Simon Hurley create. Galaxy Father's Day Card by Cassie Trask

This out-of-this-world Father's Day card by Cassie Trask features a galaxy background that’s perfectly blended and incredibly vibrant—thanks to the new Simon Hurley create. Stellar Inks and Blending Brush! The seamless blends and rich, glowing color make this cosmic design truly stellar. 


Instructions 

Hi there everyone! Today’s card has me so excited, because we are making a galaxy background using the new Stellar Inks. These inks are so vibrant and blend so beautifully with the new Blending Brushes. Let’s get started with our card. 

 

Step 1: Trim a piece of Stark White cardstock down to 4” x 5 ¼, and start blending all over your panel using the Blending Brushes and the High Tide, Shooting Star, and Prom Queen Stellar Inks. 

 

Step 2: Using a Blending Brush and some Black Widow Stellar Ink, blend your color all over the panel being sure to let some of that color peek through.  

 

 

Step 3: Splatter some Picket Fence Distress Paint all over the panel using a stamp block and a small paint brush. Keep in mind that the color will dry back a bit. Now set that off to the side to dry. 

 

Step 4: Stamp your image using the Archival Jet Black ink. 

 

Step 5: Using a waterbrush, watercolor your image using some High Tide and Guppy Stellar Inks 

 

Step 6: Die cut your image. 

 

Step 7: If you need more images to really make your background pop, follow steps 4 through 6. 

 

 

Step 8: Stamp your sentiment with Archival Jet Black ink, and color strips of Stark White Cardstock using some Guppy Stellar Ink. 

 

 

Step 9: Assemble your card together and use foam tape to adhere your images and sentiment to your card.
