Color Me Spring

Happy Saturday, peeps!  The Verve Diva Dare is wrapping up this weekend, so I thought I'd take this chance to pop in with my take on this month's challenge... Color Me Spring!  You have until Sunday night {4/10} to play along, whether you're taking the dare or just commenting on all the fabulous Diva creations.

Color was the name of the game for this dare, and as I pulled out my colors I couldn't help but think of a fabulous new line of sorbet I saw at the grocery store the other day...  mango, strawberry, lime and lemon.  Yum!  So along with the Egg-stra Special set I pulled out some cardstock that hasn't seen the light of day in a while... apricot appeal, gable green, pink pirouette, barely banana and soft sky.  Sorry my photo is a little dark.  My camera settings got bumped and I can think of at least a hundred things I'd rather do this morning than retake the photo with the correct settings.  {grin}  So for a moment, just imagine brighter whites, softer colors and sparkling butterflies and eggs.

I didn't really have a plan, just started stamping eggs on the different colors of cardstock, accenting with Copic markers and layering with my just hatched chick and some green grass.  The cardstock pieces are embossed with a new Sizzix embossing folder and I just layered them together similarly to how they fell on my desk, adding a little hand-doodled dotted border and stamping a couple eggs in the white space in the bottom corner.


The sentiment is cut with the Charming Oval Die and I accented with some rhinestones in pink, blue and green.  I finished off with some sparkly butterflies, polka dot ribbon and a couple Trinket Pins from Vio's Handmade.

That's all for me today!  I've got tons to do before next Friday's release.  Hope you have a fantastic weekend, and don't forget to play along in the Diva Dare!

Photo Shoot

Hi there peeps!  I was cruising along and realized it's the last day of the month and I hadn't shown my March Sketch For You to Try entry yet.  Oops!  For this card Dax the Duck got all dressed up (because what duck doesn't want a sparkly orange bill?) and went to one of those photo booth vending machines!

I couldn't wait to try this sketch, because I love a  tilted panel.  And the only thing more fun than a tilted panel is... a wonky titlted panel!  LOL  Little Dax from Lucky Ducky is stamped repeatedly on strips of white cardstock, then I colored his bill with a copic marker and matted on black.  The striped paper is from the Echo Park Springtime collection.   For the main panel, I cut the wonky rectangle, sponged around the inner edges with barely banana, then made a tag with the Sweet Scallop Tag Die, and the Charming Oval Die Set and Charming Banner Die Set.  I split the sentiment from Lucky Ducky up to fit the banner, then stapled the banner to the charming oval die cut.  I finished off with liquid pearls, stickles, and divine twine.  Oh, and that fabby little double bow uses gingham ribbon from Pizzazz Aplenty.  It's a dream to tie!  Love it!

Well, there you have it!  There's still a few more hours to get your cards in for Jen's Sketch For You to Try this month.  Tune in tomorrow morning for our April Diva Inspirations Hop!!!

Flutterby CASE Study


Hi everybody! This is my final week of being the muse over on the Case Study challenge blog! I've had so much fun playing along with them and seeing all the beautiful inspired creations from my little cards!

I hope you'll play along with us this week as we CASE this creation of mine from back in July.  That butterfly from Blue Skies is one of my favorites and who can go wrong with a little wild wasabi?  You can read more about the inspiration card on my original post.

This was probably the easiest card of  the whole month for me to CASE.  Maybe after an entire month, I'm finally getting the hang of it!  Or maybe this card was just my favorite.  {wink}  When I started the month, I had no idea how hard it would be to CASE myself - especially when I'm the kind of gal who tries never to do the same thing twice!  LOL  Anyhow, I had a lot of fun and it stretched me to make some great cards, like this one with some of Verve's new stamps and dies!


I took my inspiration from the layout, the large scallop circles, the butterfly and the flower.  I started by cutting the large scallop circles, then embossed the flower trio from Chicks Rule in black and colored with Copics.  Next up I embossed the butterfly from the same set once on patterned paper and once on vellum, trimmed out and layered.  Then I cut a black mat for them with the coordinating Flutterby Die and added some black  pearls for the butterfly body.

I stitched and embossed piece of vellum directly to the For the Record designer paper, then inked up with Antique Linen and Vintage Photo and distressed the edges a bit.  Some stitched red ribbon was the perfect divider and I added a big bow.  The sentiment is from the Friendly Phrases set and is stamped and matted on die cuts using the Charming Banner Die Set.

