Verve Blog Hop!!


Welcome to the Anni-VERVE-sary Blog Hop! Verve turns three today and we’re celebrating with a hop, hop, hop! If you've already been hopping along, you arrived here from Edna's blog. If not, head on over to Julee's blog (owner of Verve), for all the info on how to win prizes (after all, what's a party without presents?), and to start hopping from the beginning. If there's a hiccup along the hop, you can always head to the Master List to get the full list of links.



I've always loved these birdies, they look truly in love, no?  And such a cute couple :)  Very simple card, the birds and sentiment are heat embossed using black embossing powder.  I'm not sure about you but I don't do much embossing anymore but I love it, perfect for this pair!!
Thanks for hopping by! Now it's time to hop on over to Lisabee's  blog, for a little more Verve-y goodness.

Supplies:
Stamps:  Verve Black Tie Birdies & Feeling Groovy
Paper:  Gina K Pure Luxury White & Black
Ink:  Versamark
Tools/Accessories:  Gingham Ribbon, Black Embossing Powder, Martha Stewar Heart Lace Punch
