Hello Friends,
I had some free minutes to play and dug into some of my lovely Serendipity Rubber Stamps! I found inspiration by looking at all of the lovely cards over on the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog. And decided to play along with their current challenge:
SSCB#59
Leave It Bare - Let your detailed stamp take center stage. No room for
covering up this time - we want you to leave the stamped image bare! No
markers, no pencils - nothing - nada! Our red rubber stamps make
gorgeous detailed impressions - just ink and stamp! Just be sure to
include at least one Serendipity Stamps image (stamp or die) on your
design!
I used the lovely "Christmas Chapel" stamp for my cards. I love the look of this church covered in the snowy beauty of a Christmas Morning! I had a wonderful "Winter Wonderland" sentiment sticker given to me for free from Serendipity and decided to use it on my red card below:
I used a snowflake die from Heartfelt Creations to create a snowflake
shaped window in my card base which I had already embossed with a
snowflake embossing folder. I edged the aperture in white charcoal
pencil and then added glitter glue and fine glitter to it. I then
layered a piece of music vellum into the window and placed the stamped
image behind it gluing both pieces to the front of the card base.
A sweet holly sticker to dot the "i" in Winter and some black and white twine complete this sweet card.
Then I decided to make a more CAS style card in earth-tones using Kraft cardstock and Mercury Glass Stickles around the snowflake aperture.
The sentiment I wanted to use was too big for the outside of this card so I just placed a sentiment on the inside only:
I love this sentiment "Let Heaven and Nature Sing"! A favorite of mine!
Thanks for taking a look at my cards! It is always fun to play with my Serendipity Stamps! I need to add some more small sized sentiments to my stash I think! I sure love the detailed beauty of their gorgeous images!
Crafty Hugs!
