Lawn Fawn Out of the World and Beam me Up card set with Galaxy backgrounds

In preparation for my recent art show, I worked with these galaxy backgrounds and my Lawn Fawn space stamp and die sets.  I kind of went wild, coloring planet and little characters.


I sponged the brighter oxide inks first, then I layered black soot on top.  I splattered pearly spray ink on the very top for a super galaxy look.  I went back and added more splatters again and again until I achieved my desired results.  I watched several you tube videos and created all the backgrounds in one day.



While the backgrounds dried (spray ink), I stamped and embossed dozens of images of planets, aliens, astronauts, and space vehicles.



I spent a lot of time coloring the images with alcohol ink pens.  I did use some metallic inks on special places.  I combined all my images on top of the backgrounds to come up with complimentary designs.  Finally I stamped and die cut sentiments for each card.




In addition I would like to note at my recent art show this is the only other design besides the coffee cup gift card holder of which I sold out.  I guess they were a hit!  So time consuming, maybe I should have sold them for more.  I believe the same lady bought them for all her grandchildren.


Ingredients:
Lawn Fawn die and stamp sets:  Out of the World and Beam me up
Tim Holtz Oxide inks:  black soot, worn lipstick, fossilized amber, broken china, and cracked pistachio 
Avery Elle Pierced Cloud die
Spellbinders label die
Frantic Stamper stitched rounded rectangle dies
Pearl shimmer ink 
Colorbox black pigment ink with Judikins Clear/Black detail embossing powder mix
Alcohol markers and metallic silver pen

I would like to enter this in the following challenges:








Thanks so much for stopping by!
