I have a card to share today that uses a new to me stamp set and a new to me technique :)
I have been on Design Teams for many years and I therefore have a huge stamp collection. I shouldn't need more stamps right? :) But I have never been given a "Space" stamp and I really wanted one because they're so fun and you can do so many different background techniques with them. So I searched a little and actually bought myself this one from Avery Elle called Astronaut. I loved it because of the cute images but also because I really loved the sentiments that came with it :)
I coloured these images from the set with copics and white embossed this perfect sentiment.
I used Distress Inks to create a Galaxy Background and then splattered it with white paint.
It was my first time making on of these backgrounds. I made a few which were a bit ordinary but I was pretty happy with how this one turned out :)
I also die cut a couple of stars and covered them with glitter but you can't really see the sparkly in the photo unfortunately.
I'd like to enter my cards in the following challenges :
Tuesday Throwdown -anything goes
Simon Says Stamp - stamp it
Allsorts - hand coloured image
Thanks for dropping by today :)
