Using Serendipity Squares Part 1 - Mini Notecards

 Some time ago I demonstrated how to use up all your little bits of paper and outline sticker leftover bits to create Serendipity Squares. That process can make a LOT of squares at once, and if you're not careful, you'll just change your leftover bits into leftover squares that are then left sitting in your stash.  USE THEM!

Today I show a variety of little notecards (approx 2 1/4 inch square finished size) using some of my Serendipity squares.  They are the perfect size for little gift enclosure cards.  This first one has a small Dazzle sticker mounted in the center, a stamped greeting, and pen-work border.
 This one shows a stamped greeting in the center with an outline sticker border that repeats the theme of the little star on the Serendipity square.
 Here we not only have a stamped greeting in the center of the Serendipity square, but stamped around the 4 edges to form a bit of a border.
And this one was left plain with stamped greeting and pen work borders on the sides.  Quick and easy, but great for adding that little special touch to a gift.
