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:
middle row across any colour, free and sentiment
Supplies:
Altenew to the moon stamp; Poppy Stamps birthday blowout birthday stamp;
Crafts 4 U stitched rectangle die; Charlie & Paulchen alphabet die; versafine clair morning mist ink; Hero Arts unicorn white ink; Versamark silver ink & wow silver metallic ep; distress inks; Finetec silver watercolour paint; White gloss spray.
Have a great week and thankyou for visiting,

That's a brilliant card Cathy and fits the brief perfectly..very cleverly thought out. I don't think I would have come up with something so good. The shadowy moon and the evening sky background with the spattered stars and that pretty pink haze around the moon looks great. x
I love your star wars card, the quote is fabulous and love the shine on the planet..
Thank you so much for joining in with our challenge at Little Red Wagon, hope you will play again..
