Diva Inspirations Challenge and Blog Hop!






It's the 5th of the month and time for the Verve Divas to bring you our monthly Diva Inspirations Challenge and Blog Hop!  There are two ways to win Verve prizes: comment on the design team's blog hop posts (linked below) to see their take on the inspiration, then go get inky and link up your take on the challenge to be eligible in our prize drawings!



Our June challenge is Eat Me, Drink Me


Are you fueled by coffee, tea or cocoa? Find cupcakes irresistible? Create a card featuring an edible treat or favored beverage!  Use the inspiration graphic as a starting point, or head off in your own direction - just leave us needing a fix of your favorite indulgence!
 
Click here to link up your challenge entries
Challenge deadline: Saturday, June 20.
Prize: $30 gift voucher to the Verve online store!




 

For my card I die cut Verve's Cupcake Frame die set.  I stamped the sentiment from Verve's Coffee stamp set in versamark and white embossed.  This sentiment always gives me a little chuckle.    Next, I die cut Verve's Coffee Word die cut twice and glued together for added stability and dimension.  I chose the colors from the inspiration photo.  I added loose threading behind the frame with some foam mounting tape for added dimension.  I finished the card with a few of Verve's Shine Bright Sequin Mix. 








Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines!
