Today I’m sharing
a birthday card for my niece featuring the fun Space Cadet Tia from Some Odd Girl.
My niece is a bit
of Star Wars tragic (takes after her dad on that much to her mother’s disgust) so
I couldn’t go past this cute image, especially as it reminds me a bit of
her. Over at Use Your Stuff they are
looking for Star Wars or galaxy themed projects. I have to admit I am one of about two people on
earth who’ve never seen a Star Wars movie so no idea if Tia looks anything like
a character from there. But I do have a
sparkly blue background (meant to be the starry outer space) and a space cadet with
a laser gun so am thinking I fit the galaxy part so am entering my card in the challenge.
The Paper Players
have a fun tic-tac-toe board and I’ve chosen the middle horizontal row to help
make up my card. I’ve got a die cut for
my sentiment, yellow accents on Tia and the laser beam and sequins to form part
of the laser beam. To help tie in the colours
I coloured up a bit of Curious Metallics card in the same yellows I used on Tia
before die cutting my sentiment.
As this card is
CAS and features glitter (in my paper, the cleanest way of using glitter by
far) and sequins I am also entering it in the current challenge at CAS onSunday. This had started out as the year
of the shaker for me but I keep going back to CAS, which I fell in love with
last year, so it’s good to be using my shaker mixes in non-shaker card ways.
