Verve May 2013 Spotlights start TODAY!


Hey wonderful Verve fans! You've almost made it through our Spotlight Hop today. You will have come from Laurie S. ~ Just Give Me Stamps and here for just a minute then on to Miss Sweet Diva Maureen ~ Buttons and Bling.

Our spotlights are on new stamps with Take Note and Happy Graduation Plain Jane. The Divas and Guest Divas are giving you our first looks of these wonderful stamps. Just to keep you on your toes there just might be a little extra peeks with coordinating dies and ribbons along the Spotlight days, so be on the look out for some sweet Verve goodies.
Everything you see previewed along today's hop will be available in Verve's online store on Friday, May 10.

Want to win some shiny new Verve? We'll be picking a random commenter on one of the hop spots below to win today's featured products! So be sure to leave a little comment on all the blogs below to increase your chances! Check out the Verve Blog for all the prize details and deadlines.


I just love this little envelope in Take Note. I've fussy cut out a few in Simple Stories Summer Fresh Paper Pad and just had to have a peek inside one of them. Oh how sweet, there's a love note inside. It's made with the loose-leaf paper stamp in the Blue Skies set and a smashing sweet sentiment from our spotlight stamp set today, Take Note.

Now if you haven't been hopping with us already, you can start at the top of our Master Hop List and get some fabulous sneak peeks today.

Let's Celebrate Plain Jane Style!

There is an Anni-Verve-Sary party going on today! Verve Stamp Company is 2 years old! 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...
