ETA: Haha, now I know why I did that - Jen did for her sample card too ;)
I also had Stamp Simply #80 (ssnotime80) in mind, which is to mix dots (or stripes) with other patterns. All the paper (except the Kraft) has a pattern on it, so I think I managed to do that! I'm counting the blue/yellow one as the dots, although it's got a grid pattern as well.To make the sentiment window, I used my Word Window punch several times. The Key Tag punch as just a tad too big, so I created my own version!
To fit the space theme, I added lots of glitter with my Sakura glitter pen, and orange rhinestones on the "hubcaps" and around the sentiment. I popped up most of the layers as well, to give lots of dimension.
Stamps: It's a Mod, Mod World (The Cat's Pajamas)
Paper: Kraft cardstock (SU), pp (Creative Memories)
Ink: Close to Cocoa, Going Grey (SU)
Accessories: Word Window punch (SU), Stardust glitter pen (Sakura), rhinestones (Kaiser), circle Nestabilities (Spellbinders), CB (Provocraft)
Hmm...something was bugging me about this card, and I just realized what it is. The scalloped circle just doesn't fit with the "mod retro" theme, which is what I was going for, with that fun cube paper. Drat! Oh well, I'll remember that for next time.
Uh, so I couldn't leave it. Here's the card without the scallops. Much better!
