Life is Good


There's a new Diva Dare challenge going on over at the Verve blog, and today is my day to answer the dare! Here's how it works ... following each release, Verve posts a theme that we dare you with, and you'll have two weeks to complete the challenge. During those two weeks, the Verve Divas will post their creations and tell you how they answered the dare! This month, the theme is Sentimental About Paper! It's time to dig into all that gorgeous patterned paper you've been hoarding! Showcase a sentiment stamp (no images) to create a new and never-before-seen project! Verve stamps are not required, but if you've got 'em, we love to see 'em! Have you played along yet? If not, there's still plenty of time!

I hope you'll visit me over on the Verve blog today for more card info plus a chance to win some Verve! Life is good!

I love, love, love, the pp clouds! The fat sentiment banner is great and it's wonderful the way you cut around the kids on the pp strip! Creative and fun card!
