This month's dare pays tribute to Diva Andrea (Ewen Style), and Diva Christyne (Stampin' with Sugar). Both Divas are known for the wonderful way they can add layer upon layer on a card. So what we're daring you to create this month is a card using lots of layers.
If you want to kick this month's dare up a notch, you can add a flower cluster as per Diva Andrea, or go with a "sweet" theme as per Diva Christyne's blog name "Stamping with Sugar". These are not required elements, but fun options should you wish to use them. Just remember to use at least one Verve product on your creation!
Here's what I came up with...
Those of you that know me, already know that this challenge is right up my alley! :-) Lots of layers and embellishments...sign me up, please! Both Andrea and Christyne are Divas that I admire and it was SO much fun paying tribute to them this month!
Even though I didn't use a flower cluster (even I couldn't fit any more embellishments on this card LOL!), I did go with a "sweet" theme! Nothing is sweeter in my mind that a great cup of Java! Mmmmm! ;-)
The coffee cup and sentiment are from Better With You set. The cute tag was created using the Sweet Scallop Tag Die and the seam binding is from the Truly Madly Deeply Seam Binding Collection! (I adore the colors Julee has put together in her seam binding collections...absolutely LOVE them!)
Deadline to link your cards is 8PM Mountain on Wednesday, August 28th. Entries must be new (posted 8/9 or later), include at least one Verve product, include multiple layers, and be linked up to the linky widget by 8pm Mountain on 8/28/13.
