Verve Spotlight Hop Day 2


Welcome to the second day of our February 2013 Spotlight Hops!  Today we're shining our Verve spotlights on the new stamps So Fluttery, Shining Star,  and Beautiful Plain Jane. Each of the release team Divas below has posted her first look at these new stamps today. As you hop through the list below, you just might see some super sneaky peeks of new coordinating dies, so keep your eyes peeled! Everything you see previewed along today's hop will be available inVerve's online store on Friday, February 22.

I have a fun and easy card for you today using Shining Star!  And I even made a video!  What?!  Yep I did!  So first off here is my card...

I have been so inspired by all of the watercoloring I have seen lately, so I thought I would pull out my Lyra Aquacolor Crayons and make something fun!

Check out my video...I'm new to this whole video thing...but it's so fun!  I think I might make another one!  :)



Here is a list of all the stops to make on today's hop....
