Valentine, Sweet Valentine
As promised, more Verve projects. This first was created with Sweet Valentine. I love this red, brown, green color combo - great for a guy card, even with the big ol' ribbon.
Next is a four-pack of little 3 1/4" x 3 1/4" love notes, created with Hearts On Fire:
And a tote to hold them:
My favorite set of the new release is Hundred Hearts. The sentiments are phenomenal! I chose to pair one of them with a photo of me with my youngest when he was only a couple months old. I'll either slip this into a scrapbook or put it in an 8x8 frame I picked up recently. I have to tell you, it feels strange putting my big ol' mug on here like this, but here goes anyway:
And a close-up of the ribbon/tag/sentiment combo:

Amy, as I go through your blog, I sit here in quiet reverent awe of your talent. I don't know where to begin. The scrapbook page you did you of your son is so incredibly beautiful. I've only recently discovered the Verve stamps and I can tell you I'm smitten! I've made one order and am getting ready to make another. I used one of their scripture verses for an ensemble I did for CHA. I plan on using them in the calendar I design this year as well. They are lucky to have your talent on their team.
Awwww, what a GORGEOUS picture of you and your son. Very sweet! Awesome colors and detail on the scrapbook page too!
So gorgeous! I am totally in love with that sweet scrapbook page!
Love the colors in the first one, pretty tote, love the pearls! Love the framing of your picture, sweet sentiment on the tag!
