Verve + Ribbon Carousel Joint Blog Hop




I'm thrilled today to be participating in a joint blog hop with Verve Stamps and the Ribbon Carousel!

The Ribbon Carousel designers are using Verve's Stronger Love and Wings of Love stamp sets in addition to the Arrow die. And the Verve Divas each received a very generous assortment of beautiful ribbons. Thanks, Ribbon Carousel!


Hop along with us today and leave some blog love for the Verve Divas and the Ribbon Carousel Crewmates to be eligible to win one of the two prizes up for grabs!  We'll select two random commenters from two randomly selected designers' blogs, so be sure to spread the love around!

The Verve Stamps prize is the ENTIRE November Release, and the RC prize is a NEW Ribbon Carousel with your choice of knob color! 

Ready to Hop?!

My card features Verve's Stronger Love stamp set along with some pink seam binding, white crochet trim, and pink baker's twine from the Ribbon Carousel. The papers are from Crate Paper's On Trend 6x6 collection. The sentiment is stamped onto a Verve Tabbed Rectangle die-cut. Accents include some Studio Calico wood feathers, some die-cut hearts (done with Verve's From the Heart die), and some Zva Creative bling.



The layout is this week's Mojo Monday sketch, #270. It's a contest week, which means lots of prizes up for grabs. You'll find all the info on the Mojo Monday blog!



Thanks so much for stopping by. Enjoy the hop!

I love the break from traditional 'lovey' colours on your card, fabulous :) I don't think using green for hearts would eer cross my mind! I should learn to think outside the box a bit more and maybe my designs might look as stunning as yours :)
