I saw this sketch on Tamara's sketch challenge blog. I thought of my Western Sky designer paper, Wanted stamp set and star punch right away. This came together pretty easily. The star alone didn't have enough of an impact so I punched another in Blue Bayou to shadow it. It still wasn't enough so I punched another star out in Blue Bayou to shadow it on the other side. It still wasn't enough so I made a square base in Soft Sky backed by Blue Bayou to have the stars on. I spiral punched the edge of the Soft Sky and sponged it with Blue Bayou ink to distress it a bit.
Recipe:
Stamps: Wanted, Sincere Salutations
Ink: Blue Bayou
Paper: Western Sky dp, Soft Sky, Blue Bayou, River Rock
Other: Large and small star punch, vintage brads, photo corner punch, sponge, key tag punch, stampin' dimensionals.
