I snuck in a few other Verve sneak previews, but started out with the Borderline set and the Mini Bookplate Die Set. I stamped the bookplate image in black, cut out with the smaller die and then matted in black with the larger die. A little Copic marker treatment gives it the look of three layers instead of two. I used the outlined chevron border stamp on each of the pennants on a Pennant Trim Die, then colored with Copics and layered a black Pennant Trim die cut behind it. A little mini scallop punched border and black twine finish off the divider.
Next I stamped the birdie from With Love on white twice, then cut out just the wing shape and stamped the open ric rac image across the wings a few times and colored in with a black marker. This is paper pieced onto the colored birdie. Next I cut out several Pointed Flower dies in white, pool party, peach parfait and cherry cobbler, then stamped the coordinating stamps from Lean On Me and added a little shading with Copics. The leaf is a Dreamy Leaves die cut, and I freehanded the leaves with a glue pen and then dusted glitter over them for a sketchy look. A Sizzix embossing folder background and a little clipped on flower corner finish the card off.
Alrighty, I've got SOOOOO much to do and so little time, so it's time to click on over to Laurie's!
