I *heart* You


Welcome back to day two of Spotlight Hops for Verve! Tonight I have a card made with You & I and the matching I heart U die set. There are tons of possibilities with this set!


I created my card base with the labels 19 nestabilties, adhering a full shape to the front of my folded card. I cut the U from the I heart U die set from thin chipboard and my patterned paper before sponging the edges and adding some diamond stickles. I finished with a taffeta bow and a button that matches much better in real life than it does in the photo!


I love bold stamps with fine fonts stamped over top so this set is perfect for me! I'm sure all the divas have something super inspirational for you - don't forget to leave comments as you hop for the chance to win the stamps and dies being shown today! Check out the Verve Blog for all the prize details and deadlines.

    So cute! Love the shape of your card! How do you do that?

    I hate when my paper or buttons don't look like they match once I take a picture! *hehe*
