Verve Release Blog Hop today


It's a very exciting day! Julee in all her baby nesting put together a set for us all just in time for Easter! It's called Hoppy Easter and you can go get it at the store now or instead go on the hop with us today and have a chance to be one lucky commenter who will be randomly chosen to get Hoppy Easter free! Now that's incentive to start hopping! You have until Sunday April 1 at 8:00 PM EST to enter, the winner will be announced on the Verve Blog Monday April 2.

If you've been hopping with us already you came from sweet Diva Maureen's blog and after you gander here a bit, Charmaine will be your next hop.



I made an all paper plaque to set up in my entry way. I always have such a hard time decorating, but when I saw this cute bunny in Hoppy Easter, it was a sure thing that I would have something set up for the holiday. I used all DCWV paper from various lines, just to get the style I wanted, and then started stitching in some vintage twine and distressing up the hills with an edge scraper. The sentiment and bunny are popped up with foam adhesive dots and did a small amount of coloring with copics on the bunny. It really came together quickly.









Have fun on the rest of the hop!

The hop started at Verve's blog , so come hop on board and see over 5 dozen projects that are sure to get your Verve on! I've been waiting for the right time to blog about this project and when the opportunity came to join in the anniversary blog hop for Verve I knew it was time. My blog hop project today uses all Plain Jane Bible verses from Verve. I saw this project at Susan Roberts gallery on Splitcoaststampers and went to her blog to get the details . I decided to make one for my mother as a Christmas present...in 2008. Yep, I just now finished it and I have the blog hop to thank. Using sketches would have made this a whole lot faster. LOL The two cards shown in the picture above use the latest Plain Jane release for Psalm 121:1-2 (hanging on box) and Hebrews 11:1 (in front of box). And I'll give the details below, but first here's a slide show of the whole year. Hebr...
