Time Out #135 - Inspired by Words Challenge

Hi friends!  The new challenge over at Time Out is the Inspired by Words challenge.  This is the quote this week:
"Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground."
-Theodore Roosevelt
 
Stars!  That's my take on the quote.  I needed a college graduation card, so the stars made it an easy card to make.  I started by searching my stash for stars, and pulled out this Shifter stencil from Tim Holtz.  I sponged Twisted Citron and Salty Ocean inks on the cardstock, then die cut it with a wonky stitched die.  The sentiment was die cut three times and stacked with some shimmer on top.  I stamped the other sentiment was stamped in Versamark and embossed in white on the black cardstock.  Perfect grad card!  And I made this in my new craft room!  It's not finished completely yet, but I was able to bring up the essentials to create this card.  Can't wait to get it completely finished!
