space and planets – using distress inks and masking to create a space scene

Hello all,
This time i wanted to create a space themed card. And i wanted to make it my own, so kind of hand drawn.

In order to create the nice space, i masked the planets and the stars. Just punch some different sizes of circles, and some stars from masking paper, and then adhering them on my card.

With the blending tool i applied 3 sky colors, with the darkest at the corners. After i blended everything i flicked some water on top for some added interested.

All that was left now is to peel the mask off, and color in the planets randomly. I went in with a black marker to add the details all around.

I hope you enjoy the nice effect, and give this a try.
