Project Parade - Day 6

Hello and welcome to Day 6 of the Egg-stra Special Spring Project Parade! Before I get started I’d like to announce one of our random winners!

Tricia, come on down! You’re the lucky winner of any Verve Stamps set of your choice (up to $24 value)! Congrats Tricia! Please send an email to info@vervestamps.com with your set choice and shipping address to claim your prize!

Now back to your regularly scheduled Project Parade. Can you believe the amazing projects the divas have shown you so far? When Jen told us the theme for this month, I knew exactly what I wanted to do. I saw these pieces that Keri Lee Sereika did in person back in February, and I've been itching to try my hand at them.  Whaddyathink?
And she was right....it was super easy! First, I cut a piece of cardstock to fit inside the necklace blank, and then I stamped the image from Miracles Blossom onto it in Brilliance Graphite Black. After coloring the image with Copic markers, I sponged the edges with Close to Cocoa ink to distress it a bit. Once that was done, I glued the image down into the blank and filled it up with Ranger's Crackle Accents. I had to come back a few times to "refill" because the glue shrinks as it starts to dry, but after a good night's rest it was dry and beautifully cracked like you see here! I am still pretty tickled with it...I hope you like it, too. :)

So do you want some new Verve??? Play along with us during our Project Parade for a chance to win a $25 gift certificate to the Verve Stamps store. All you have to do is create an egg-stra special spring project and link it up with the Mr. Linky form HERE. Entries will close at 8PM Mountain on Saturday, April 4! Verve Stamps are not required, but we do LOVE to see 'em if you got 'em!


And to put a little spring in your step, we'll be picking five random commenters over the course of the parade who will win their choice of any Verve Stamps set. You never know which Diva will be drawing, so if you see a project you like, be sure to leave the girls some love! :) Good luck and have a fabulous day!
