Shoot for the Moon

     Another Friday and another Anything Goes challenge at QKR Stampede.  As always, we also offer you an optional twist on the theme if you want to use it and this week the twist is "Up, up and Away."  I chose this cute QKR image called "Star Catcher" and a QKR sentiment called "Shoot for the Moon."


     I colored with ProMarkers (astronaut) and chalks (sky and stars), then cut the image with a stitched rectangle die by Die-namics.  The frame is cut from dark blue CS with another stitched die from that same set.

     I used a kraft card base and a scrap of dp which has text on it but the text is very hard to see.  I added glittery twine and a sparkly gold star to which I added a blue gemstone star.  I thought that amount of sparkle was OK on an otherwise cute but sort of masculine card.  Or maybe it's just that it's so CAS.

     FYI, this is the 'blue card' I promised as a way to make up for the green one I did when I had in mind my blogging buddy, Lynn.  I knew when I did that other card that blue is her favorite color but that card just needed to be green.   This one works with blue, obviously.  :-D
