Star Wars inspired birthday card

 

Hi everyone, I was asked to make a Star Wars birthday card for a young boy.

I don't have anything suitable, but thought this phrase was pretty iconic!
 I'm pretty sure he's old enough to read it... inside I printed a sentiment on my my computer, it says "You were born (and I stamped) Happy Birthday"


My galaxy was inspired by an article in Australian Cardmaking Stamping & Papercraft, Vol 21 No 12.
It was by Gayatri Murali. Her galaxy scene is gorgeous!

I stamped the 3 part moon, and silver embossed the top layer for some shine.
I blended distress inks, spattered with water, Finetec silver paint and white gloss spray.

The letters are double layered, tedious gluing lol!! I used a T ruler to glue the words in place.

I'm linking up to these challenges:
