Starry Night

Photo Details

Poster: naturecoastcrafter

For some reason, the quote spoke Van Gogh to me and that's the direction I wanted to go! I really enjoyed completing this card. I just want to say also, "Good Luck to all the stampers who are trying for the Winter Design Team."

The image was made by emboss resist with the Whimsy Wheel and then sponging the blues and yellows. Stickles were added for more of the stars.

This is beautiful! You accomplished your goal as I immediately thought 'Van Gogh' when I saw your card.
