I love a good pun and as much as I wanted to use it on my card, it will have to wait until next time. I needed a different kind of encouraging card, so I used a cactus sentiment that I already had in my stash. Because my sentiment talks about stars, I went for a starry night sky. The last time I used my blue glittery acrylic paint, I cleaned off my brayer on a piece of cardstock. So I started with that as a base. I sponged Distress Oxides all over it and then did some Wrinkle Free Distress Technique to add some more color and more texture. I splattered some white paint, but wasn’t happy with those stars, so I added some more stars using white Enamel Accents. But it still needed some more sparkle, so I added more stars with Stickles. Here’s a close up shot of the sparkle:
