Tattered Pages, July Diva Dare
Hello Verve fans!! It's Amber bringing you Day 4 of this month's Diva Dare entitled "Tattered Pages".
This month's dare pays tribute to Julee (Poetic Artistry), owner and creator of Verve Stamps and Diva Teresa (Paperie Blooms). Julee has created countless, uplifting sentiments which have become one of Verve's trademarks, and Teresa knows how to rock distressing and "shabbiness" on her cards. So what we're daring you to create this month is a card using an uplifting sentiment and some distressing and/or shabby element to it. Kind of like an encouraging card you have received which you have read so many times the edges are a bit tattered. Just remember to use at least one Verve product on your creation!
I always love Teresa's fun multi-loop bows on her cards so I had to make sure to throw one of those on my card:) I used the gorgeous seam binding we now offer, from the Spring Fling collection.
The sentiment is one of my favorite for Thank You cards and is from Words Cannot Express.
I added some sewing, doilies, buttons, and rhinestones to finish off my "tattered" look.
I hope you can play along with us this month, this was a really fun challenge!!
Deadline to link your cards is 8PM Mountain on Wednesday, July 31st. Entries must be new (posted 7/12 or later), include at least one Verve product, an uplifting sentiment, and some distressing or shabbiness and be linked up to the linky widget by 8pm Mountain on 7/31/13.
