Anya
Schrier ( will be re-joining next month) did all the gorgeous graphics for the new challenge blog. I love the look …great job Anya! It makes me happy just to look at it. Jeanne Jachna , I think did everything else. She has been a huge help to me as I am new to the Serendipity Stamps Design Team. I think Jeanne and Anya put a lot of work (love) into this.
Thank You!
The challenge is twice a month. This month the challenge is to make a honeycomb / accordion card. Very easy! Use a die cut shape, to make it full... use more . Fold in half and glue. Fold back down for mailing. Jeanne has a link on her blog for a tutorial you might want to try.
This first challenge you may use any die you like, but it must include one Serendipity Stamp. You have 2 weeks to play. Hope to see you all give it a try. You will love the detail on the Serendipity Stamps. This Merry Christmas stamp is so elegant! You cant see it... but its embossed so its shinny.
