What a Wonderful World {Serendipity Stamps}

Hello friends, 

I am back again today with Serendipity Stamps.  Each month, Serendipity stamps offers monthly challenges and I am offering some more inspiration on this month's challenge- Background Stamping!  You can read more about the monthly challenge on the Serendipity Stamps Challenge Blog.  

 Here's my take:

One of the first background stamps that caught my eye in the Serendipity Stamps shop was the Marble Cell background.  I just love the look of marbled paper and this stamp makes it super easy to get that look. I stamped it with Versamark and heat embossed the design with white embossing powder.  I added a watercolor wash with my Zig Clean Color Brush markers in onbre shading of aqua to green. 

Next I stamped and embossed the And I Think to Myself sentiment and added more watercolor loosely painting a globe in the background.  A nest of silver thread along with some clear sequins are my finishing touches.  

Ready to play along?  Get all the details on the Serendipity Stamps blog. Just make sure that your card includes background stamping and at least one Serendipity Stamps Image.
