Where Flowers Bloom ...

I took the dare, have you???

What in the world am I talking about? The current Diva Dare challenge over on the Verve blog, of course! Our theme this month is "April Showers Bring May Flowers" and I answered the dare with my current favorite Verve floral set -- Hope Blooms. Visit me over at the Verve blog for more challenge and project info.

Where there's Verve, there are prizes. You know that, right? We have quite a few chances to win some Verve right now ...

1. Play along with our Diva Dare challenge and link up your new April Showers Bring May Flowers creation (posted April 22nd or later) to the linky widget on the DAY ONE post before midnight MST on Saturday, May 7th. One lucky stamper will win a $30.00 gift certificate to the Verve Store. Verve Stamps are not required, but if you've got 'em we would  LOVE to see ‘em!
2. For another chance to win, be sure to give the Divas a little shout-out in the comments section (on the Verve blog) as we share our April Showers Bring May Flowers creations. One lucky commenter will win the Verve stamp set of his or her choosing!  Winners will be announced on Monday, May 9th right here on the Verve blog. 

 3. Play along with each week's Viva La Verve sketch challenge, and at the end of the month you'll qualify for the Sketch Champions prize drawing. My Diva Dare card uses the Viva La Verve (May, Week 1) sketch by Amber. Take a look at this fun one:

4. And last, but not least, if you missed Sunday's Diva Inspirations Hop, be sure to go back and catch up. Leave some comment love along the way for a chance at a mystery prize hidden on one of the blogs. Here's the hop list:
