My first uploaded challenge and unfortunately not as successful as I'd like, but oh well. It is funny though.
I've only done the "galaxy" technique once before and it wasn't on watercolor paper for practice.
Stamped the moon with Altenew's layered moon with their gray inks (I'll give details once my niece is off my lap).
After it dried, heat embossed with clear.
Sponged randomly with distress inks (yellow, purple, blue).
Heat set, then sponged Black soot all over.
Wiped ink off the moon.
Added drops of water to images to reactivate the distress ink to lighten it up.
Heat embossed a couple of other items.
Stamped and colored Tim Holtz crazy dog, fussy cut, and popped him up.
On the inside, I just have the dog outline in black, color in red, tag in silver with the phrase "PARTY ON" beside him.
I think I'll use him for a birthday card.
Hope you giggled just a tad.

Deborah, so happy you are joining the DTGD challenges. I love your big ol' moon. Great job with your galaxy technique. I'm sure it was hard working with your niece on your lap...but we crafters do what we need to do, right? :-)
I think your dog is howling at the moon and that airplane.
I won't say 'hugaroonies' because that is yours...just huggies.

I'm so honored that you did my challenge first! Your humor totally comes through in this card - it's the first stamped Crazy Dog I've seen, so that makes me happy too. Thank you so much for playing along with me, and for supporting Splitcoast as a Fan Club Member!
