October Diva Inspirations Hop! (win!)

Welcome to Verve's October 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 October inspiration challenge for another chance to win!

This month's challenge is entitled Fall Fancy:

The air is crisp and the colors are warm – celebrate fall with a spook-tacular creation or a thoughtful thank you using Fall as your inspiration!

You should have arrived from Sankari's blog!


I used all the gorgeous rich colors and foliage in the photo as my inspiration today - and mixed and matched lots of fun Verve products! I think something about the warmth of Fall colors just reminds me of curling up with a great cup of coffee!

The stamp set is the fabulous Coffee with the matching Cuppa Joe Cut Above Dies and Coffee Word Die. I've used the Sprightly Sprigs for my foliage, and also the wonderful  Rounded Scallop Frame Die and Rounded Rectangle Die. The border is the lovely Pennant Trim and I've finished with some Signature Sequins.

It's time to go visit with Sony now! But leave a comment to be in to win first!

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!
