Welcome back to Day 2 of Verve's April Release Spotlight Hops! The Verve Divas and special guest are back for another day of spotlighting our new release! Everything previewed this week will be available to order in the Verve online shop on Tuesday, April 10.
Today we're sharing our first projects featuring the Hope Lifts stamp set and coordinating Lifted Hope Die Set.
I have two cards to share today.
For my first card, I decided to go girly girl and mix in some shades of pinks and greens. I stamped the sentiment from Hope Lifts stamp set in versamark and white embossed. I lightly sponged some versamark over for added definition.
I did the same for the butterfly using Hope Lifts stamp set and coordinating Lifted Hope Die Set. I colored the white embossed butterfly with copic markers. To dress up the corners of the rectangle panel I die cut two of the squares from the new Lacey Frames die set.
I finished my card with by adding some clear sequins.
For my second card, I combined some fun pattern papers from Echo Park Just Be You Collection.
I stamped the sentiment using Hope Lifts stamp set using versafine onyx black ink. I sponged the center of the sentiment panel.
I die cut and stamped the hot air balloon using Hope Lifts stamp set and coordinating Lifted Hope Die Set. I colored the hot air balloon with copic markers.
I also added some wink of stella to the balloon portion for some added shine. I finished the card with some clear sequins.
