Good Morning!
For our Serendipity Stamps challenges this month, we will be taking part each Wednesday in Gingersnap Creations weekly challenges! Serendipity Stamps is the sponsor. This weeks challenge was time. I know, you are thinking, her card does NOT look like it has anything to do with time!!! LOLOL!!! Au contraire (yes, I had to look up how to spell it!!!)!!! LOLOL!!! The sentiment refers to time, LOTS of time!!! In my case, LOTS AND LOTS of time!!!! LOLOLOLOL!!! I still haven't reached perfection but there's still time!
The base of this card is Chocolate Chip and is 5" square. The next mat is Vintage Cream and then Lavender Lace and finally Eggplant Envy. The next layer is a piece of vellum I have had in my stash for a LONG time. The image and sentiment are both included in Serendipity Stamps set called Wine and Cheese Cling Set and can be found HERE! I stamped the image using Black Momento ink on Vintage Cream CS by PTI. I then colored using my Copics and cut the image using my Square Nesties. I sponged the image using Ranger Antique Linen ink and a little Chocolate Chip on the edges. The image was matted using Chocolate Chip CS and I added some Crystal Effects to the wine glasses to make them look like shiny glass. I stamped the sentiment on Vintage Cream using Chocolate Chip ink and then added a purple Prima flower, SU! button, Linen Thread, Martha Stewart branches and some leaves I cut from one of my Spellbinders frameabilities dies using Artichoke CS.
Be sure to check out what my teammates have done with this time challenge!
Have a great day!
