What a fab site for today's Inspiration Challenge! I was really drawn to THIS. I used to live in Houston, TX which happens to be Space City & if you're ever there, be sure to check out the NASA Space Center...it's amazing!
Anyway, for my bg, I started w/ black & since I wanted it shimmery, I dug out some long neglected Opalite inks & a stippling brush & added the Milky Way looking areas. I used the stars dies to cut a reverse mask then sponged the stars onto the area w/ the platinum ink.
Then I die cut the black panel w/ the curvy border & added the die cut moon, ship & astronaut images. The greeting was stamped onto a large star & I also added some shimmery black stars in the blue band. The blue c/s has a kind of light, felty texture look to it.
Thanks so much for looking. Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff
