Verve's October Mini Release Spotlight Hop

Welcome to our October Mini Release Spotlight Hop! The Verve Divas are back spotlighting our newest mini release just in time for fall stamping! There's something new in the Verve shop today, and we're celebrating with a blog hop. Along the hop you'll see the Divas' first looks at the new Autumn Leaves stamp set and Falling Leaves die set. If you have been hopping along, you should have arrived here from Marissa's blog.  If you're just stumbling upon this post, you can find the entire hop list over on the Verve blog or further down in this post.

My card today features a couple of my favorite images from the new Autumn leave stamp set.  I combined these with some classic fall colors, patterns, and textures and came up with this card.  For the layout, I made use of the current Viva La Verve sketch.

My card for you today features the new Cake and Candles stamp set.  I seem to go through more birthday cards than any other type of card so this set is just perfect for my needs!  I decided to utilize the set's namesake sentiment on my card as it is intended for a fellow cake-lover.  I also kept the colors soft as I know they are a favorite combo of the recipient.  With so many great stamp sets being released this week, do you have a favorite so far?
