The moonlit sky

Hello it's time for my fortnightly design team post for Visible Image. Today I am sharing a card and bookmark made for my Mum's upcoming birthday. I have told her not to read this blog post until after next Monday! She and I have a "thing" about the Man in the Moon

I always love a full moon and snapped these photos recently.

So of course I had to use the awesome new Midnight sky set for her card and bookmark. 

with the Happy birthday sentiment

Just a little heads up that Visible Image have a Black Friday sale on until 30th November and the happy birthday set is in the sale at the incredible  price of £3.99. Stock is limited and some products are  reduced by up to70%. 

So back to my make, this is what I got up to.

I used these distress  spray stains to ink a sheet of mixed media card.

I cut myself 2 pieces, one for the card and 1 for the bookmark. I realized that if I made a slimline card the bookmark would not get creased in the post as it could tuck inside the card. My Mum is an avid reader so I know this will get lots of use. 

I stamped the verse and my images in black , sorry I cut the top of this photo!

I used gold ink and the star swoosh to link up my images

I stamped and gold embossed the large star for extra shine. 

For the card I also stamped the moon and large star onto an inky off cut and added them for extra dimension and focus. I didn't do this for the bookmark as I didn't want them to rub inside a book.

 

I coloured the stars on the card in gold pen and those on the bookmark in silver.

Here is my card finished

with its matching bookmark.

and one last shot.
