Starla Spreading Stardust - Fairy Stamper Design Team

Hello and welcome! Today I have a magical card that features Starla, who is sprinkling Stardust. The stamps that I used are available at the Fairy Stamper Store: https://fairystamper.com/

Here's what I did to create this card:

1. Using Canson coldpress watercolor paper, I created the background using ink smooshing with a variety of Catherine Pooler Inks. I used a sea sponge to stamp blotches of color such as Flirty Fuchsia and Tiki Torch around the vignette.

2. I used Versafine Clair Nocturne ink to stamp Starla in the middle of the vignette area. I then stamped the Stardust stamp around the vignette with the same ink. I used a glitter brush pen to add sparkle to her wings, hair, and the stars.

3. I used a scrap piece of purple water colored paper (a piece I ink smooshed with Catherine Pooler Inks). I stamped the sentiment using Versafine Clair nocturne ink and heat embossed the sentiment using clear embossing powder

4. I trimmed the sentiment with my deckle trimmer. I adhered the sentiment to a piece of blue foil card stock (also cut with the deckle trimmer). Using the same blue foil cardstock, I adhered the panel to the foil card stock and then to the A2 base (size 4.25" x 5.5").
