This card was done for the Challenge this week over at the Cuttlebug Spot. The challenge was to use a new technique called Serendipity. Check out the blog here for a great tutorial.I loved trying the new technique. It was tons of fun!
The card I could do without....lol.
It's much prettier in person though. The background block was done following the tutorial and then embossed with Floral Screen. The technique is awesome it gives a great effect. Give it a try. The fabric shamrocks on the left I found in the dollar bin at JoAnn's. I think they're a little overpowering and I can't get them off now...LOL! The shamrock in the center was cut from Paper Doll Dress Up. It's mounted on Spellbinders Nestabilities Pinking Circles. The little glitter shamrock in the corner was put their to cover up a stamping mishap...LOL.
All in all this card gave me LOTS of trouble. I don't know if the greens are to bright for me or what.
I'm sure everyone has those projects that are destined to be less than perfect!
I hope so anyway...LOL!
Thanks for stopping by and checking it out!

ReplyDeleteThis card is wonderful! I love the colors you used, the different layers - and the "diamonds" you put around your circle go so great with the Serendipity embossing.
