Ink #259 - Technique challenge: Shaped card

For the first time at Inkspirational we have a technique challenge fortnight, and first up is the challenge of SHAPED CARDS. 

I pulled out my new Tonic Studios dies to make my shaped card. I made the layers with a starry DP, gold glitter paper and white cardstock. I used a freebie cloud embossing folder, gold paint for the star splatter and a Stamping Bella stamp. Coloring with metallic watercolor paints. The sentiment is for welcoming  newborn.

Please head over to the challenge blog to see the my INK-teamies have made. 

This card is also for:
Happy Little Stampers
Dies February - Anything Goes with Dies
Sparkles Forum Challenges
- #149 Something Big, Something Small (Tonic Studios frame dies)

I have this set too, bought for albums, but I have never thought to use it for cards. Lovely palette with brown and gold and the choice of the starry DP is so pretty! Love the cutie on the cloud too!

Enchantingly pretty card, dear Pia. It instantly reminds me of the classic children's story, "The Little Prince".

gosh this would be a real challenge for me but you rocked it! Love the elegance of the dies and how you built it up and the use of the gold is perfect. Like you added the splashes of gold too. And such a sweet image-total cutie x

Using a die is great for making shaped cards and I love this one, Pia! (Without a die, they elude my crafty abilities!) That little sweetie sitting on her star could not be more adorable and perfect for a new baby card! Fun that it is shiny, too, with the metallic gold. Hugs, Darnell
