To Boldly Go....Birthday Card

Hello and welcome back...

I have to admit that I love Star Trek even from the very beginning, so when I saw this on Pinterest I just had to make it....

This card is A5 in size, with a base card of Basic Grey and then a layer of Smoky Slate. Then a layer of Basic Black which I have added stars to, I used the Confetti Star Border Punch to punch out the stars from some Whisper White and them I stuck them randomly to the card. What I like about this is that the stars are different sizes.

For the Enterprise I used punches, dies and my trusty Trimmer, I prepared all the pieces, most out of Smoky Slate with a little Real Red and some Whisper White card. I sponged around the edges of all the pieces before I assembled it.

For the saucer part I used the Circles Collection Framelits (also retiring, but being replaced by something hopefully better!) I hand wrote the name and number on the front with a Basic Black Marker Pen.

One of my favourite Birthday Phrases, from Remembering Your Birthday Stamp Set ( also retiring), I love this font and the cute sentiment...

I used:
Saucer Section 3 1/4", 1 7/8" and 1 7/16" Circle dies (or 3rd, 4th and 7th circle die 1 being the smallest)                                                                                                                    
2" x 1 1/4" rectangle tapered down to 7/8" and 1 3/4" x 1" rectangle tapered down to 6/8"
The bit that connects the back to the front  4" x 1/2"
The middle back section is the Extra Large Oval punched in Smoky slate with a bit trimmed off and a white oval placed behind it and trimmed.
The two engines are the Large Oval trimmed with a Real Red Oval behind it.
The joining piece is 3" x 1/2"
