AAA Cards Challenge #249

Hey there. This was a true challenge for me. How do you create a galaxy and keep your card clean and simple? So this is a great challenge at AAA Cards for all of us. 

 

I started with the Ellen Hutson Wonky Backdrops stamp in my stamp positioner. Inking the star background stamp with various ink colors on a white panel. Then using navy ink I carefully inked the stamp using a blending brush to soften the navy over the other colors. Using metallic watercolors I added a bit of splatter.

I added some gold embossed stars from the same set and also heat embossed the greetings form Ellen's Totally Random Sayings on a scrap of vellum. I trimmed my star panel down and tied the vellum strip to the star panel with metallic gold thread. Then using foam tape, I mounted the panel to a navy top folding card base.

We're having a

DT call!

We're looking for a few new Design Team members to start January of 2024.

If you like making CAS cards as we know them, and would like to be on our team, then make a card for this and the next challenge and put DT behind your name.

Our definition of CAS is:

-Minimal noise

-One focus image/point

-Minimal  or no layers (max 3)

-Minimal or no embellishments

-Maximum empty space (empty/white space means no textured cardbase)

See our Design team makes if you're unsure.

The DT call will wrap up with the next challenge.

There's no monetary reward, just your chance to showcase your work and build your name, we all do it because we love it.

the current Admin and DT will choose the players that entered the challenges.

You should have a FB account as we handle most  things DT on FB (chat and upload photos.

A blog is handy to schedule posts, but not a must, just preferred as our challenges go live at 8AM UK time and  as we welcome DT members from all over the World, your time zone might not be the easiest to go live at the right time. If you have an IG or FB business account your can schedule posts.

We would like to invite new DT members from November 1st so you have time to work on the challenges , we've already published the challenges for 2024 so everyone can work ahead, it's important to be able to stick to deadlines.

Also it's important to comment positively on entries from players , and you will have a column. This is most important as we rely on our players for the challenge to exist.

Good luck, if you have any questions, please email Maaike

I can't wait to see what you guys come up with for this out of this world challenge. Sorry, I know that was corny, but I couldn't help it. LOL.
