August Diva Dare- Day 5


Pile On the Sweetness, August Diva Dare

Hey there!   Laurie here today to bring you Day 5 of this month's "Pile on the Sweetness" Diva Dare.

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 how I answered the dare...


So my goal was to use several layers on one card. Officially, counting the arrow, I have 7 layers on this card! :)  I used some Fancy Pants paper and a frame and sentiment from the Treasured Word stamp set.  I added in some enamel dots and a wooden arrow to finish it off.  


 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.
