Starburst

Welcome

Today's card features lots of stars using a recent purchase I made.

The Bokeh Stars from Taylored Expressions was a fun one to play with.  

It is a 3 part layering stencil and so easy to use.

So here's what I did to create my card.

• I got out my stencil mat and placed the #1 stencil onto my cardstock and ink it up with some Carved Pumpkin and some Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink. The stencil mat has a bumper around the corner so it is easy to line up each consecutive stencil as you overlay them.
• I removed that stencil and replaced it with #2 and inked that up with some Peacock Feathers and some Blueprint Sketch DOX ink.
• Lastly came stencil #3 that I inked with some Cracked Pistachio DOX ink.  These inks layer so nicely over one another.
• Using my white Posca pen, I splattered all over the front and let dry. 
• When it was dry, I used this die cut combo and cut the outline piece right from the center of the stenciled panel.  I cut the sentiment from a piece of navy cardstock and glued them together.
• To assemble, I glued the star panel onto a piece of navy cardstock, then onto a heavy white card base.  I pop dotted the sentiment back into place and then added 3 navy gems to finish it all off.

Thanks so much for coming by and taking a look.
