giveaway … night and morning sky

Hello Friends, How are  you today? I hope you had a lovely and relaxing weekend with some sunny skies. Speaking of skys …… I had some fun creating the sky on my card. The night sky is peeled back to reveal the morning sky at the top of the card. GIVEAWAY:
The wood veneer stars I am giving away. I hear that they are hard to keep in stock at Simon Says Stamp. You know the drill by now…just leave a comment and I will randomly draw a winner the end of next week. (If you want to spread the news of my giveaway on FB or your blog you can add your name again in the comment area for an extra chance to win 🙂 
This transparent stamp set is from Penny Black called, “Love is in the Air” and I find it to be such a versatile set . I stamped the “Crystal Background” with this ink … then added some distress inks. 
I drew some random patches resembling fields and colored with some markers. When I was finished I added “Mowed Lawn” to shade the landscape.  
I used a white gel pen to color the wood veneer stars & once they were dry I gingerly added a touch of yellow with a Copic marker in the right corners. (white gel and copic markers aren’t to friendly)
Add Glossy Accents on the stars and the airplane. Do you like my peeled away sky??
Thank You again for your visit…always so appreciated. Hugs, Kathy

    Your colorful sky is gorgeous and love how you created your field below. Very clever! Thanks, Kathy, for the chance to win wood veneer stars because they always show “out of stock” when I click the link to get some.

    Like the bright colors on your card! Thanks for given me a good idea to use the little wooden stars that I have for such a long time in my stash… Hugs, Gerrina

    What a beautiful sky! Your card is gorgeous. Thanks for the giveaway. You’re so right that they are hard to get a hold of at SSS. Every time I try, they’re out of stock. 🙁

    What a great unique card! You really created a fun scene! Those stars are cute, I’d love the chance to win, thank you! Hugs, Hanneke

    Your peeled away sky is a delight & I love the way you curled the sentiment about too. The wavy bottom border is a lovely touch & I must admit I love your landscape – it’s always a delight to visit & see what you’ve come up with & often there’s a little tip included (big tip here about white gel pen & Copics not being best friends).
    Thanks again.

    Great card, Kathy! I love the glossy accented stars and plane – my favorite part, though, is the peeled back sky! Here comes the sun!!

  42. Krista W says

    I love it! Your cards are always filled with great details, the peeled page to reveal daylight, the glossy highlights, the banner that appears to wrap around the edge, fabulous!

    The peeled corner is so fun, as is the plane, the stars and your landscape! I love the stars unfinished, but the way you colored them is wonderful! Thanks for sharing and for the chance to win!

    I love how you made the farmland look. It reminds me of when I was flying into France as a teenager–gorgeous! I also love the shiny airplane

    SUPER cute idea with the peel away sky – you are SO creative!!! Thanks for the chance to win the stars – they are almost as unattainable as the real ones (LOL)!!!

    Hi Kathy, you are so right, star wood veener is always out of stock at SSS. I still haven’t got the chance to buy it. Thanks for the giveaway.

    Yes, these wood veneer stars ARE hard to get a hold of. Thanks so much for the chance to win some. Love your card! The stars against the blue stamped sky are perfect.
