It's Day 7 of our Spotlight hops, and we have a charming set, to share with you today, called Learning to Sail. Once again we've picked a mystery blog from today's hop and hidden a prize! So be sure to give a little shout out in the comment section as you hop around to each blog on the list. We’ll draw a random winner from all of the comments on the mystery blog to win today's featured sets and dies. There are quite a few ways to win some fabulous Verve sets, so check out the Verve Blog for all the prize details and deadlines.
I used the darling little sailboat, along with the wave, sun and sweet little sentiment "Life is but a dream". The image was all paper pieced, and I diecut two sizes of circles making sure the dry embossing was deeply etched. I then embossed it all with silver and added some Silver Viva Decor gel dots to make it look like a porthole.
Next up on the hop is Amber.
