SSCB #19 - Tri-Shutter Card


Hi all, I'm back today with a creation for this Fortnight's Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog.
For the next two weeks, we would like to see your take on a Tri-Shutter fold card, using at least one Serendipity Stamps image or die. To make the base, I just googled it, and followed the instructions, it was surprisingly easy to make.

For my card I made a festive one, using some lovely sentiment panels, and stamping my own background. This is how it looks closed:


For the background I used Snowflake Flourish small, which is on Sale right now for ...25c - Yep, $0.25c... it's one of my favourite Christmas/Winter stamps, so so pretty!

 For the sentiment panels I used 'May Your Days'  and 'Peace on Earth', both available from the Serendipity Stamps Shop. This is the view fro the right..


and the view from the left, I love that it looks like two different cards because of the panels.



And here it is flat!


This week's sale  at the Serendipity Stamps Shop will be free shipping on any US order of $10 or more. Sept 11-18.

Do stop by the rest of the D.T for some awesome inspiration!

Thanks for dropping by,

Pauline

Very pretty, Pauline. The pearl embellishment in the center of the snowflake flourish is beautiful. Love the tone on tone stamping. Clean, simple, and elegant! :)

A fabulous take on the challenge, Pauline. I love your tri-shutter fold card. A lovely red on Kraft combo and beautiful stamped. All three stamps you used look lovely and I really like the script fonts on the sentiments xx

So pretty, Pauline! Love the red/kraft combo and the snowflakes are lovely. The little white brads make it look like little red drawers, waiting to be opened.
