Oh, new Verve!  How exciting!  Julee has designed some fresh and fun fonts and flowers to satisfy my addiction to both :)  I’m using a couple of the new Button Best sentiments to create a little chalkboard sign with the Occasion Frame die and matching On Occasion frame image.  I cut each of the Petal Points dies out and stamped the coordinating flowers out adding the cute little centers from the set.  I just punched them out with my circle punches…easy peasy!
