Verve Sneak Peeks, Day 1~Love Story

**Please scroll down to see my Oh, Alice! card! Thanks so much:)**

Welcome to Day 1 of the Anni-VERVE-sary August Release!

This will truly be one of the BEST releases in Verve history, GUARANTEED!

Today, we're showcasing Love Story which is a GORGEOUS set--perfect for weddings, anniversary's, or "Just Because I Love You" cards! 

I used one of the Anni-VERVE-sary sketch challenge sketches for this card! See THIS thread for more sketch challenges and chances to WIN!

How fun is that sketch? I loooove long and skinny cards!

Okay, here's my sneaky peeky!

I just LOVE these colors together, Black, Aqua Mist, and White! So classy and elegant, a perfect Anniversary card! I'm giving this to my sweetie on September 1st, our 7 year anniversary!! It's got a little bit of bling and what man likes swirly punches, but you now what? My honey is used to my girly man cards, lol!

The swirly punch is from EK Success! 

This image is actually three separate stamps. The birds, the heart, and the sentiment are all separate, but don't they look stunning together? That's what I love about this set, TONS of mixing and matching possibilities!

I can't wait to see what the rest of the Diva's have prepared for today! Check out the Verve Blog for a list of Diva's with sneak peeks and MAKE SURE you check them out!

I'll see you back here tomorrow for more sneak peeks!!

It's an ANNI-VERVE-SARY Blog hop!!!!!!!

It's hard to believe that Verve is already 3 years old, she grew up so fast! *sniff!* Verve has been a huge part of my stamping life for the past 2 years and I can honestly say that I love it now more than ever before! Julee is just a phenomenal artist, business woman, and friend, and I'm SO happy for her and Mark that their sweet little company is doing SO WELL! I think we can all agree that EVERY release gets BETTER and BETTER! I just know that BIG THINGS are in store for Verve in the coming years, and I am so happy and proud to be right there watching it grow! 

Today we're having a HUMONGOUS blog hop in honor of Verve's 3rd Birthday and I hope you'll join us! Don't be intimidated by the 80 something blogs in the hop, you will be so inspired all the way through. I know I can't wait to start hoppin'!

If you're arriving here from Becca's blog, you're on the right track! If not, be sure to start at Julee's blog and work your way through for LOTS of Verve-y inspiration! If you get lost along your way *there are more than 80 blogs! It may very well happen, lol!* find your next stop on the Master Blog Hop list HERE!!!!!!!

My card for today uses one of my favorite releases this year *so far* HEE!

American Hero!

I know what you're thinking, "that's not patriotic!" Why? Just because it's not red, white and blue? As a girl in the USAF, I know that I'd *adore* getting a GIRLY patriotic card;) 

I cut the big tag out on my Cricut and sewed it onto the card base which is Berry Sorbet and patterned paper from the Basic Gray "Olivia" pack! I cannot put this paper down, it's GORGEOUS!

Okay, so there are TONS of beautiful cards to see so I'm not going to keep you here longer than ABSOLUTELY necessary;)
