For today's card, I've used another of the newly released clear stamp sets from Rubbernecker Stamps and this one is Lift Off which makes a perfect card for a little guy or girl who loves stars and astrology. These new sets are so cute and contain sentiments and several images. I was also sent the Lift Off Dies which makes cut outs so easy to do.
I saw a galaxy background on Pinterest and thought I'd give it a go and after three separate tries, I am finally happy with the result. It's easy enough to do if you have a few of the Distress Ink colours. I rubbed in Salty Ocean, Festive Berries and Wild Honey in a swirly pattern onto the white cardstock. Then I added Chipped Sapphire completely over the card base and finally, some Black Soot around the edges to darken it. Then I went in and redid the Salty Ocean, Festive Berries and Wild Honey to brighten it up a bit. Next step was to use the stars from the Over the Moon set and emboss them onto the background with Wow Gold Embossing Powder. Final step for the background was to add dots with a white gel pen.
