Hello! I’m part of the Fantasy Inspired Instagram Hop today, but of course I had to blog about it as well. This month’s theme is Gods & Goddesses, and I immediately knew what stamp I had to use. I grabbed Cassia From the Bottom of my Harp from Stamp Anniething and got to work.

I wanted Cassia to be a specific goddess, so I went with Asteria, who is the Goddess of the stars. I actually dressed up as Asteria for Halloween a few years ago. I colored her in shades of blue with my Copic Markers. I cut her out and started to work on the background.
I used some navy blue cardstock and the star stencil from the Blowing Wishes stencil set from A Colorful Life Designs. I inked it up with Silvery Shimmer Delicata Ink. I wanted more, so I splattered on Sheer Shimmer Spritz in Frost and Gold, also from Imagine. I also outlined some of the stars with a shiny Gelly Roll pen. To give the whole panel a shimmery haze, I inked the edges with more Silvery Shimmer ink.
I inked the edges of my card base with VersaMark Ink and then sprinkled on Shimmering Night Sky Mboss from Imagine. After I heat set it, I inked up the word “star” from the old Gina K Designs set called All Stars and used the same embossing powder on it. The “you’re a” is from an old Honey Bee Stamps set, and was inked up with Twilight VersaFine Clair Ink. Both were stamped on gray cardstock.
