BACKGROUND Berries

 We have a fun and easy challenge this week for Serendipity Stamps!  Use a regular stamp to make a background for your card or project.  I hadn't used my blackberry stamp set yet and I thought it would make a pretty background.  As you can probably tell, I stamped it randomly on my paper.

 Using the "direct to rubber" technique, I pulled out some water-based markers and used them to color up my berries.  I used a bunch of dies to create my card and all the layers.  The finished size is 5 inches square.

Be sure to check out what the rest of the team made:

We'd love for you to play along and be eligible to win a prize.

I have never tried the direct to rubber method Miriam...I was wondering how you did that! So pretty, love the colors you chose and the shape of your card.
