August Diva Inspirations Hop - Sequined Stunner!


Welcome to Verve's August Diva Inspirations Hop. It's the 5th of the month and that means it's time for the Divas to serve up some fresh inspiration with their Verve stamps! Leave some comment love along the hop spots for a chance to win a prize, then grab some stamps and play along with our August inspiration challenge for another chance to win!

Our August challenge is Sequined Stunner:

Sequins are the perfect embellishment - sparkly, affordable and with lots of texture. Add some sequins to your project this month to make it a sequined stunner! Feel free to use the graphic as inspiration or not.


I was really inspired by the graphic this month - all that white with a pop of reddish pink and sparkle - yum! I've used two stamp sets, Wishing You and the beautiful butterfly from Each Day. I kept it very simple with a paper doily and a big smattering of Shine Bright Sequins.


I fussy cut another butterfly for the inside of the card, leaving lots of room for a special message. 

It's time to head on over and see Sony now!

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!

  4. The card is beautiful. You have me at the red (and the butterflies).
    Sequins are a great embellishment - small enough to go anywhere but big enough to make an impact.
    thanks for sharing a wonderful card.
