While you could use these Framelits with just about any stamp, I’ve chosen to feature the coordinating Shooting Star Stamp Set (item 141619) and create a little galaxy-inspired theme to share with you today.

I started with a panel of Watercolor Paper (item 122959) and applied a wash of Tempting Turquoise (item 126952) and Elegant Eggplant (item 126969) inks using an Aqua Painter (item 103954). Once the paper was completely dry, I stamped a few of the small stars in Whisper White Craft ink (item 101731) and then cut the arch track.

I embellished the card using the Confetti Celebration Stamp Set (item 142034) star, which was stamped on Shimmery White Cardstock (item 101910) in Tempting Turquoise ink and then fussy cut. I also added the “It’s your day!” from this same set stamped in Elegant Eggplant ink.

The shooting star and moon were stamped on Shimmery White Cardstock in VersaMark ink (item 102283) and embossed using Silver Stampin’ Emboss Powder (item 109131) and the Heat Tool (item 129053).

I added a little more watercoloring to the tail of the star, plus some Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details (item 127845). Then I followed this great tutorial by Stampin’ Up! to put everything together

This card was so much fun to make that I decided to try one with a full circle track, too.

This time I cut the tail off the star to help it spin more smoothly and not get caught on my layered embellishments and Silver Metallic Thread (item 138402) loops in the center.

I hope you’ve enjoyed these fun designs and that they inspire you to give your own spinner cards a try!
