What is space? Is it that great unknown that stretches for a long way and time above our heads? And how far does it actually go?
I don’t have any answers to those questions but I made a space card! Since I do not have any space-related stamp sets or paper, I made my own! The It’s In the Stars background stamp(161269) was the starting point heat embossed with Silver emboss powder. Then, to make it look “spacey” I used Blending Brushes to add Blueberry Bushel and Gorgeous Grape ink with just a thin line left to look like the Milky Way.
The planets were cut from a selection of designer papers and there we have it, a space card! And the whole thing started with this new challenge from The Paper Players.
Thank you to the design team for this terrific challenge and for selecting this card as one of last week’s winners.
Here’s the list of products used.