The little trio of pearls is set off with the 4 petal flower punch from the SU! Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack.  I just glued the pearls down, then folded up the petals.  Love how it turned out.  I finished off with the eyelet lace border punch and a few drops of liquid pearls.

Okay, that's all for this post, be sure to check out these inspired creations by the CASE Study Design team...

Ducky Mojo

Hi peeps!  My Mojo Monday card for this week is just a tad bit late.  I actually made the card this weekend, but multiple oopses and a whole lot of re-diamond glazing delayed the picture taking.  As in... oops I put my thumb in the diamond glaze.... oops the cat stepped in the diamond glaze.... oops the fan blew the card off the bookshelf face down and there's diamond glaze on the desk.... oops a pile of papers just fell and landed in the diamond glaze.  Ever have one of those days?  These poor balloons have been through the ringer, I tell ya!

This card is for my big brother who just had a birthday.  I thought he'd get a kick out of Dax the Duck, so I created a little party scene using the new Life of the Party collection from BasicGrey.  Following this week's Mojo 184 sketch, I went for the square option.  I added a die cut border below and adorned the top half of the stage with a Charming Oval Die cut in half lengthwise and embellished with orange frosted flatback pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.  The balloons are cut from DP using the oval in the Charming Oval Die Set and I stamped the balloon string from Egg-stra Special directly on the middle panel.

Dax from Lucky Ducky is cut out and I tucked a Charming Banner Die under his arm and stamped a sentiment from Big Wish.  I finished off with some layered SU! star punches, Liquid Pearls and umpteen coats of Diamond Glaze sprinkled with glitter on the balloons.  :)

Bundle of JOY

Happy Sunday peeps!  In case you missed all the fabulous samples the Divas shared at our release party Friday night, there's an After Party going on over at the Verve Blog today! The Divas are each sharing one of their favorite projects from the new release and it's a whole lot of awesomeness in one post, I tell ya.

Here's my favorite card.  Chloe and her basket from Chicks Rule had a little play date with the gang from To the Moon, and this is their little play date portrait...

 
Isn't that fun?  The basket from Chicks Rule is colored and cut out.  I stamped the handle on a long panel, then Emery the Elephant and JayJay the Giraffe from to the Moon and Chloe from Chicks Rule piled  inside and I placed the cut-out basket over them.  Since they're peeking over the sides, I was able to move the basket a ways below the end of the handle, giving more room for JayJay to peek his long neck out.

The sentiment is from To the Moon and I stamped it on an Embossed Oval Die cut.  Then to jazz it up, I cut and layered four of the new Charming Oval Die cuts, then arranged them as a backdrop for the Embossed Oval.  LOVE the look of it!   I tied a bit of Sahara Gold Metallic Dream String from Pizzazz Aplenty around the long rectangle. This stuff is so shiny and fun to work with!  A few little buttons and a whole lot of liquid pearls finished everything off.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  Have a wonderful day!

Oh Baby!

Happy Saturday, peeps! Thanks for all your sweet comments the last few days of hopping - I had so much fun sharing peeks with you! We had a fabulous release party last night and all the new sets and dies are available in the Verve Store! Yippee!!!

I'm popping in to share a card using the new Lucky Ducky set and the Charming Oval and Charming Banner Die sets. And yep, that yellow gingham is back! I rediscovered it when I was re-arranging some papers and haven't been able to stop using it!



I made a fun little frame for the little dude from Lucky Ducky (Dax the Duck) to sit in by layering a classic circle and a pinking circle Nestabilities die together and running through my die cut machine together. Love the look of it! Dax is colored with Copics, cut out and tucked behind the frame. I layered the Charming Banners on top of the Charming Ovals for a fun little look, and added the Oh Baby sentiment from Munchkin Phrases.

A big gingham bow, adorned with some loopy loop Lemon Divine Twine adorns the side. Once again, I just used a little diamond glaze where needed to keep my loops in perfect position. I finished off with the Inside Pinking Border die from TCP and some pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.


Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you have a fabulous weekend!!!

Chloe's Casa Spotlight Day 3

Hola peeps!  Today is the final day of Spotlight Hops! Tonight we'll be revealing the new sets and dies from 9-11pm Eastern at our Release Party!  Drop on by... there will definitely be something to chirp about!


