love you to the moon and back

Hi friends! I’m baaack after a five week long hiatus without internet and man, it feels GOOD to be back in the saddle! I’m lucky to have had a few projects done ahead of time with pre-scheduled posts to tide me over so you wouldn’t totally miss me, lol! I’m up on the Prickley Pear Stamps blog today with an inspiration project featuring the Moon and Stars stamps and coordinating Moon and Stars dies which are part of the amazing Celestial Collection! It’s always fun to have a variety of cute ‘love you just because’ cards in your stash, and these stamps and dies are just the ticket!

I cut a standard size A2 top-folding landscape card base from Neenah Classic Crest 110# Solar White cardstock along with a layering panel from a red patterned paper in the Keep It Simple Ruby 12 x 12 Collection. Using a My Favorite Things Stitched Mini Scallop circles STAX die, I die cut a mini stitched scalloped circle from a coordinating red patterned paper in the same 12 x 12 Collection along with a larger scalloped circle (using a Spellbinders Classic Scalloped Circles Large die) from Solar White cardstock, and adhered them together. 

I stamped several elements from the Moon and Stars stamps, colored them with alcohol markers, and cut them with the coordinating Moon and Stars dies. I stamped the sentiment in Versamark and heat embossed it with Hero Arts White embossing powder. I added several Eyelet Outlet red gemstones which completed the card.
