Hi everyone! Welcome to another Verve Release Spotlight! Today we are spotlighting the amazing sets, Birthday Bash and Carpe Cupcake.
I have a sample for the COMPLETELY FUN set Birthday Bash! This set has 5 images and 8 sentiments. Aren't the balloons are fun and whimsical? I wanted a happy feel to this card, so I used some of my Love Me Do paper scraps. I pieced both balloons, colored in the stars and added some white gel pen accents. Fun and easy!
This next card uses the amazing wedding set we peeked on Day 1, Love Story. Sigh... this set is so beautiful. I see endless possibilities. I chose to go with a slight whimsical feel, but you could just as easily go really formal with this one! I saw this amazing card by Birgit (BIGGAN on SCS, warning you need to be a Fan Club member to view this) and LOVED the idea of gluing die cuts on to the card. I actually used some of the huge Bridal confetti tin from Michaels. I added some tiny pearls to the center. The sentiments are stamped on a Labels One nestability block and adorned with some Prima flowers from the Athena line. See the 1/4" silk ribbon tucked in the corner? I got this idea from Sharon shown here. BRILLIANT. I love the soft feeling of this card. AND it was easy to make. BONUS!
