Faith



Verve Stamps is previewing new sets again today and tomorrow, leading up to tomorrow night's release. Over on the Verve blog, you can take a peek at Just For You, a collection of sentiments designed to celebrate and honor those special loved ones in your life. Read all the way down for a chance to win one for yourself!

I realized last night that the card I was planning to show today includes an image that hasn't been peeked yet, so I'll sit on that one for today and go to Plan B. Each month, in addition to the fabulous sets, Julee also tucks in a few Plain Janes. These are single stamps priced and packaged for value (only $3 each!). I've combined two of this month's Plain Janes - Leaves and Hebrews 11:1 - for today's card. This one has so many of my favorite things ... Scripture, buttons, beautiful papers, soothing colors, lace trim, stitching, and charms. Hope you like it!

The new sets will be released tomorrow night. Our Release Party begins at 9 pm in the Verve Forum on SCS. We'll chat, reveal the full sets, show more samples, announce winners, and then at the end, the new sets will be available for purchase. Hope you can join us!
