Outta' This World

Happy Monday! Boy-oh-boy do I have tons of phone calls to make and errands to run today! I filled out so many forms this past weekend and they were all for my son who will be entering the 8th grade next school year. This packet was horrendous {pinky promise!} Medical forms, athletic forms, Ohana {family} Directory forms, Financial Aid and Tax Info forms...He even got his summer reading assignment in this packet!! Hello, didn't Spring Break just end??





Well, moving on to a funner subject, {I'm not even sure that funner is actually a word}, humm spellcheck says it is. Oki-do-ki then. Today's project is a card I made for my husband's nephew's birthday. Happy Birthday Hanalei!!

I ran a piece of Ballet Blue CS (100613 $5.50) through the Big Shot (113439 $99.95) texturizing it using the diamond shape from the Backgrounds I Texturez Plates (114512 $11.95). Then I took a piece of Basic Black CS (102851 $7.50) and stamped it randomly with the star image from the retired Little Sayings set in Whisper White Craft ink (101731 $7.50). I've been wanting to add some tearing to my projects and adding the "black space" to this card was a perfect opportunity. The Space Shuttle is one of the images from the Pun Fun set (115054 $32.95). I stamped the image in Jet Black StazOn ink (101406 $7.95) on Watercolor Paper (105019 $6.95) and watercolored the image with my Watercolor Pencils (101879 $19.95) and Blender Pen (102845 $9.95). I cut out the image and popped it up on Deminsionals (104430 $3.95) For the Earth I took my 1-3/4" Circle punch (112004 $15.95) and punched the corner of a piece of blue and green scrap, folded over the corner and added a pewter brad from the Vintage brad collection (109109 $8.95) I finished off the front of the card off by adding dots between the stars with my white uni-ball Signo Gel Pen (105021 $3.95). On the inside I printed on the computer "You're Outa' This World!"

I better get started on my phone calls. Till my next post...Toodles!
