Hi everyone! I have two posts today - if you are looking for my 12 Kits of the Holidays - please scroll down - you will want to check this post out as well because there is some blog candy to be had!! So glad you stopped by today! I'm so excited to share with you part of the new Serendipity Spring Release! Today the design team is featuring the new pear stamp and die set. The set features a fancy die cut pear, a matching pear set and a sweet sentiment. These items are also available separately. To show you some of the possibilities I used the die and the stamp on different projects. My first card features the die cut pear in gold foil on a card loaded with lots of trims and embellishments.
More new releases will be featured this Thursday - May 2 - with another fantastic give away! If you love Serendipity Stamps I hope you'll join us at the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog where a new challenge is announced twice a month and you can win a $20 discount off your next order.

ReplyDeleteyour thank you card is probably my favorite one out of all the ones I've seen on the blog hop using the pear!
ReplyDeleteYou know I think at first your style is modern shabby and then I think, edgy retro, but then you go and mix them and dangit if I can't think of how to categorize your style. Eclectic bliss I think I'll call it!
ReplyDeleteAwesome job on this beauty my friend. :)
