Magic Stars



Happy March everyone and it's certainly been cool but bright weatherwise so far !

Recently made a card using a 4 x 5.5 inch tentfold card the base of which was made from dual coloured card with an overlay decorated matt cut slightly smaller in white card.





For the background I used a set of Tim Holtz stamps called Bitty Grunge and stamped in various colours of Impress Dye inks using Chartreuse, Tangerine, Poppy Red, Celeste Blue and Peony Purple.  The black was all stamped in onyz black Versafine.

I stamped randomly with a grungy star stamp in black also.




Once complete I diecut on the Sizzix 3 sizes of stars from assorted coloured card to match the inks.

These were layered as shown and then hand decorated with designs in white and black Posca markers.




The centres were embellished with a black cabochon and they were then arranged on foam pads as shown. The sentiment was stamped in black Versafine ink to complete. This card is available for sale in my Etsy Store.
