Hi friends! Today I’m sharing a super fun birthday card featuring products from Trinity Stamps, and this one is totally galaxy inspired. I started by stamping the images I wanted to use from the Another Orbit Stamp Set with a black alcohol marker friendly ink, then colored everything in with my Ohuhu Honolulu alcohol markers. Once the coloring was done, I used the Another Orbit Coordinating Die Set to die cut all of the images. I also stamped the sentiments using VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink, including “Happy Birthday” (die cut with the coordinating die) and “Another Orbit Complete” stamped right inside the little flag on one of the images for an extra cute detail.

Next, I created my background using an A2 panel of white mixed media cardstock and ink blended a dreamy galaxy using Simon Hurley create. Stellar Inks in Guppy, Later Gator, Tropical Tango, Midnight Snack, and Black Widow. After my ink blending was finished, I splattered on black luster, bleed proof white paint, and clear shimmer glitter to give the whole panel a starry, dimensional look. Once everything was completely dry, I die cut the panel with the rectangle die that has the angled cut detail, then die cut the smaller angled section again from black mixed media cardstock. To bring it all together, I die cut a thin strip using a die from Emergency Card Essentials Die Set #1 from silver glitter cardstock and glued it on top of the angled cut area like a sparkly connector. I adhered the finished panel onto an A2 card base, then popped up my astronauts, moon, planet, and the “happy birthday” sentiment with 1mm foam adhesive. To finish the scene, I added the comet and three stars with liquid glue for a little extra galaxy magic.
