I figured we would just be settling down from the high of the wedding weekend so in honor of the Navy and Champagne theme of the wedding I did a color challenge with Navy!
Today’s More Color Monday challenge features Night of Navy, Misty Moonlight and Smoky Slate!

It’s a simple card with lots of ink blending! I started with a simple strip scrap to mask the middle of the card and ink blended with the Misty Moonlight ink, blending towards the outside edges of the card.
I moved the strip to form a triangular opening for the shaft of starlight I wanted to create, and blended the Misty Moonlight towards the edge of the card stock on the opposite side of the card layer.
Moving outside the Misty Moonlight layer I blended the Night of Navy from the middle of the Misty Moonlight to the edge of the layer on both sides. This simulates the night growing darker.
Next I stamped in Smoky Slate in the upper right hand corner the starlight spray. Then I applied Versamark ink and stamped the larger grouping of stars in the middle of that starlight spray stamp. I added versamark and smaller stars around the sentiment also stamped in Versamark. I then sprinkled silver powder over the Versamark and heat embossed with the Heat Tool.
I added Smoky Slate with a Blending Brush to the center shaft of starlight.
I added a little more blending of Night of Navy above the star so that the Smoky slate shaft of starlight began at the larger star.
I added Silver and White Sheer ribbon to the bottom of the Basic White layer and adhered it to the Smoky Slate card base. I added Iridescent Pastel Gems in Blue around the sentiment. Love the sparkle this has!
Try your hand at a card with blue and silver and see what artwork of your very own you come up with – one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
