Shimmer & Shine: A Starry Mixed Media Birthday Card

 

Hello, crafty friends!
Ericka here from Strangely Creative, and today I’m excited to share a quick and sparkly project featuring the fabulous Super Star stencil from Visible Image and a touch of golden glam with Spectrum Noir Glitter Paste in Candlelight Gold

I started with a moody background made from some gel press playtime—a mix of darker hues with hints of yellow that instantly reminded me of a dramatic starry night sky. The unexpected contrast set the perfect stage for a celestial-themed card.

 

To build on that theme, I layered the Super Star stencil over the background and carefully applied the Candlelight Gold glitter paste. Once dry, the stars truly shimmered, adding rich texture and a magical glow.


 

For the sentiment, I used the Happy Birthday strip from Darkroom Door, which I stamped and then attached with a bold pink staple for a fun pop of color and whimsy.


✨ And just like that—this card came together quickly but packs a punch of sparkle and personality!


 

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope this quick project inspires you to get a little messy and magical in your own creative space.
Wishing you a weekend full of crafty joy and golden moments!
