Kendra here from Luv 2 Scrap n' Make Cards to share another card featuring the NEW Moon and Stars stamp set from the Celestial Collection:
This time I created an Edge to Edge Shaker card! I love shaker cards, but have never tried this kind. I just love how it turned out!
For my card base, I used some Distress Oxide inks in shades of blue. I then stamped some of the stars in white ink randomly to make my paper.
I stamped the sentiment on the circle from the Scallop Circle Nesting Die Setand then used one of the scallop layers for behind.
I once again used Distress Oxide inks to ink a piece of white cardstock, then stamp one of the half moon images and die cut. I then used pop dots to add to the top of my shaker. I also die cut a few stars from silver mirror card to add to the front!
Hey Y'all!!! Isn't the sky just a beautiful place. Full of the moon and these wonderful stars all shining bright. What a great stamp set to tell someone that you love them. Be sure to check out the new Celestial Collection at Prickley Pear. The Moon and Stars stamp & die set are just one set in a beautiful collection. All the details for making this card yourself are below (including links).
I started by stamping and coloring the moon and several stars on Neenah Classic Crest Solar White paper and coloring it with Copic markers.
COPIC MARKERS:
• Stars & Moon (Y17, B66)
PAPER & EVERYTHING ELSE
• Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb Paper
• Card Stock - Starry Sky, Crushed Curry, Basic White
The card base is cut from Starry Sky card stock. It's cut to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4" on the long side. Just a tip I learned. Make sure you use your bone folder and burnish the fold well so it doesn't tear the fold.
I cut a piece of Crushed Curry card stock to 5 3/8" x 4 1/8". It's glued directly to the card base using wet glue. Cut a piece of Basic White card stock to 5 1/4" x 4". Used a small brush to color the front of the white card stock with Chipped Sapphire Oxide Ink. Embossed it with a star embossing folder and ran the Oxide Ink pad of Antique Linen across the stars to lift them up a little off the page. Glued this piece directly to the Crushed Curry card stock with wet glue.
I cut two strings of stars using Crushed Curry card stock and an old stars borders set I had laying around. Brushed the strings of stars with Chipped Sapphire Oxide Ink and added a little sparkle with some Glitz Glitter Gel. The strings are glued from the left to right side of the card at a pretty angle.
The moon and stars from the Prickley Pear stamp set are adhered to the card using foam tape so they pop up out of the night sky.
The sentiment is stamped on Basic White card stock with Starry Sky ink. I used my blending brush to add a little Chipped Sapphire Oxide Ink to the background of the sentiment so it wasn't so bright white. Cut it out with a beautiful die and used foam tape to pop it up on the card.

Decided to make a circle opening on my card front so I could have the moon and stars spin when you open the card!! It's been awhile since I made a fun spinner card like this. Thought this new stamp set was the perfect opportunity to make one!
The darker blue and white cardstock are really striking together! Makes the moon really stand out!!
Hi friends! I am so excited to share this fun card with you using the brand-new release! I love the Moon and Stars Stamp Set so much. It is perfect for so many occasions.
I created a card that I thought would be perfect for a new baby, but it could also be used to tell someone how much that you love them!
I decided to try my hand at some no-line coloring, as the images are simple. I used a pale ink to stamp them and then I colored them with alcohol markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out and set them aside.
I love any excuse to work on my ink blending skills, so I created a fun night sky background using Distress Oxide Inks along with some water splatter. When the background was dry, I adhered it to a yellow panel and a navy card base.
I wanted my card to have some movement, so when I die-cut the images, I also cut extras from plain white card stock. I placed a piece of fishing twine between the colored stars and the white stars, and then I strung them all between the two moon pieces. I popped the moon up on foam dots so that the stars could dangle.
To finish my card, I made a fun bow and glued a white button to it, followed by some sequins to add a bit of sparkle.
I absolutely love this card, and I hope you do too!
Please make sure to head over to the shop and check out this beautiful release!
Thanks for spending a few minutes with me! Xoxo, Kim
