So what can I tell you about today's featured products?
If you've ordered from Verve in the past couple of years, you probably received a customer appreciation stamp with your order. Every so often, I compile all of these stamps into a set so everyone has a chance to enjoy them and With Love is our latest edition. You'll find a variety of sentiments and a few coordinating images to many of the sets we've released over the past 2 years, so it's perfect for mixing and matching.
The Birthday to You Plain Jane is one of those stamps that sprang out of me wanting a new sentiment for the inside of birthday cards. I love the happy birthday to you sentiment from Birthday Bash because it works great for both masculine or feminine cards, so I decided to supersize it and make it into a plain jane. At 1.5" wide x 1.25" tall, this sentiment works great as a main focal point for your card or as a sentiment for the inside of the card.
Last but not least, we're introducing a couple of trim border dies this release! Today we're featuring the Pennant Trim Die, which makes banner making for cards a breeze! And at 5.25" wide, it's sized perfectly for cardmaking. Hooray!Customer Card Carnival!
