The most room in your heart for August Verve Diva Dare
Here's my card for this month's Verve Diva Dare: Pile on the Sweetness. We're supposed to create a card with lots of layers.
I went ultra girly here with lots and lots of pink. Most of the papers are from Glitz's Hello Friend collection, although the bottom layer of paper and the mats are MME.
The sentiment is one of my newest Verve Plain Janes that I picked up during the current sale (everything in the store is on sale right now!). And the little stamped hearts are from the Take Note stamp set.
That gorgeous seam binding is from my friend Debbie's Paper Sweeties store.
Lots of layers, and some experimental stitching too. I thought it would be fun to try the cross stitch stitch that I have on my fancy sewing machine. I really like it, and I'll definitely be using that stitch again.
I used another of my Punky Sprouts buttons on this card, just love those!
Hope your week is off to a great start! Thanks for coming by!
