Love Deepens Spotlight Hopping

Hi again!  It's time to shine our sneaky Verve spotlight on some more brand new stamps! We're counting down to Verve's release party this Friday night, April 15, with FOUR days of Spotlight Hops! And since we love to share, there's a prize hidden on one of today's hop spots! Just leave a little shout-out in the comments as you hop about for a chance to win some new Verve of your very own! You can check out the Verve Blog for all the prize details and deadlines.



Today the Divas are spotlighting Love Deepens, a sentiment set focused on the women in our lives.  For my card I used the title sentiment, My love for you only deepens through the years.  I just love this sentiment.. perfect for mothers, children and even spouses.  Here I used the Mom sentiment from this set to personalize my card, stamping it onto a tea-dyed mini tag in Rich Razzleberry and tucking it underneath the flower.

I stamped the sentiment on a Labels 1 Nestability, then shaded with Crumb Cake ink.  Next I made the flower by spritzing some blushing bride and rich razzleberry Floral Circles die cuts with water, then scrunching together, dipping in diamond glaze and sprinkling with glass glitter.  The inside is adorned with a chocolate pearl brad from Pizzazz Aplenty.  Next I stamped the big leafy image from Bloom & Grow twice in Pear Pizazz and cut with the Elegant Leaves Die to layer under my flower. 

The card base is two Grand Big Scalloped Circles glued together, and the background is cut from some pretty Espresso striped paper from the SU! Naturals DSP pack.  I finished off with some a seam binding bow and some liquid pearls.

Okay, that's all from me today.  The Divas are also spotlighting the Proverbs 31:28 Plain Jane today, so hop around to see what everyone chose to play with!
