Simon Says Something New!

I used the beautiful Dream Big stamp set and coordinating die set from Hero Arts. This is a new stamp set and die for me.

Here is how I made the card.

1. I created the background using distress inks Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon, Blueprint Sketch, Dusty Concord, Seedless Preserve, Gathered Twigs and Ground Espresso. Sponge and blend till you get a nice blending background.
2. I spattered water on the blue sponged area and dabbed off the excess. Then spattered Opaque white for stars.
3. Black heat emboss the images on bristol paper and watercolour the images. The die cut them using coordinating dies.
4. The images are adhered on the card front. Some flush with glue and some with 3M scotch foam tape.
5. Sentiment is white heat embossed on the bottom right of the panel.
6. Adhered the panel on the card base.
7. Embellished with Nuvo White Blizzard crystal drops.

Here are some closeups of the card.
