I made this card for it's all in the (White) details challenge (WT) and I must say the addition of white on this card surprised myself!!
In fact I made this card yesterday without the white details, just the white sponging on the borders, and when I saw Sabrina's challenge thought I must use this card for the challenge.
The toothpicks are colored with alcohol markers and glued together, I stamped the eagle with stazOn ganache, added the stars and stamped the sentiment heat embossed it and sponged the borders with white pigment ink, this morning, I took out the white gel pen and highlighted the eagles wings and head with the gel pen, added some doodling around the stars and made a starry night .
I'll be back later with something else

That is so cool. I'm impressed with your stamping on the sticks. I tried stamping on a little miniature bamboo mat and it's still waiting for me to turn it into something else as it didn't look anything like this good. Thanks for sharing the before picture. I think the white doodling looks super on it and really adds a lot. I'm glad you had it all ready to add a little something.

Your card is amazing, Anita! You really make fabulous cards with so many different techniques! I love seeing what you do each day. Love the eagle on your toothpicks! The white stars and doodling do add to the card.

Wow! I've never seen stamping and coloring on toothpicks before! I love it and I love the white doodling that adds the perfect finishing touch to this cool card.
