Stars!

My June Hero Arts kit arrived and I promised myself an entire week of 'playing' without a specific project in mind.  Inky, messy, escapist fun!
 
 So, yesterday, I was playing catch-up with my subscribed videos and became intrigued with Jennifer McGuire's Frame Die cutting technique.  Naturally, I do not have a one single set of dies that nests together so snugly amongst all the sets I have collected over the years. : (   However, I DO have a Cricut and a star challenge over at BBTB2 and maybe, a head start on next week's encouragement cards.





Stars - Rock Princess
Telescope - Outer Space Wall Decals
Cuttlebug Stars embossing folder

Inside: -




Banner - CTMH  Artist
Sentiment stamp - Simon Says Stamp

Yes!  A simple card that doesn't say "Hello" or "I Miss You" or "Stay Safe."  Win, win, win!





Here's what I was playing with all week:-




Distress inks, Oxides, alcohol markers, water based markers, pencils...  and this is my favorite -





Take a look at the Stars challenge here and be prepared for some inspiration!   Stay healthy.  : ) Christine

  1. Great use of nesting the stars for the card and it can be used for almost anyone who needs a lift. I absolutely love the northern lights cards too and need to look up that technique. Thanks for joining us on Bitten by the Bug 2.
