Serendipity Stamps Blog Hop 7-19

It's time for the Serendipity Stamps Blog Hop! We're changing it up this year- there will be two hops each month as usual and there will be opportunities to win $ to purchase Serendipity Stamps. The design team will be showing you the latest products and offering a chance for you to win some goodies from Serendipity Stamps.


You should have arrived here from Julie's blog but, if you got lost along the way I have a full list below.  


 For my card today, I stamped the Sun Garden in memento tuxedo black and colored with copics. Added a couple panels on the bottom to "ground" the image and some black twine.



This is a close up to show you how I die cut the Bloom die. First, I die cut the Bloom from the flowered panel and then die cut several times in white. The white die cuts were inset into the flower panel to add dimension- lastly the Bloom die cut with the flower images was layered on top. I did choose to leave some of the white inserts in place rather than the flower images. 

Looking for some awesome inspiration?

This eclectic flower image is so pretty and love all the colours you have used Vicky, and the yellow spotted paper with the black and then the complementary black twine is perfect with it, also the delightful embedded die cut sentiment works beautifully. x
