Girls' Night Out



How about a look at some of the new Verve that's coming this Friday? I've used one of Julee's Anni-VERVE-sary sketches (#2), along with the new set Express Yourself, for this very, very girly card. Ooo la la! - love this set!! Peeks are up on the Verve blog too - check 'em out!

Some details that may not show up in the photo: the images and sentiments on the circle panel are heat embossed (clear EP over black pigment ink). For the corner flourishes, I stamped in VersaMark and then used heat-and-stick powder to add some Martha Stewart Onyx glitter. Last, I embellished the silver ribbon slides with some pink Stickles. Gotta love a little bling!

Thanks for visiting,



Stamps: Express Yourself (Verve Stamps, releasing Friday, August 14)
Paper: Stampin' Up Basic Black, Papertrey Vintage Cream, Making Memories Sabrina collection
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
