It's time for a new challenge at Time Out. This time we have a theme challenge - seeing stars. You can interpret that in so many ways from celestial stars, rock stars, movie stars, constellations, moon & stars, stars on flags... the list goes on and on.
Now, on to my card. I received a Betterpress System for my birthday and today is the first day I opened the box. I had some play time recently at the home of a dear friend where she taught me the Betterpress ropes. She also gifted me this wonderful press plate. I just LOVE it, and the giver. This card is made with her in mind. Thank you, friendy dear. Your friendship certainly does light up my heart! I inked the press plate with Betterpress Black Ink and fussy cut it so that I could mount it on this black panel that I stenciled with Lunar Paste. I sure do love that stuff!! I added a Betterpress sentiment from the same plate set, popped it up with a little foam strip and my card was complete!
