Hi there!
Welcome back to another day of Lawn Fawn's February inspiration week! We're showing off Out of This World, the cutest little astronaut set!
For my card, I started out with a piece of navy blue cardstock (Lawn Fawn's Blue Jay cardstock) and layered dark blue and black inks over it to create a deep, dark sky. Starting with a colored cardstock is so much quicker than layering colors onto a white paper. I flicked some white paint on top, and die-cut a slew of stars (using the Starry Skies die) to complete the background look.
Then, it was just a matter of coloring and layering all of the images - my favorite part! As I was putting the pieces onto the dark background, I thought the white border around the images was too stark. In the close-up picture, you can see that I sponged a touch of black ink around the edges.
If you'd like to see more of this card, hop over to the LF blog this morning - Kelly Marie re-created this card in her video!

ReplyDeleteGreat card. It is very cute.
ReplyDeleteThis was my favorite card on the Lawn Fawn Blogspot today. I love the bright colors on the dark blue background and how the white strip at the bottom sets it off.
