If you arrive from the blog of the talented Jaycee Gaspar, you are in the right place.
If not, come and join the fun hop for ideas and inspiration.
For my project, I actually Google the image of Stargazer and loved all kinds of images that the search engine came up. I also have a blouse that has the Stargazer design....
From what I can see, Stargazer can come in multi-colors and each flower looks different from the next. I decided to take a pink/purple approach with some silver highlight!

I really had fun stamping all the layers of Stargazer. I followed the guide and changed up the colors with the variation of pink and purple.
However, the best part of this card is all that background.
I love how soft and gorgeous it looks against the white cardstock.
You may know this TIP already....
That is, instead of cutting up the flowers and leaves for masking, simply use the coordinating dies for your masking. This is so effective, convenient and less time-consuming!

If you are intrigued by my silver color in this, that is because I highlighted it with one of the brush markers Silver Metallic from Winter Watercolor Brush Markers.
I hope that you like my version of Stargazer!
