Last night, I was on my way from from working at the mall… Yes, I have a “fun” job.  I work at Yankee Candle in the local mall – I call it mom-time!  Best candles ever at a discount… and I use my paychecks from there to buy Stampin’ Up stuff! Well, that is what paycheck I have left after I buy candles!  Anyways…

Last night, I was driving home from work and admiring the stars.  It’s great to get away from the lights of the big  city – because that’s what Paducah, Kentucky is when you live in a town of 1400.  The stars were shining so bright.  Of course, the glow of the nearly-full moon downed out some of it… but still so pretty.

The drive inspired me so that I created this card…

It uses the same stamp set as yesterday’s card (Star of Light photopolymer stamp set #142110), but with a whole new twist.  I used Gold Embossing Powder (#109129) to create a beautiful night sky.  I also used the Outdoor Adventures Framelits (#141480) to provide the silhouetted trees.  A little bit of Gold Metallic Thread (#138401) and there you go!!!

Okay – if you have read this far then you must really care …  It was cloudy on my way home yesterday… and I CASE’d this card from Carolyn Bennie to use in a swap I recently did.  Here is the original!

I think it came out great.  I just love that Dapper Denim!  What interesting things have you done with this stamp set or die set?

Until next time…  Joanne
