Ink blended starry night and village silhouette

Hello there, crafty friends! 

It is DT Natalia (@cardsmadebynatalia) with you today. I hope your week is off to a good start! Here in the UK, temperatures have dropped and jumpers are out again, but I keep positive that the sunshine will come back *fingers crossed*!

I have a simple card for you today which I made with lots of ink blending and the gorgeous Street Scene Builder stencil. 

This stencil goes perfectly with the houses in the Hillside Village Stamp set but I thought I would showcase it on its own, and use it with some black shoot distress oxide to create a village silhouette in a summery starry night ★

For the sky, I used a small die cut circle to create my mask for the moon and then I used the following distress oxide inks: 

• Picked raspberry
• Wilted violet
• Chipped sapphire
• Dried marigold

I splattered some white gouache to add the stars to the night sky and then mounted that panel onto an A2 cardbase, leaving a small border around. 

To finish it off, I used the large script hello die of which I glued 4 layers of white cardstock to give it some dimension. 

If you head over to my IG account, there is a reel I posted a couple of weeks back with how I made the same sort of sky but on a tag! It might help you if you decide to give this a go, which I totally recommend!
