Happy Birthday Human

Hi there,

it's time for the Gerda Steiner Designs Blog Hop to launch two fabulous new stamp sets and this is my creation:



  • create a galaxy background on stitched watercolor paper panel using Distress Paints (Broken China, Tumbled Glass, Spun Sugar, Shaded Lilac, Chipped Sapphire, Picket Fence)
  • color the images from the brand new Gerda Steiner Designs Alien Invasion stamp set with Delta, DIY and Touch Twin Markers and add highlights with a white gel pen
  • use double-sided foam tape to adhere all the elements
  • add some dots using a silver and a white gel pen and LittleThings from Lucy's Cards Fairy Dust
  • finish the card by adding a strip of silver glitter cardstock to the right side of the card before adhering it to a white cardbase

Please, also visit the other blogs, leave a comment and have the chance to win one out of 3 coupons to the Gerda Steiner Designs store.
$25 Coupon

All comments must be made by Sunday, April 17th at 11.59 pm PST.
