For her challenge to the CCEE Stampers this week, Frances has asked us to use stars, since April 28th is National Astronomy Day
I stamped PB Catch A Star on watercolour paper with Versafine Black, then stamped Starry Sky from Purple Onion Designs with gold, embossed with gold EP, and then stamped the sentiment from Verve's Shining Star with Versamark and embossed with clear EP.
Then I masked the mouse and sponged the sky with Chipped Sapphire and Salty Ocean, foreground with Forest Moss and Pine Needles. Mouse coloured with Tattered Rose, Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Brushed Corduroy, Fired Brick and Mowed Lawn. I used a gold gel pen for the stars in his bowl.
Frame - drywall mesh tape on white card painted over with gold acrylic, sprinkled with gold, red and blue glitter, aperture cut with Spellbinders Curved Rectangles and popped up on foam tape.
I'll be back later to edit the fields; all info contained in write-up.

Your coloring is fantastic, Sabrina - your little mouse looks ALIVE on the card!! What an adorable image and I love the promise in your sentiment - how wonderful and true!!!
Quite a lot of work to get that sky to look so amazing, and that frame is the BOMB!! Love the extra texture and the glint of the glitter. Hugs!
