Shine like the whole universe is yours...

 

 

Hey friends!

Well, we've finally made it to the last day of Stamping Bella new release sneak peeks. That means tomorrow we will finally be able to shop this fabulous new selection of stamps! Just to refresh, there are 36 new stamp sets coming to the shop tomorrow and we are wrapping things up with the ever adorable Tiny Townies. There are several being showcased over on the Bellarific blog which you will want to check out for a chance to win a gift certificate... in the mean time I am sharing the super cute Tiny Townie Astronauts here.

I've made two cards using the Tiny Townie Astronauts set along with the new Starry Sky backdrop. First up are the girls and these STEM stars are exploring the universe together one planet at a time. Once I had colored them both I masked them off and stamped the Starry Sky Backdrop right over them. Once that was done I grabbed my Copic airbrush system to create the colorful galaxy look. Being my first attempt with a galaxy I ended up being a tad heavy handed on the black and covered up a lot more of the background stamp detail than I wanted to. But you live and you learn and I did much better on my second attempt with the boys. It also really came to life when I tapped some watered down Dr PH Martins bleed proof white over top to add more stars off in the distance.

And here are the boys rocketing through the cosmos. They got the same masking and airbrush treatment as the girls, though you can see that I was able to leave a lot more the of the Starry Sky Backdrop showing.  :)

Well I hope you've enjoyed this week of previews and have started filling out your wish list for tomorrow... live long and prosper!
