Day 4 Verve Holiday Release Spotlight Hop

It's release day at Verve and we're celebrating with Day 4 of our November 2014 Spotlight Hops!  Have you enjoyed the spotlights we've been sharing this week? Well, the wait is over and everything previewed this week is available in the Verve online store now! And to cap off this release, we're giving away the entire release to one lucky commenter along today's hop, so come along with us as we share one last look-see at our holiday spotlights!

Today's spotlight is on the November 2014 Release Collection, so grab a treat and hop along!

If you have come here from Christyne's blog you are right on track. If you just happened up on the Hop, you can follow the list below to get caught up.


Today was designer's choice and I couldn't resist using the Pinecone Christmas set again, stamping the branch with Simon Says Dark Chocolate and the pine needles with Stampin' Up Pear Pizzazz onto a circle. The pinecones were stamped with My Favorite Things Chocolate Brown and cut out with the matching dies from the Poinsettia & Pinecones set. The snowflake from the Unto Us set was stamped with Ranger Archival Aquamarine ink and cut with a die from the Reindeer Fun set. I attached both the pinecones and snowflake to the circle with dimensional tape. I followed the layout for the November Viva la Verve Week 1 Sketch using patterned papers from the Fancy Pants Oh Deer pad for the background. The sentiment was stamped directly onto the card base. After attaching the image circle with dimensional tape, I added sequins and buttons for the embellishments.
