Good Morning- so glad you stopped by today. The Serendipity Stamps DT are showing off some new goodies in the store and combining it with this month's Serendipity Stamps Challenge-- We're at the halfway point for this month's challenge!! We're still playing with watercolor- how fun! This month's theme is Inspirational (believe, create, dream, imagine)!
You should have arrived here from Carol's blog but, if you got lost along the way I have a full list below.
I made a couple cards for today...
For this card I used Serendipity's Whelk, Scallop, and Small Whelk stamps. The shells were stamped with versamark onto watercolor paper and heat embossed with white. Then, I used watercolors (actually SU for the soft shades) and loosely water colored over the top. The large whelk was stamped and colored on the main panel- the scallop and small whelk were stamped- colored- and cut out- popped on top for a little dimension. The Dream die was cut three times in different colors and layered a little offset.
Here's the inside...
The sentiment is Serendipity's My Life.
A little close up so you can see the embossing and watercoloring!!
The next card uses Serendipity's Art cling stamp set.
The jar of brushes was stamped with memento tuxedo black, heat embossed with clear, and then water colored with Gansai Tambi watercolors. The Create die was cut three times, layered, and popped up with microfoam dots for added dimension.
The inside sentiment.... you can click on the picture to get a closer look :)
