Focal sentiment/quote WLSC

 

 Hi Everyone, my DT card today is for We Love Stamping. This month, we would love to see your cards with the theme from Karen

Focal sentiment/quote

 
I don't have many large sentiments, but I did find this, one I've hardly used and had for quite a while. I decided I would play on the "star" word. It was stamped, onto navy pearlised paper from my stash and embossed in white. Then using a star stencil to add ink to the side of the card, masking off into the square shape, matching the stamped image. Next, I stamped a single star shape onto a piece of the navy paper, and also embossed it in white and fussy cut it out. 
 
The stamped sentiment was added to the square card, then the star was added, highlighting the star word. I'm hoping it will go to our great nephew, who will have his GCSC's results soon. He is expected to do really well, fingers crossed for him.

I am glad to see you use that stamp. I bet the pearlised paper makes it look even more stunning in real life. Love the addition of the stars too. So sorry for my late visit. Am slowly trying to get caught up xx
