Today, it's all about Kind Words and Happy Hello. Kind Words is one of those sets that combines the best of what Verve is all about -- a beautiful floral image, a motivational quote, and a mix of additional all-purpose sentiments, all done in Julee's signature modern elegance. For this first card, I just had to go with the Mother Teresa quote - how beautiful!
The next set, Happy Hello, is just pure fun! The sentiments are darling, and there are some really cool graphical elements that just beg to be played with.
Here I've used a trio of open squares to make a checklist (I spread them out a little bit by stamping just one square three different times. "A Cheerful," "A Happy," and "A Warm" are separate stamps. The frame around the "hello" sentiment and the "hello" sentiment are also part of the set. The layout is one of the five Anni-VERVE-sary sketch challenge sketches:
There's still plenty of time to complete these challenges for lots of chances to win! Details are HERE.

Your first card took my breath away with the stitching, the paper piercing, the way you put the silhouetted flowers and sentiment together, and that ribbon -- then I saw the second card! LOVE those colors together, the dry embossed background, the checklist, the ribbons with the button and twine, and the shabby chic DPs you used - adorable!

WONDERFUL card!!!
Love these cards - the sentiments are fabulous.
Oh, Amy, these are wonderful! I always like your cards/projects, but the kind words sentiment makes this card special. I love the yellow/blue combo of the second card.
interesting matting on the first card, and the sentiments are wonderful. thanks for the inspiration!
MAN- I think both of these are "must haves"! Love you r creations- so bright and cheery!

Both are lovely, but I really like the second. The October Afternoon papers are some of my fave to create with right now, and I love the kraft you added.
Kind words are like honey and medicine to the soul. Amy, your cards, whether CAS or beautifully layered are a feast to the eye. And your kindness, even to the prefect stranger will always be remembered.
Looks like I need to get over to the Verve sketches too. Love the border, heard you did this from my bud crafty Cath...Just like Campbell Soup say's mmmm, mmmmm, GOOD! These are both yummy!!
Two beautiful cards...they make me feel happy!
