Serenity is my most favourite collection in AGES. Its so pretty and delicate. Within our family we have ordered one of EVERY single thing in the serenity range we all LOVE IT but my order did not arrive in time for me to do the challenge.

For this challenge I pulled out a bunch of things to use with my cards. I pulled out Blue Belle Cardstock, Blue Belle Cardstock and Toffee Cardstock. Then I pulled out Olive Branches Background Thin Cuts from the Background Thin Cuts Bundle and the Stitched Scalloped Brackets Thin Cuts.

I could not decide if I wanted to make the sapphire or the blue belle the main colour so I did one of each. I cut a 4.5 inch strip of each colour and got both parts for both cards out of it. After running the blues through my Big Shot machine, I used scraps on Toffee cardstock to cut the scalloped bracket and I did one light side up and one dark side up to have a lighter one for the blue belle and darker toffee for the sapphire top. 

I stamped in Sapphire Exclusive Inks™ Stamp Pad, using stamp set called Sentiments by Melisa Esplin. 

To finish off the card I put Gold Shimmer Trim accross the middle, stuck the sentiments up with 3D Foam tape and put some Gold Glitter Gems on the side.

I am happy with how they came out and doing them in the same but opposite colours really made them unique but similar.

    I have never seen the entire kit together and I must say I love it.. The stamp set you used seems very versatile as does the fab cover die.. I love it!! Also, you little strip of sparkle is so fitting for your sentiments. This card is just fantastic. Thanks for the inspiration teamie.
