Welcome to our Holiday Spotlight Hops ~ Day 2! Hop along with the Divas today as we share a look at a few of the new products releasing from Verve this Friday night! One lucky commenter from each day's hop will win the sets and dies featured that day, so be sure and leave a little love in the Divasphere! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize details and deadlines.I went a bit geometrical on ya'll today. I loved the look of the flakes (or stars, or poinsettias...they could really be whatever you want.), and thought they'd be fun to make a pattern with and color. Stamped like this, they remind me of poinsettias. They're from the set Bright Spirits, which is filled with beautifully fonted sentiments, dove's, hanging ornaments, bells, stars, etc. This set has a little of everything in it to make a variety of Holiday cards.
I diecut the stamped dove with the Love Birds Die set, and glittered him up, and added a hanging heart to the sentiment on the inside.This card also fits with the CCEE Stamper's challenge, this week, which is to include 3 different shapes. I have a button circle, a square panel of the images, and whatever shape you want to call with the sentiment. Be sure to stop by the CCEE Stampers blog to see what shapes the rest of the gals have included on their cards.
That about sums up today's card. Be sure to check out what the other divas are sharing today.

Beautiful, beautiful card Tosha!! Reminds me of a quilt, so homey!!
I really love your masked circle card. It turned out so amazing!
Great cards! I love how you colored the heart ornament on the bottom card!!
What a great card! The front really looks like a quilt, love the effect, and the inside is so beautiful!
That is some very impressive, precision stamping! I can't believe how versatile this little star/poinsetta image is. Two beautiful cards today :o)
Great job! I especially love the softness of card 2!
Beuatiful work.....thanks for showing the versatility of the new sets!
beautiful cards...thanks for sharing..
Beautiful, Tosh! Love your geometric background... so striking. You've got about 300% more patience than me to line them all up! LOL
Who needs patterned paper? This is wonderful! Love the inside too, that bird is perfectly placed.
Fabulous BG you have created for the first card! Love the heart hanging from the sentiment on the second.
Pretty cards, Tosh! Love how clean and simple they are and yet very very elegant as well.
Wow, love the clean, crisp look of both your cards - they're very different, yet both very fabulous!!
What a cool, modern car you made with that pointsettia stamp!
the pure look of your cards makes them so noble and classy!
hugs and kisses from germany,
silvi xoxo
The inside is as cool as the outside, Tosha! And I do like that clean, graphic look you made on the front; very clever. :) Have a great day!
I love the pattern you made with the flowers! And the inside of the card is just as beautiful.
Gorgeous card...inside and out! LOVE that bold geometric design (I could never line up an image that many times and get it so perfect!). :-)
Very cool take. Not what I expected from you, and definitely not something this stamping-challenged perfectionist could take on, but I really like your patterned front. Love what you did with the inside.
Love how clean your cards are! Reminds me that sometimes less is more. Fantastic job!:)
very beautiful cards. love how you stamped pattern the poinsettias, the button looks great on the card. Love the simplicity and cleanliness of the second card.

Wonderful CAS cards!
Your geometrical pattern is awesome, such a creative use of this stamp!!
oh my -- love this. such sharp clean lines.
love your CAS cards. thanks for the inspiration.
Gorgeous cards. Love love the background you created on the first one! Simple elegance on the 2nd.
Fabulous pattern stamping; this is beautiful, Tosh!
The colors, stamping and big button are so warm and inviting on the front and the inside is just as pretty as the front.
love the quilted design....brings warmth through the image...and that sweet CAS is fab as well
Lovely CAS cards!
Beautiful card. LOVE this Verse stamp! Olena
OK, color me confused -- one card right? Beautiful, PTI-esque geometric pointsettias with an inside of soft sponging, sentiment and dove -- others have called them separate cards, which they could be! Either way, I love the geometrics, something I'm working to master, and I love the sentiment,ornament and dove -- I'm lucky! I like it all!
These are both so pretty Tosha - your style is so versatile! I like your pretty geometric background paper and your elegant sponging in your CAS card.
How long did it take you to make that geometric pattern. Such precision!! Fantastic job, and excellent use of the poinsettia stamp.
I love the soft, quiet feeling of the second example. The dove, the sentiment, and the sponged(?) circle with no harsh line.
Very pretty card.
so creative...love it
love how you went all geometrical on us :) hee! You are amazing gf!
Love the pattern on the first card!
love this Tosh, lots of shapes there :)
oh these are both beautiful! I love how you stamped the first one, so very cool!
You have such mad talent. Way to go with the patterned paper.
I like your geometrical card. Its very pretty.
Stunning card, good job.
Pretty cards. Love the different technique on each of them. Thanks for sharing.
Very cool pattern!
Love the card.

Oh I love how you made the pattern on the first card...but I drool over the elegant CAS style of the second one!
Fabulous cards! You are so versatile. I love both the geometrical and CAS cards!
I am quite taken by the softness of the second card! Both cards are simply lovely! TFS
Tosh! That first card is amazing! You are brilliant!!! Love that pattern you created! Wow! Your second card is beautiful too! Can't wait for these new stamps!
I love the elegant simplicity of this card. Well done.
Wonderful background-I love the pattern! ;)
love these CAS cards! gorgeous!
Love these cards, Tosh! That background you stamped is amazing!
Love the graphic look of the 1st card and the CAS design of the 2nd card.
Love that poinsettia pattern on the front, and the inside is delightful, too. Love it! ;-)
Great background!
What a great way to showcase these sets. Both beautful cards.
Love the way you created the dramatic background! !
Both of your cards are lovely.
Hi Tosh! Yes, this reminds me of a quilt too...a beautiful handmade quilt that took hours and hours to make and is cherished for years to come. Love your card and the vintage feel it has to me. The inside is a delight as well. Thanks for sharing your talents with us!
you are so right....it makes a fantastic pattern...if you have the patience for it!! My lucky I would be on my last line and I would get off course and ruin the whole thing....you perfected it beautifully!!
I love this awesome card.
