Star Light, Star Bright

Published by Michele Boyer at 10:15 am under Cornish Heritage Farms, My Designs

Happy Thursday!  It’s almost the weekend!  Wow…this week is really going fast.  I thought for sure we’d have some delayed school openings due to icy conditions but no…instead we’ve had 33 degrees with pouring rain.  Nice.  (I *hate* rain in the “winter.”)  I know a lot of you have been bombarded with way too much snow, but we’d like just a little.  A couple inches?  Enough to make those snow boots worth having?  :)

Today’s challenge at Splitcoast Stampers is to use stars.  Since I’m sitting around, tapping fingers, waiting as patiently as possible for Kim’s new sets, I thought I’d use her Baby Love set with a few stars added in.

I stamped a tiny star in each of the circles on the one background paper, then covered a chipboard star with a coordinating pattern, layering a star ghost shape on top.  I punched two holes using my Crop-a-dile and tied some ribbon in my star “button.”  (I colored over the ribbon with a very light biege Copic marker to tone down the “whiteness.”)

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I’ll be back tomorrow!  I’m working on a cute idea for My Favorite Things’ adorable little Valentine Flopsey!  :)  Have a great day!

    Sweet card…love the sentiment and the way you did the star. We’ve been getting snow, but then it’s melted within 2 days, just doesn’t want to stick around!

    This is adorable, Michele!! I love the images, patterned paper, stitching, and your star embellishment!!

    (We had LOTS of nice snow, and DH made the kids a very cool sled/snowboard run down our hill. Then it rained and wiped all of the snow out. Since then we’ve had rain, ice, and snow. Is it spring yet??)
