Ok. I got home this morning from working midnights and decided it was more important to stay up and make a card for this challenge than go to sleep. So if it's a little weird, it's because I've been up for 24+ hours now....a little obsessed with stamping???
I kinda like the end result though. I use glossy white cardstock to give the illusion of white glass, then ran it through my cuttlebug embosser. I would definitely not try to heat emboss those little chipboard stars again, especially on no sleep...they were quite frustrating to manipulate!
Thanks for looking!

This is so artistic! I love the way you used the geometrics in different sizes and textures. A great interpretation of the inspiration...gotta love those punches! And I love that you only chose a few of them to add the brads to, really accents them instead of cluttering the card. I'm thinking maybe I should get a 2nd or 3rd shift job so I can have some "quality" stamping time in the middle of the night while the family is sleeping. It sure works for you!
