What Verve!


Oh man, do I love me some swirls! How beeeutiful are these flourishes? I saw the new Verve stamps and just about fell out of my chair. These were made for me. No, really, it's like Julee said, "hey mint, what would you like to see? what's that? lots of girly swirlies and foo-foo she-she shtuff? you got it, girl." And just like that, I'm a happy stamper. And I can whip up simple stuff like this in just minutes and feel like I've really done something. I just had to take a break from my Christmas cards and play with my Verve stuff. And I'm so glad I did. Aah, this one is just so lovely, I can't stop staring at it. I just love those swirls! Anyway, a quick note about this card. The center circle is punched out and on dimensionals, so it looks weird at this angle, but trust me, it's centered. And yes, you got it, I'm just too lazy and too crappy a photographer to take another picture (or 12) just to get a good, straight on shot. Let's all just celebrate the fact that I got this picture up. And, have a fabutastic weekend.

Stamps: Fairy Tales (Verve), Ink: Pink Pirouette (SU!), Versafine Onyx Black (Tsukineko), Paper: Papertrey white, Pink Pirouette (SU!), Accessories: 1 3/8 circle punch (SU!), Baubles (Stamping Bella)

I don't know if Beautiful is the word I'd use to describe Life, but it is a deadringer for this card. Truly beautiful, lovely, feminine, all that. And I'm not big on foo-foo, but in this setting, it surely works.
