You Shine Like the Stars

Yesterday I shared the finished project Mom made with the Kindness Cards Kit – such a fun collection of coaster cards and a tin for storage. I also shared some details around Stampin’ Up!’s Kits Sale – yay! If you missed that post, you can see it here.

Today I’m sharing a sweet-and-simple card I made with one of the stamps in the Kindness Cards Kit. Here’s the 4-1/4″ x 4-1/4″ card:

Cards, It's In the Stars, Stampin Up!, Brian KingThe focal panel on this card is stamped with the It’s In the Stars Background stamp – new in Stampin’ Up!’s 2023 Annual Catalog. I inked the celestial image with Wild Wheat and stamped it on Wild Wheat cardstock before cropping out the 3-1/4″ square. I inked the stamp with Balmy Blue and stamped it onto the 3-3/4″ Balmy Blue layer below it. Here’s a look at the It’s in The Stars stamp set:

With a piece of tape, I masked the “have a great day” that accompanies the “you shine like the stars” sentiment. Here’s a look at the sentiments in the photopolymer stamp set that comes with the Cards of Kindness Card Kit – such a great variety of sentiments:

To pull together all of the colors in one place, I repeated the three colors in the strips of cardstock across the base of the focal panel. If you like this mix of Smoky Slate, Wild Wheat and Balmy Blue as much as I do, I hope you’ll save this for future reference:
