This card has a lot of shimmer and sparkle to it, and it's difficult to capture that in the photos. I started off by making a navy blue Slimline Card and used the Falling Stars Die to cut the stars from a navy panel. I backed the opening area with gold glitter card stock so it shines through the star openings.
I couldn't resist the Show Ponies set when it was released - Olivia (granddaughter) and Hannah ('Daughter in law') love horses. Hannah's Mom has a horse and often takes Olivia for riding lessons, which just thrills all of us.
I added extra shimmer & shine to this horse with both a gold gel and black glaze pens. I pulled out my very old Rub Ons, and rubbed the grass piece with a blue metallic one, and then the upper hills with a gold. Ha - you should have seen my finger tip when I was finished all that rubbing! I didn't think the colour would come off for days. (It did, ha ha). Then I added a 'moon' cut from the glittered card stock with a circle die.
Inside I used the Falling Stars die once again, this time cutting them from a white panel and rubbing the opening with gold Rub Ons. I added one more sparkly pony to the bottom but there is still lots of room to write a message.
I adhered some of the navy fall away stars back onto the card front, rubbing them with copper Rub Ons. While it may look dark and blobby in the photos, it's quite pretty in real life.
