Reach for the Stars Card

Hello Stampin’ Friends,

I’m back today to share two more cards from Stampin’ Up!s fun new suite; Stargazing! Today we’re Reaching for the Stars and sending smiles across the miles!! I hope you got a chance to watch my video yesterday, if not, CLICK HERE. This will also allow you to see the other two cards.

For my first card, I chose the celestial body that had the white going through the entire page. I also cut out several planets from the mainly blue page. Let’s take a closer look at the paper …

This gives you a better idea of what amazing paper I was working with. This suite caught me off guard, I was not expecting to fall for this one! My astronaut was stamped in Basic Gray and die cut. I die cut the face part of his helmet with some left over designer paper … I love the look!

There are little stars die cut from the Holographic Specialty paper from this suite … I used the holographic paper itself on my next card ….

My card base is Afternoon Azure and I matted my designer paper with Basic Black. The greeting was stamped directly onto the Stargazing Designer Paper (I used my Stamparatus / Now Retired) and I popped up the medium Lemon Lime Twist Planet with Dimensionals. Our Astronaut is popped up too! The measurements are the same for both cards shown today.

Measurements:

  • Cardbase: 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ scored and folded at 4-1/4″
  • Cardstock Mat: 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Designer Paper: 3-7/8″ x 5-1/8″

I’m using Basic Black for my card base on this second card and a pop of Berry Burst mats the Stargazing Designer paper. This piece of designer paper comes from the stunning berry & blue celestial design (You can see it on the photo above: Lower left-hand corner).

My main planet was die cut along with the rest out of the same paper (Top Center Above). I then die cut the larger of the two Saturn Rings … that’s what I call the, and my greeting from the Holographic Trio paper. I used the plain one for this card. The stamped greeting and the die cut comes from the Sending Smiles / Sending Dies. I’ll have links below for you.
