Serendipity Stamps Challenge

 Hi all, today I have a little Easter themed creation for this fortnight's Serendipity Stamps Blog challenge.

This fortnight the challenge is to create something using your Scor-Pal, or other scoring board. We have a prize from Scor-Pal for one lucky winner of a Scor board, and the Serendipity Stamps special this week is Free Shipping on any U.S order of $10 or more, and runs from Feb 6th until Feb 13th.

I have made a little gift box, using the instruction found on the Scor-Pal website HERE. The instructions were so easy to follow, and with my scoring board I made this in about 15 minutes! Of course the decoration took a little longer! This was surely faster than hopping in my car, kids in tow, find a parking space, trip to the shop and forking out for a gift box for really any occasion!


As my box topper, I have used the lovely Serendipity Stamps image of Jeanie's Easter Basket.

I used Promarkers to colour the image to match the pretty papers by Trimcraft, from the Summer Breeze stack.
I cut the image with a Spellbinders oval nestie, and edged with a Spellbinders fancy trim from Venetian Motifs set.

Do stop by the rest of the design team for some more Easter themed inspiration. Although our projects are Eadter themed, your own entries need not - as long as you use your score board to make your creation, and use a Serendipity stamps image or die cut, you will be eligible for the prize.

Thanks for stopping by,

Pauline