In the meantime, Let's Go to the HOP!!!  All the cats and CHICKS can get their kicks at the hop!  And today we're kicking off the first peeks at a set called Chicks Rule, a whimsical set for all the chicks in your life!  The Divas are also debuting the Flutterby Die today, which coordinates with the butterfly from this fun set.  And you guessed it... there's a prize hidden on one of today's hop spots, so leave a little shout-out in the comments as you hop about for a chance to win some new Vervey goodness!  But you better hurry, the deadline for commenting is tonight at 6pm Mountain!  Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize details and to meet the three Chicklets debuting in this set.

You can find the master hop list at the bottom of this post, but for now I'll turn your attention to my project for today... Chloe's Casa featuring Chicks Rule,  the Charming Oval Die Set and  the Sweet Birdhouse Template Set & Cutting Files from Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs.  Isn't this little birdhouse template just the cutest???

I cut the birdhouse shapes from Quite Contrary designer paper using my Cricut Expression and SCAL software, then assembled.  Although there's also a PDF included in Kelleigh's template set, so you could totally do this "old school" with scissors. {wink} The template cuts a peephole out, but I wanted a scallop edge to match the roof, so I simply punched a 1-3/8" circle punch out of espresso cardstock, then punched around the negative of the shape with the scallop circle punch and glued my resulting frame around the peephole.

Chloe from Chicks Rule is the perfect sized chick to hang out in this little Casa, so I colored her with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, then tucked her inside.  The flower in her hair matches the solo flower in the set, so I punched it out with one of the punches from the SU! mini punch pack, then colored with Copics and popped up for a little dimension.  It looked so cute, I decided to giver her a little garden of flowers at the base of her little casa.

The sentiment is one of my favorite's from the Chicks Rule set, and is stamped on the largest die from the Charming Oval Die Set.  To give it a quick little mat (and a little pouch to tuck my stick pin), I simply cut two more of the large charming oval from early espresso and staggered them above and below the cream layer.  That triple pearl stick pin is a scrumptious little treat from Pizzazz Aplenty and I finished off with some aqua shabby wrinkled ribbon.

So that wraps it up for me today!  I hope to see y'all tonight at the party!  Happy hopping!!!

Charming Oval Spotlight Day 2

Hi friends!  It's Day 2 of our New Release Spotlights, and time to shine our sneaky Verve spotlight on some more new stamps and dies!  Follow the hop list at the bottom of this post to see our first looks at Egg-stra Special and the Charming Oval and Charming Banner die sets.  And because we love to celebrate, there's a prize hidden on one of today's hop spots, so leave a little shout-out in the comments as you hop about for a chance to win some new Vervey goodness!  You can check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize details, deadlines and a little more chitchat about today's featured stamps and dies.

You can find the master hop list at the bottom of this post, but for now I'll turn your attention to the debut of the Egg-Stra Special set and Charming Oval Die Set. 

I went for an elegant looking card showcasing the new Charming Oval Die Set.  It's a set of three dies that layer together.  I used the smallest die as an Easter egg and cut three of them from some Hello Luscious paper.  I remember as a child  being mesmerized by all the colorful and ornate glass eggs in store windows at Easter time, so that was my inspiration for this card.  I added a cream charming oval mat and bermuda bay, purely pomegranate and wild wasabi outer mats.  Then I dressed things up with two sizes of shiny gold pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.

That little loopy border is is one of my faves and is made using the Apron border from TCP.  I found this fun Sizzix embossing folder on my last trip to the craft store and had to bring it home with me.  For the sentiment panel, I embossed the Easter blessings sentiment and the Vintage Oval Frame stamp in detail gold.  I colored in the outer line of the vintage oval with a Copic marker, then matted on a Vintage Oval die cut from Wild Wasabi.

Well, that wraps it up for me today.  I posted my CASE Study challenge card a bit earlier, which has another peek at the new dies and an early peek of the set we'll be previewing tomorrow.  To see it, just scroll down to the next post or click here.  Tune in tomorrow for our final Spotlight Hop before the release party on Friday night!  Hope you have a fabulous time hopping today!  See ya soon!

Chicklet CASE Study


Hi everybody! This month I'm honored to be the guest muse over at the Case Study challenge blog! Each Thursday in March they'll be challenging you to be inspired by and loosely CASE a given card of mine.  There's usually a pretty cool prize, so I hope you'll play along with us!

This week, we're CASE-ing this shabby little card I made during my last trip to Laurie's.  Her craft room is so inspiring and I remember having so much fun laughing with her while I made this card using Joy for the Journey and the Vintage Oval stamp and die.  You can read more about the inspiration card on my original post.

