I've had congratulations on the brain lately because our school kids in Texas just finished their standardized testing last week, and they did great! So the Book Print impression plate plus a star die seemed like they would fit the bill for a congrats card. The tiny stamp in each corner of the star was done by inking just a little bit of one of the stamps in the Guide Lines 2 set. This is a really fun technique and I know that I'll be using it again. Right now, I'm off to shop for more impression plates!
Details: stamps - Signature Greetings, Guide Lines 2; paper - Basic Black, Blueberry Sky; ink - Memento Tuxedo Black (Tsukineko); accessories - Book Print impression plate, Seeing Stars dies, black rhinestones (source unknown), embossing pad kit

This is so cool - great job with the challenge. I love the bling & little flourishy thing in the star points.
Oh I love it! I'm a sucker for star images and this is just the best idea!
I love this!
That star die is perfect for the IP!
Love the colors too!
Your card turned out great,I'm having a hard time deciding what I'm going to do with this one. Love your take on the challenge .
Oh wow, that's awesome! Great job!
LOVE this! I really need to purchase some PTI embossing plates. Love the one you used, that sentiment & the star make a great combo :)
Very cool looking, Chris! It totally rocks, LOL! :-D
This turned out so well. Did you get the double lines around the star just by using the die or did you outline it specially, like Erin did on her line? Very nice.
Beverly, the double line around the star just happened when I embossed it - all one step! I've been experimenting with other dies, and it seems to happen with some, but not others. It's a neat effect.
This is great and thanks for your tip on my card.
Thanks, Chris. That IS a very cool effect. I'll have to see what dies I've got that work like that. Thanks for answering.
I love the mix of this impression plate with that die! Perfect!
SUPER Star, Chris, love your impression plate/die card and sentiment. Girly, you rock!
