New Release Spotlight: Birthday Bash & Carpe Cupcake


Hello and welcome to Day 3 of our Anni-VERVE-sary New Release Spotlights!

Each day through August 19, we'll be previewing another set or two from our upcoming Anni-VERVE-sary release.  We've hidden a prize on one of the participating blogs each day, so leave a little comment love as you hop around to be entered into a drawing to win that day's featured stamps!  Deadline for comment entries is 6PM Eastern Friday, August 20.  Winners will be announced at our Anni-VERVE-sary Bash Release Party that night.  And for even more chances to win new stamps, play along with our Anni-VERVE-sary sketch challenges, going  on this week in our forum!


Today the Divas are spotlighting Birthday Bash and Carpe Cupcake.  Since we're celebrating 3 years here at Verve, I thought some birthday stamps were in order! 

Carpe Cupcake is 3 x 4" set of 6 stamps and will retail for $9. Kind of like a build-a-cupcake, you can stamp just the cupcake or dress things up with a couple sprinkle and candle options.  I can't wait to see all the delicious cards everyone makes with this sweet cupcake set!

Birthday Bash is a 4 x 8" set of 13 stamps and will retail for $18.  It includes several birthday sentiments, a coordinating trio of small cupcakes, some whimsical balloons, and a cake similar to that in Big Wish.  I've been needing some masculine birthday cards and the cake in Big Wish was just a bit too flowery, so I've included a plain version of the cake, perfect for paper piecing and coloring!

Today, the Divas are spotlighting Framed Wishes and Fabulous YouFramed Wishes is 3 x 4" set of 2 stamps. It will be an exclusive free gift with minimum purchase from release night through August 31, while supplies last. Then it will become available for the rest of the world to purchase in September. So technically speaking, you'll be seeing 9 new sets from Verve this release!

Fabulous You is a 4 x8" set of 11stamps and will retail for $18.  With a beautiful frame, two coordinating accents and eight uplifting sentiments to encourage the fabulous people in our lives, I know I'll be reaching for this set again and again. 

And the frames in both these sets are perfect for highlighting a sentiment or image, and work well with many of our Plain Jane stamps.  They also make great background panels layered behind punched or die cut shapes.  Check out the projects in our hop list below to see what happened when the Divas test drove these two sets!
