Wish upon a Star

Tuesday, April 20, 2010

Broke out my hardly used Papertreyink's 'Star Prints' for this card...arranged most of the star images from the stamp set unto a big acrylic block, inked it up with Papertreyink's 'snow white' pigment ink & stamped repeatedly onto a piece of chocolate cardstock. Another Quick & easy way to utilise your stamps; by making a background :) The accent piece (in kraft) is stamped with PTI's 'polka dot basics 2' in choc ink then trimmed with a pair of pinking shears, i also machine stitched on a vellum pc unto it & adhered some buttons & stamped a sentiment.

The whole accent piece is then mounted on some large width-ed wire ribbon and attached to the top of the card. The whole card is then sponged on the edges with more 'snow white' pigment ink. A bit bulky to send in the mail, but a lovely addition to a pressie if you're giving it away by hand :)

Thanks for stopping by!
