Day 2 Verve Holiday Release Spotlight Hop

Welcome back to Day 2 of Verve's November 2014 Spotlight Hops!  The Verve Divas and special guests are back for another day of spotlighting the new holiday release! Everything previewed this week will be available in the Verve online store on Thursday, 11/20. So come hop along with us and see what's new at Verve!

If you have come here from Andrea'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's spotlight is shining on the Pinecone Christmas set illustrated by Chaitali Narla and the coordinating Poinsettia Pinecones Die Set.

I am excited to be guest designing again today and I am also last on the hop.


I cut the flower using the poinsettia die from the Poinsettia Pinecones Die set and then stamped the matching image from the Pinecone Christmas set onto it. I colored with Copic Markers and then attached to a tag cut with the Verve A Cut Above Sweet Scallop Die. After also stamping the sentiment onto the tag I added a twine bow at the top and a couple of sequins from the Holiday Sequin Mix. I attached to a patterned paper rectangle, adding a strip of glittery card stock anchored with two mini brads. A trio of matted sequins finished it up for another clean and simple Christmas card.
