Day 3 July Release Blog Hop

Hi friends! Welcome back to another day of hopping! It's Day 3 of our New Release Blog Hops and the Divas and special guests are back at it with their sneaky little spotlights on the Fill My Cup set today. All of the stamps we've been spotlighting today will be available to order on Monday, July 10. If you already know you need them all, go snatch one of the July Release Collections up at the 25% pre-order discount. Pre-order pricing ends tonight (7/9).

I'm the first stop on today's hop, so you're right at the beginning and I'm so glad you're here! For all the prize details and a little run-down on today's set, head on over to the Verve Blog. And don't forget to leave a little comment love as you hop about for a chance to win some shiny NEW Verve!


I went super sunny for my card today, using a stencil with scattered straw and wild honey distress inks for the main background. Next I stamped the sentiments from Fill My Cup onto a white panel, then the sun and clouds.  I stamped the sun and clouds again and fussy cut the image without the rays to pop up on dimensionals. I added a little bit of coloring with Copics, then accented with Nuvo crystal drops.


I added the Award Banner Trim Die across the bottom to define an edge, then finished off with a mug from this set paper pieced with a watercolored background I had in my pile of left overs. I cut the completed mug with the coordinating Happiness in a Cup Die Set and added just a hint of glitter to the brim of the cup.

Thanks so much for stopping by today. Hop on over to Kathy's blog next to see the eye candy she's sharing today!
