Verve's Thankful Hearts blog hop

**This is my second post, if you are looking for FWF card, click here**
Hi everyone and welcome to Verve's Thankful Hearts Blog Hop!! In leiu of the normal release party we do, we are doing a blog hop tonight featuring the three new sets that just released!! All the sets are focused on thankfulness. I am absolutely in love with each and every one.

If you’ve arrived from Jen D’s blog , then you’re on the right path. But, if you’ve just happened by, you may want to hop on over to Julee's Blog to start from the beginning! And to make this hop even sweeter, we’ve got a special treat hidden along the way for one lucky commenter. So if you see something that makes you smile, be sure to leave a comment for a chance to win our entire release!

My card uses the heart border stamp from the Thankful Hearts set which I have embossed with chocolate EP. The sentiment is from Celebration of thanks.
The felt flowers are from Creative Cafe and for the centers I used silver cupped flower sequins with a green rhinestone in the center. The pattern paper is Memory Box, Sprout.

The sentiment is punched out with SU's small oval and I inked up one of the hearts from the border stamp and added another green rhinestone.

Next up on the hop is the FABULOUS TOSH!!! Here is a master list in case you get lost along the way.
Michelle (me) -YOU ARE HERE!
