Hello, crafters and happy Thursday!! I’m sharing a birthday card featuring one of my favorite sets from the April Trinity Stamps release, the Astronomical Gnomes Stamp Set!!

I started by stamping the adorable images in the Astronomical Gnomes Stamp Set onto white cardstock using InkOn3 Blackout Ink. I colored them with Copics, added highlights with a white gel pen, then used the Coordinating Dies to cut them out.

For the background, I die-cut a panel of white cardstock with the second largest die in the A2 Rectangles Clean Cut Layers A Die Set. I blended it with Lumberjack Plaid, Mermaid Lagoon and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks, then black dye ink using Blending Buddy Brushes. I pressed the Starfield Letterpress Plate onto it using silver pigment ink and my BetterPress System, then splattered it with diluted white bleed-proof ink.

The sentiment, also from the Astronomical Gnomes Stamp Set, was stamped onto white cardstock with black pigment ink and cut out with the Coordinating Die.

The background panel was adhered to a white A2 card base with liquid glue.

All of the die-cuts were popped up with foam tape for lots of dimension.

I just love these cute little gnomes with their balloons!!

There is one more adorable gnome in this set that I can’t wait to use!!

Thank you so much for stopping by!! Have a wonderful Thursday!!
