Here is my card!

I just love how this card came together!

Directions For The Card Front:

Cut Night Of Navy Card Stock to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4". This is the card base.

Cut Basic White C/S to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8" and attach to the Night Of Navy card base.

Cut a piece of Boho Blue C/S to 5 1/8" x 4".

Using the new "Stars At Night Stamp Set" and Night Of Navy Ink stamp some stars on the upper left and lower right bottom of the Boho C/S layer using second generation ink. **Tip, I inked up the stamp, stamped off once onto scrap paper then stamped onto the layer. This is called second generation inking. If you want an even lighter look, stamp off two times onto scrap paper for a third generation inking.

Using the edge of your Paper Snips, rough up the edges of the Boho C/S layer. Attach this layer to the card base using Dimensionals.

Cut a piece of Night Of Navy C/S to 5 3/8" x 1 1/2". 

Cut a piece of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper to 5 3/8" x 1 3/8" and attach it to the Night Of Navy C/S strip. I used the piece that has the white dots with the Night Of Navy background.

Cut 2- 6 1/2" pieces of the new "Night Of Navy & Gold Glittered Ribbon". Attach them to the Night Of Navy/DSP strip, using tape to adhere the ribbon to the back. Using Tear And Tape Adhesive, attach this strip to the card base.

Die cut a 2 1/2" circle using Basic White C/S and the Layering Circles Dies or a punch.

Punch out a circle using Vellum C/S and the Decorative Circle Punch.

Stamp a star using Night Of Navy Ink and the "Stars At Night Stamp Set" onto the Vellum circle. Set aside to dry. Once dry, attach the Vellum circle to the Basic White circle then using Dimensionals attach it to the card base. 

Cut a 1/2" x 4 1/2" strip from a lighter piece of the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. Stamp the sentiment using Night Of Navy Ink. Flag cut one end and attach to the card front using Tear And Tape Adhesive.

I added a Linen Thread bow and some new gold "Blooming Pearls" to finish off the card front.

Directions For The Card Inside:

Cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White C/S.

Stamp some stars down the right side using the "Stars At Night Stamp Set" and Night Of Navy Ink third generation. 

Cut a thin strip of the One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and attach to the bottom of the layer. Attach this layer to the inside of the card. 

This card has lots of sparkle and small details. 

Happy Stamping And Creating!
