Embellish Borders & Color Challenge

Verve Stamps is sponsoring the current {:Embellish Magazine:} borders color challenge. Have you seen it yet? Oh my, these gorgeous spring colors are singing to me! Have a look:



And here's my take:



I had fun today trying to go for a clean-and-simple design. I incorporated all of the colors and two punched borders. A super quick card to make - I stamped the sentiment in Versafine Onyx Black, then added a little pink color to the gorgeous letters in "Love" using a Copic marker. The ovals are cut with Spellbinders dies, and the borders are Martha Stewart (small scallop) and EK Success (large scallops). The green polka-dot pattern is My Mind's Eye dp. A little ribbon, zigzag stitching and some white inked edges and I was done :)

Take a look at what one lucky winner will recieve:



Deadline to participate is Thursday, March 11 at 11:59 PM EST. To play, link your project HERE!
