I am elated to be a part of the Top 6 for the My Favorite Things Stamping Idol. Our challenge this week was to make a one layer card.
I stamped the astronaut image from the My Favorite Things set Ben Paper Dolls with Colorbox black pigment ink onto black cardstock. I then added black embossing powder and heat embossed this image. I took a Versamark marker and drew the horizon/moon line on the card, and used black embossing powder to heat emboss the line. At this point, I took a Brilliance Moonlight white pigment pad and smeared the ink directly onto the black cardstock to create the moon. I used Prismacolor pencils to create the astronaut's shadow and a few moon craters. I painted the astronaut with Brilliance Moonlight reinker. I colored the shoes, glove and part of the mask with Prismacolor pencils, and used a Sakura glitter pen for a little bit of sparkle on the mask and the astronaut's patches. The stars and the doodle bordering were made with a white gel pen.
