Verve New Release Spotlight Hop ~ Day 4



Welcome back to Day 4 of Verve's March Spotlight Hops!  The Verve Divas and special guests are back for another day of spotlighting our new release! Everything previewed this week is available to order in the Verve online store. So come hop along and take a closer look at Simply Amazing, and the Simply Daisies and Amazing Adjectives die sets.

I had made a few watercolour backgrounds on the weekend and picked this Verve Blue and grey one for today's card.  I love the Simply Amazing set with all it's fun words and sentiments.  Really, I could spend a whole day playing around with all the possibilities!   After deciding on a sentiment, I embossed the words in white on black cardstock, then cut them out and arranged them around a gold "amazing" die cut. I love the way the words don't cover up too much of the lovely background.

At first your subtle card did not grab me. But the more I studied it, the design elements fit so beautifully together for a stunning conclusion...a wonderful card! Sometimes art does not need to be WOW and hit the viewer over the head. Yours has a sweet calmness and peacefulness to it and I love that about this card. Thanks for sharing.
