Here's my little coffee theme for the hop.


I've been wanting to get this Verve Stamp Set inked up again and decided to play along with the latest Viva La Verve Sketch Challenge! This time around Julee has created a One-Sheet Wonder Challenge that will get us all through the month! It's a first since I've played with this challenge that all my cards were done before the deadline, but for today I'm going to share only two of the four cards as I'm holding out for a second blog post with a little blog candy.

Today's "candy" is a recipe my mom used for a lot of special holiday occasions.

Iced Coffee Punch Recipe



Enjoy!

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...
