Verve Divas Inspiration Hop {March}

Welcome to Verve's March Diva Inspirations Hop. It's the 5th of the month and that means it's hopping time! This month we've got a fabulous challenge that's sure to put a string in your step! So in addition to a comment prize hidden along the hop, you can play along with the challenge and link up your creation for a chance to win another prize!

Our March challenge is Spring Has Sprung:



It's time to ditch the winter blues! Create a card that sings Spring using inspirational quotes, pretty colors and florals or themes that celebrate new life. Whether you draw inspiration from the graphic or blaze your own trail, just show us what spring means to you!

I love these beautiful blooms in Dream Big and used the coordinating Scalloped Flowers Die Set to bring these happy yellow blooms to life.



I was inspired by this week's MOJO335.  I layered the yellow flowers over a few Dreamy Leaves Dies and then popped the flower up over the Occasion Frame Die.  I stamped the banner with one of the Bountiful Backgrounds images.  Love those dots!


Need a little inspiration? Check out the blogs linked below to see what the other Divas did with the challenge! It's sure to be a treat, and speaking of treats, we've got a prize for one lucky commenter along the hop! Check out the Verve Blog today for all the prize info and deadlines.
