If you click on the photos, you can see more of the detail on the umbrellas.
Here's a close-up of one of the sentiments included in this set.
I also added a continuation of the sentiment on the inside with a single umbrella topper.
Here's a close up of this beautiful sentiment.
Don't forget, Verve's release party is this Friday night, July 8, and there's a big PRIZE hidden on one of today's hop spots! Just leave a little shout-out in the comments as you hop about for a chance to win the entire July release! You can check out the Verve Blog for all the prize details and deadlines.
