"Perk Up" - February Diva Dare
Welcome to February's Diva Dare! This month's Dare is entitled "Perk Up."
What we're daring you to do this month is make a card or project to perk someone up, whether it’s with a warm beverage or just a heartfelt sentiment to brighten someone’s day. No shortage of options as Verve has some wonderful coffee and tea sets as well as a plethora of uplifting/heartfelt sentiments.
A layered Verve card with yummy ribbon, stamped and embossed vellum, stitched panels, sequin sprinkles, curly twine, and glitter paper is definitely one that perks me up!
I adore the new Verve Stamps set, More Than Love! It has the most beautiful sentiment fonts! I used the small "smitten" as a scripted pattern on the long background panel and heat embossed the larger sentiment in silver onto a vellum Tagged Rectangle Die. There a few layers of Wavy Hearts and Heart Quartet Dies with a peek of the Classy Label Die, too. A fabulous Autumn Elements ribbon bow and a sprinkling of Pastel Sequin Mix finishes off this loving card!
For more inspiration this month, stop in over at Viva la Verve for a new challenge each week! I used colors from Viva la Verve February 2014 Week 1 and the Week 2 sketch!
