Welcome to this week's color challenge! I'm hosting with Rich Razzleberry + Night of Navy + Seaside Spray with heat embossing for dessert.
I started this card with 1 sheet each of Seaside Spray and Night of Navy attached edge to edge with one sided tape in the back. Then I die cut the swirly stars across the "seam". After removing all of this, just leaving the outline (and trimming it down to an A2 size), I die cut a second swirly stars from Sparkle Glimmer paper and cleared out all of the removable pieces. I embossed a set of stars that can be cut with this same die - in Shimmer White embossing powder on Seaside Spray and did a 3rd die cut.
I assembled all of this dies onto a top fold thick Whisper White card base with a layer of Rich Razzleberry on top so that it shows through the "unreplaced" parts of the swirly stars die.
A little ribbon with some left over glittery stars, along with a greeting stamped in Night of Navy and the card is done!
Thanks for checking out my card and I really hope that you will have a chance to join us this week!
