This theme is right up my ally! Making backgrounds is awesome. I really enjoy making them and they turn out differently everytime. For this challenge, I wanted to do something very simple. I simply stamped the images on the background and coloured using copic markers.

I used Lawn Fawn’s Out of this World stamp set here. I simply randomly stamped the images and watercoloured them using copic marker. It was calming colouring images. I enjoyed it.  I also outlined the images with gray marker pen for shadow effect.

For the focal point, I popped up the astronaut image by stamping the image on a scrap piece of paper, copic colouring and die cutting using the coordinating die. The sentiment is white heat embossed on black strips of cardstock and adhered using foam adhesives. Just to bring the card together I added sparkly clear sequins.

Here is the closeup of the card.

All the supplies used to make this card are listed below for you.
