Shoot for the Moon

Happy hump day everyone.. thanks for coming by.

Today is my day to share at the  Stampotique Designer's Blog

I hope you will stop by and check out my creation for this week.

The new Design Team Challenge this week is all about "Something New", did you get something new for Christmas? If so, we want you to use it in your creation and link it up 

HERE

For this creation I used Stampotique Stamps:

Shoot For the Moon - Amy Wilson Wellenstein

Stella - Jo Capper-Sandon

Tenticurl - Jo Capper-Sandon

I wanted to use another of  my ATB's or Artists Trading Blocks and use one for this little box.

This is a new die by Eileen Hull and Sizzix and it's fantastic!! I really love it and they are available HERE if you want to check out the die.
Also, make sure to stop by The Artists On the Block Blog, you can see many fun creations with these

First thing I did was take two colors of my Tim Holtz distress paints and colored my entire block, inside and out. I then took a star stencil and used Archival ink to stencil stars onto my block here and there. I also used my white gel pen to create more starts by just dotting white dots all over the block pieces

I didn't take a photo of this part but I free hand drew a "cloud" in the center of one of the sides of my block. I then took my Xacto knife and cut it out so I could see inside 

I stamped my Stampotique images and colored them with Copic markers, I adhered the "Stella" to the tenticurl stamp with glue

I used some scratch card stock to adhere my gal inside the block in the correct spot. You can see in this photo how I did that so that she would sit perfectly without bending backwards

I then put my block together and added a flower and sentiment to the top portion. I also added a few stick pens with gems

I added a vintage button for the center of the flower

I love the way you can see inside and there are stars all around
