Celestial Zodiacs Card Set

Hi crafty friends! Lea Lawson here today to share a card set featuring the new products from the Celestial Zodiacs collection. There is such a fun collection, with fantastic stamps, stencils, Glimmer hot foil plates and even an embossing folder. Let’s take a look at how I created these cards!

Celestial Zodiacs Card Set

For my first card I embossed a panel of navy blue cardstock with the Stargazer embossing folder. Next I foiled the constellations from the Taurus, Virgo, Scorpio and Capricorn foiling sets in Aura colored foil. I stamped & heat embossed the sentiment from Starstruck Sentiments in white, then splattered the entire panel with white acrylic ink. Once the ink was dry, I cut the panel with the largest Nestabilities Essentials Rectangle, then mounted it to the front of a white A2 card base with foam adhesive. To finish, I accented with iridescent jewels.

For my second card I ink blended the Layered Moon in shades of grey ink, then cut the moon out with a Nestabilities Essentials Circle. I foiled the sentiment to it using the Celestial Sentiments glimmer hot foil set in Aura colored foil. Next I foiled the Celestial Star Background to a panel of navy cardstock. I cut the panel with the largest Nestabilities Essentials Rectangle, then mounted it to the front of a white A2 card base with foam adhesive. I mounted the moon to the left side of the card with foam tape, then trimmed the excess off with sharp scissors. To finish, I accented with iridescent jewels.

For my final card, I ink blended the Layered Moon in shades of blue and the final layer in white embossing paste. I foiled the Celestial Star Background to a panel of white cardstock. I foiled the sentiments to white and navy cardstock using the Taurus & More Sentiments glimmer hot foil sets. I trimmed them down to size, and adhered the  moon navy foiled strip to the bottom of the foiled star background. I mounted the background to a light blue A2 card base, then trimmed the excess of the moon off with sharp scissors. I added the white Taurus sentiment strip to the bottom of the moon with foam tape, then finished by accenting with iridescent jewels.

Celestial Zodiacs Card Set

I really love this beautiful Celestial Zodiacs collection! I think it’s a really fun idea to make custom cards for friends and loved ones based on their zodiac sign and coordinating constellation. I had so much fun creating these cards and I hope they inspire you as you create with these gorgeous new products. Have a wonderful day! &
