Make a Wish


Hello, it's Connie here with you today, sharing a starry night birthday wishes card.

I wish I had a stamp that said Wish upon a Star, I think that would have went better with this, and after I had the card all done I thought I could have done a sentiment on my computer for it, but there is always next time, right :)


My background was done using the Memory Box, Starry night background die.  I cut it out twice, once in the blue and then again using DCWV Foil paper in silver, so that I could inlay them in the stars that pop out.  Next I cut out the Impression Obsessions, City Landscape layer dies there are two dies in the set, one I cut from a gray that had a texture look to it and then the background one I cut from black cardstock.

Here is a close up picture of the background.  I love how it cuts and embosses so you get cut outs of the stars and also embossed stars.


Instead of adding back in all those tiny dots that cut out I added Diamond Stickles in those holes to give it more shimmer.  Lastly I added the sentiment stamp from Gina Marie stamps, Birthday words stamp set.

Here are the dies used in this card (links above in the description)

  5. I had been looking for a city scape die and this one looks great -- you get two in the set; that makes the work so much easier. I also love that star background. Thank you for sharing these dies. It's always nice seeing the dies in use and how they look IRL. Great card!
