Welcome to our February Diva Inspirations Hop! Today the Divas are dusting off some Verve favorites and putting on our monthly hop to inspire you with a fresh new spin on the stamps in our stash! So grab a drink and hop along as we share a little Verve with you! There's a great little prize involved, too! See below for more details :)
Today’s project is the card I made for my dh :) His birthday was on Saturday (Groundhog Day) and we celebrated with a romantic weekend getaway :) Stowed in my suitcase was this card :) Now, the dh and I love to read before we go to bed and he complained one night that he didn’t have a nice bookmark like I had. Mine is one I made YEARS ago, but I love it and it’s still in good shape :) So I thought I’d make a sweet little book mark to add to his card.
The sentiment on the book mark is from Stronger Love. I thought he’d love to see it every time he opens and closes his book :) I added a few bits of bling to subtly remind him that his dw loves bling {wink, wink!}. The banner flag is stamped with the coordinating Thatched Banner plain jane and then stamped with 2 sentiment stamps from Birthday Bash. Did he love it? Yes, it was a big hit!
So here are the blog hop details…a random commenter on one of the hops will win a $30 gift certificate to VERVE, so be sure to leave a little love in the comment section as you hop about! You can find out all the prize details over on the Verve Blog today.
