simple cosmic card


I am calling this one The Cosmic card. I think it would be a great card for a guy with no  particular interests or hobbies. its colourful  which makes a change from the  usual browns, blues and greys.
To make this card I started by brushing the centre of my 5x5 whisper white card.  
Then I brushed around  the edges with melon mambow, mossy meadow, gorgeous grape, and balmy blue. I splattered bleach over the inked card to create the white patches.
Then it was just a case of cutting several happy birthdays, gluing and stacking them  before sticking them in the centre of the card. I added a layer of black card underneath and  trimmed it back to 1/16th of an inch for a narrow border. I added a few tiny gem stones for sparkle as a finishing touch.



I decided to do a rectangular version to see if it worked as well as the square.  I added some glitter to this one instead of gem stones.
