Out of this world - Bonus card

Sheena Douglass and her amazing Design Team had so much fun with the Celestial Scenes stamps from issue 116 that we have an extra card created by Karen Sonnenberg to share with you.

Celestial Scenes stamp set
white A3 cardstock
blue cardstock
Salty Ocean, Peacock Feathers & Blueprint Sketch Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Ink
Paradise & Warm Breeze VersaFine Clair inkpads
Blue Icing WOW! embossing powder
white gel pen
ink-blending tool

How to create
1 Cut A3 cardstock to 40x21cm. Score and fold at 10cm, 15cm, 25cm and 30cm.
2 From another piece of cardstock, create a mask by drawing and cutting a wavy line down the length.
3 Fold the first flap over. Placing a protective layer of paper underneath, mask the first panel lengthways over the card and blend together the three Distress Ink. Continue in this way for the three largest areas.
4 Spritz the inked areas with water and blot dry with kitchen roll.
5 Stamp the sun and moon image onto each panel in a diagonal line using Paradise ink and heat-emboss the first one using Calypso embossing powder. Stamp and heat-emboss an image on white cardstock. Blend ink over it and cut out. Affix over the central image on the card.
6 Stamp additional planets and stars across the three panels and add white highlights to make them stand out.
6 Stamp sentiments on white cardstock and trim into shapes, as shown. Layer onto blue cardstock and trim narrow borders. Affix to the card front as shown.

Top tip
When working on white cardstock in this way, keep your hands clean between each application of ink to avoid accidental blemishes!
