Card of the Day - Stellar Birthday

 Hello and welcome back! This is my 300th post - that's a lot of cards! Today's card is for a 5-year-old's birthday.

The card base is Misty Moonlight and the next layer is Balmy Blue, which has been inked with Misty Moonlight using Blending Brushes. I die cut it with the largest Stitched Rectangle Die, and then used one of the stencils from the March 2021 Paper Pumpkin kit to add the stars with Embossing Paste. The moon is a die-cut circle of Smoky Slate that has been sponge daubered with Gray Granite ink. The astronaut and dog were stamped with Memento ink, colored with Stampin' Blends and fussy cut. Unfortunately, the dog lost his bone when I did that. :(

This design was inspired by the sketch challenge at Hand Stamped Sentiments.

Thanks for stopping by, and happy stamping!
