Space Background for GSD Outta This World Blog Hop


Hello crafty friends! Welcome to the Gerda Steiner Designs Outta This World Blog Hop. Today we are showing off two new sets being released with a fun space theme. I have a video sharing how to make a galaxy background which will work great for both sets. Be sure to keep reading to find out more about how to win and where to hop for more inspiration.


On today's card I created a space background with some Distress Inks and layers of paint and water flicks with Perfect Pearls for the stars. I also created some aliens flying around in little space ships with Copic coloring and Glossy Accents. For more details be sure to check out the video.
