Holiday Bundle
Today I have a Christmas card made with a new stamp of mine, Serendipity Stamps Holiday Bundle. It is such a pretty stamp, very detailed and I wanted to make a card showing how easy it is to make a colorful card without having to color.
I just dabbed some stickles on the holly berries, colored in the bow, cut out the image and layered it on a black mat. It really stands out in red and black. The snowflakes are from PTI (Damask Snowflakes). The cute sentiment label and sentiment are also from Serendipity Stamps (Merry Christmas Casual, small and Panel). I cut a small slit into the label sides and threaded some sparkly black ribbon through it. This is going to be an easy card to mail as it is so flat. Even though I don't like to color, this image also looks beautiful colored. Here's a link to the Serendipity Blog where Holiday Bundle is the 50% off Stamp of the Week and there are several other samples of cards made using Holiday Bundle.

Fabulous card Cathy, I love the black and red together and that stamped image is amazing!
This is beautiful Cathy. The musical background is perfect for this lovely image. Your red snowflakes are an awesome addition to this great Christmas card!
What a pretty card. Brilliant idea to use stickles instead of coloring. There are so many wonderful details on this card, I had to look twice when you said it was flat. And, now I know why you needed those snowflakes.
Beautiful , I love what you have done with this sweet stamp. The snowflakes in the background are perfect! Is a stickle the same as liquid pearl ? Well its a great idea and looks beautiful!
Ps love the music paper too!
Wow Cathy! Another winner! I love the classic red and black combo and how you made this stamp shine without coloring it! The pop of red is fabulous and that ticket shaped sentiment is perfect!
