OCC "Stretch Your Stamps 2" - Baby

Another quick post to show you my version of Donna Mikasa's technique of "painting" with water. Instead of a flower like she did I used stars and made a baby card.

Stamps: All Night Media (little angel), C Dee's (star)

I know, it's the same layout and even colors than homework that I made recently but I had to use blues for the night sky. And I really love that layout and the messy thread thing. Think I mentioned that before...

The piece of shimmery vellum is a scrap, I also "Wink of Stella'd" the stars and white strips on the side.
Then added various embellishments from my stash.

Skipping over to Pixie's Snippets Playground with this. Two in one week - and the week is not over yet! Have to make up for all the time that I didn't play there...

Hope you do at least one thing for fun today,
Susanne

Well done! The blues are so pretty, and it looks like a night sky. Sweet stars, sweet cherub, and a wonderful design, Susanne. Great card. Bev

Ahhh, I've found your blue DI colour washed, starry skied delight, Susanne ... yep, it's definitely something in the stars! What a gorgeous night sky you created ... the lovely subtle star shine is perfect with the sweet vellum! Anita :)

Hi Susanne. We have not met before but I am loving your card. I am not usually a fan of messy thread cards but you have got it nailed. Love the vellum too!

Your 'painting with water' technique is perfect here for the stars; it's cool how 'taking away' the colour has made them pop all the more! Cool effect! And that baby angel is the absolutely 'right' image for the sky you've created! Pretty, pretty, pretty!!
