Neat and Tangled

I'm so excited to help kick off a new stamp company today!  Danielle Walls has some adorable new sets kicking off her first release!  I would first love to say Congrats to Danielle on such an exciting day and thank you for asking me to be a part of it!  

The set she is featuring today is called Fresh Blooms.  It has such a fun mix of hand drawn images and sentiments.  First off, a CAS card...

This card also features a background stamp you will be seeing in the next few days.  

This next card shows the blooms in this set.  And also maybe a little hint of another background image...

Go check out the Neat and Tangled blog for more samples using this gorgeous set!  I can't wait to see what the other girls have for us!

Verve Diva Blog Hop

Yep!  You are in the right place!  And if you heard me squeal a few days ago, its because I got an email from Julee asking to be a Guest Diva over at Verve for the month of August!  I am sooo excited to share and also to hop along with these amazing girls!  You should have stopped here from Christyne's blog and then I am the last stop on the hop!   If you would like to start at the beginning, click HERE for a full list of participants.

Here is my card for today's hop...

For my card, I used stamps and dies from the Bloom and Grow set.  I cut out individual leaves and tucked them behind the popped up flowers.  I mad my own banner out of a 2" piece of kraft cardstock and then used a square punch to get the banner ends.  

I finished it off with some buttons and a sentiment!  

I can't wait to share more with you this month!  Stay tuned for Verve's release!  It is FANTASTIC!!

Have a great day!