For the remake I was inspired by the colors (a very Vervey combo), the layered punches and dies, as well as the diagonal ribbon.  My original card was made as a sneak peek of Verve's October release and today's card is a sneak peek of our March release that's coming up this Friday!


This little chicklet is from the Chicks Rule set the Divas will be previewing on Friday.  Yep, I got all mixed up on my days, so you're getting an extra sneaky peeky!  Good thing  I'm the owner, or I might be in trouble!  {wink}  Charley (yep, that's her name) is colored with prismacolor pencils and gamsol, then I trimmed her out, along with her little scepter and glued the crown on top, adding some turquoise pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.  She's on a crumb cake background stamped with the title sentiment from the Chicks Rule set.

There's also a few new die sets releasing Friday, and a couple showed up on this card.  The Charming Oval and Charming Banner Die sets can be layered together and were designed to fit many of the sentiments in our Phrases line of stamps.  Here I thought the Princess of Quite a Lot from Munchkin Phrases was the perfect fit.  These layered dies are matted with the SU! scallop oval punch, then I added a mini rosette fit for a princess behind it all.  I finished off with some silk ribbon and a bit of bling.

Okay, that's all for this post, be sure to check out these inspired creations by the CASE Study Design team...

Lucky Ducky Spotlight Day 1

Hi friends!  It's Wednesday, and time to shine our sneaky Verve spotlight on some brand new stamps!  The release Divas are putting on a little hop today to introduce you to a new set called Lucky Ducky and our Hope Perches Plain Jane.  And since we love to celebrate, there's a prize hidden on one of today's hop spots, so leave a little shout-out in the comments as you hop about for a chance to win some new Vervey goodness!  You can check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize details, deadlines and a little bit about our fabulous Guest Diva, Janelle Stollfus.

Okay, so let's get this party started!!!  You can find the master hop list at the bottom of this post, but for now I'll turn your attention to this little debut of the Lucky Ducky set.  You'll also see a little peek-sy at one of the new die sets if you look closely.


My dear friend, Shannan, has been hinting around about wanting a ducky set literally since the dawn of Verve.  So when I sat down to illustrate some whimsical spring critters, I knew a duck would just have to make an appearance.  And thus began the happy little existence of a fellow I like to call Dax the duck. He's colored with Copics, cut out, then layered on two dies from the new Charming Oval Die Set.  I then stamped the sentiment from Lucky Ducky inside of the Vintage Oval Frame (stamped, colored and die cut with the Vintage Oval die).  And since he's just hanging out on a fine spring day, I added the kite from To the Moon.  I finished off with some Black Licorice Divine Twine, a little thin ric rac and some bling from Pizzazz Aplenty.  The trick to getting the twine to lay just right and curl up on the ends?  I place it how I want it, then use a toothpick to dab a tiny drop of Diamond Glaze on the paper below the twine, then press it in.  Once I get it just so, I then trim the ends and everything stays in place.  Here I added a couple drops under each side of the bow, to keep things all neat and tidy.

Well, that wraps it up for me.  If you missed my sneak peek of the Hope Perches Plain Jane, just scroll down to the next post or click here.  Tune in tomorrow for two sneaky peeks from me... my CASE study challenge card and our Day 2 Spotlight Hop.  Hope you have a fabulous time hopping today!  See ya soon!

Mojo Perches

 Hi friends!  It's Monday already (where did the weekend go?) and time for another sketch over at Mojo Monday.  This week's sketch was based on this fun little card I made a little while back.  I loved how it came together and decided to turn it into this week's sketch.

For my sample Mojo 183 card today, I flipped the sketch and turned it into a square card to accommodate this early little sneak peek of the Hope Perches Plain Jane that will be releasing from Verve this Friday night.  Yep, it's release week, and we've got some fun sets and dies to show off starting on Wednesday with 3 days of Spotlight Hops.  Be sure to tune in then! 


Anyhow, this poem by Emily Dickinson has always been a favorite, so I just had to have a stamp with at least part of it! 

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops  at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chilliest land
And on the strangest sea;
Yet, never, in extremity,
It asked a crumb of me.

And ever since I designed the stamp, I've had this little bird image from the Swan Song set in the back of my head, so I pulled it out and went for a soft shabby spring look.  The bird is trimmed out by hand and softly colored with Copic markers, then I added a little pink glass glitter to the branches.  Beneath him is a bit of twine rolled up in a circle and I added a little SU! glass glitter  to it, too.
