I love this MFT stamp set called Space Explorer. The images are so adorable. And I love the sentiments, especially this birthday sentiment. I created the background with distress oxide inks: twisted citron, seedless preserves, peacock feathers, and black soot. After blending the ink, I splashed water on the background. I stamped and colored the images with Copic markers and die cut it with the coordinating dies. I heat embossed the sentiment on black cardstock with white embossing powder and die cut it with MFT Pierced Fishtail Flags. I created my visual triangle using the stars from the stamp set. I used Wink if Stella on the stars to give them a shine. I usually don't finish the inside of my cards but this one is so easy to finish.
The sentiment is from the same stamp set. I used the edges of the background that I cut off to create the frame for the sentiment. Then used the images of the rocket from the set, colored and die cut to add. Love how this one turned out. I am entering these challenges:
- My Favorite Things Summer School Day 3: Visual Triangle
- Seize the Birthday: anything goes birthday
- Through the Craft Room Door: anything goes
- Little Patch of Crafty Friends: anything goes
- Pile It On: use a new technique: visual triangle

Well, I am off to work on Day 4 summer school. Tomorrow is my day at Head Start. Going to go play with the twins. Hope your week is going well. Take care and stay crafty!
