This card was inspired by three things: I wanted to promote and finally use this suite of products, I need a card for an upcoming wedding and we had a creative sketch challenge on our West Coast Creators team page.
I'm really pleased with the end result. I started with the background paper which is from the Twinkle Twinkle DSP. I then paired that with a piece of Balmy Blue DSP from the Tranquil Textures pack which I had run through the Big Shot with the Stitched Shapes Dies. I stamped the constellation image from the Little Twinkle stamp set in Night of Navy and then added Wink Of Stella to all of the stars and dots in the image. I used the same DSP to stamp the one sentiment on a small scrap and then bannered the one end. I layered this with a strip of Dazzling Diamonds (now you would use Sparkle) glimmer paper.
To add the Love sentiment, I ran Whisper White through the big shot using the smallest stitched shape circle and also ran Night Of Navy card stock with the smallest layering scallop circle from the Layering Circles dies. The stamp is from the Labels to Love set which was a set that carried over from last year's holiday catalogue.
At this point I had to decide what colour my card base would be. I tried this layout set on both a Whisper White card base and Night of Navy. As you can tell, Night of Navy won out. I felt that white was too much of a contrast.
To finish the card off, instead of adding rhinestones or some other embellishment, I used the Twinkle Builder punch to create glimmer paper stars in two sizes. I can't wait to make more of these!
