You Mean the World to Me


Still having fun playing with inks, mists and markers!  

I colored the star die cut circle with Tim Holtz ranger inks and spritz pearl shimmer mist over it (the picture doesn't show it very well).  I used Lawn Fawn's Year Four (hippo/birdies) and sentiment (Wish You Were Here).  The stars were spritz with red shimmer mist, too.  The birdies are holding "sparklers" I made with wire and cut sparkly cardstock using the top of a party hat punch.

CAS cards are really a challenge for me and I feel like this card "needs" something else, but I held myself back :)


Thanks to these challenges for the inspiration:

 Lawnscaping - Use stars and/or stripes

    What a terrific card! I love the starry world in the background, and the hippo and birdies are just too cute. Super job thinking outside of the patriotic box with the red, white, and blue. Thanks for sharing your card with us at Cards in Envy!
