August 2014 Diva Dare - Day 11

Celebrate Good Times - August Diva Dare

Welcome to August's Diva Dare! It's Charmaine with my take on this month's dare entitled Celebrate Good Times.     

Verve is turning 7 this month and we’d love to see your celebration cards.  Think wedding, birthday, anniversary… anything that brings the confetti out!

For my card today, I used the Moments Remembered set from Verve.  I started with the Henna embossing folder from Darice.  I inked the one side of the embossing folder and then put the white cardstock in the folder and ran it through my Big Shot.  I thought this gave a nice, festive background for the card. 

The sentiment was stamped and embossed in white on a piece of black cardstock and then the top of the black piece was die cut using the Flourished Trim Die.  I stamped the little flourish, hand cut it and covered it in Stardust Stickles.  To finish the card, I added some sequins from the Shine Bright Sequin Mix as well as some ribbon.  I hope you've been inspired today!!  Now it's your turn!
