April Diva Highlights Part 1

Hey Verve fans! How's it going? I just thought I'd pop in to share a few highlights from this release and a little reminder that the April Viva la Verve challenges are finishing up.  The deadline to get all your VLV card links in is tomorrow night (April 29)! Somebody will win a whole Verve release, will it be you?  Click the images below to get the deets and inspiration pics for each challenge.

The Divas have been hard at work creating their usual drool-worthy samples for this release, so I thought I'd highlight a few of my favorites from each Diva over the next week or so.  You can click each cropped image to view the full size photo in our gallery:


Amber used Happy Days, Dude, Relax and the Hibiscus Plain Jane on these beachy fab samples. I just love the tropical flavor - these just scream summer fun! To see more of her creations from this release, visit Amber's Verve gallery or her blog, The Stamping Scrapbooker.

Amy used Happy Days, Blessings and the Romans 8:18 Plain Jane to make these gorgeously elegant creations. I love the way Amy layered the sentiment on the first card, {not to mention her gorgeous coloring}, and her shabby chic style is second to none. To see more of her creations from this release, visit Amy's Verve Gallery or her blog, Pickled Paper Designs.

Charmaine used One Person, Blessings and Happy Days on these beautiful projects. I love how different they all are, yet still so fabulous. The beautifully layered flowers are so fun, the gift set is stunning and the gorgeous browns, corals and reds on the final card just make me smile. To see more of her creations from this release, visit Charmaine's Verve Gallery or her blog, Oodabug Alley.

Jackie used Dude, Happy Days and Relax on these spectacular cards. I adore the sassiness of the first card with the bold colors and beautiful pleated ribbon. The orange and aqua is scrumptious together, especially with that touch of bling and the sand under those surfboards just makes me want to curl my toes in the sand! To see more of her creations from this release, visit Jackie's Verve Gallery or her blog, The Scalloped Edge.

Jen used One Person, Happy Days and Relax on these stunning samples. I just love the way she's been making ATC sized panels and then turning them into full sized cards. The second one almost makes me hear the roar of the ocean, and I adore the layered rickrack behind her girly pink surfboard!
