Good morning! I’m so excited to be helping Colorado Craft Company celebrate a year of offering exclusive Anita Jeram designs to the stamping community! Today I have two very different cards using some of the new release stamps!
First I stamped the adorable mouse and sentiment from A Star is Born with versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I also stamped a mask, fussy cut it, and placed it over the mouse. Then I blended spun sugar, kitsch flamingo, shaded lilac, blueprint sketch, and prize ribbon distress oxide ink over the background. I also added a little hickory smoke at the bottom to ground my scene. I splattered the panel with water, shimmer spray, and white gouache and let it dry completely.
Once it was dry I removed the mask and colored the mouse with copic markers. I used R00 and R02 for the ears and feet; T1, T3, T5 for the mouse; and Y00, Y11, and Y13 for the star. I added a thin layer of nuvo crystal glaze to the star and then sprinkled it with prisma and chunky glitter to finish the card.
For my second card I sprayed a panel of distress cardstock with distress oxide sprays in cracked pistachio, peacock feathers, mermaid lagoon, and black soot. I let the panel blend together and then once it was dried I added additional splatters of black soot, white gouache, and shimmer spray. Once that was dry I added splatters of gold and pearl metallic paint for additional stars.
Next I stamped the mouse from Twinkle Little Star and the stars from Falling Star with versafine and heat-embossed them with clear embossing powder. I colored them with copic markers and then die-cut them with the coordinating dies. I used R00, R02, E40, E70, E71, and E74 for the mouse and the same yellow copics for the stars. I stamped a sentiment from Falling Star with versamark and heat-embossed it with gold embossing powder before adhering the mouse and stars. Finally I added a little more nuvo crystal glaze and glitter to the stars to finish the card!

The touches of glitter really make these cards shine!!! I always enjoy seeing what you create.
All of the sets are so sweet. Your cards are lovely. I like how you used spatters for stars – it is still bling-y, but without pesky glitter to gluing on sequins one by one. It’s a great card.
I am so hooked on all of Anita’s stamps! I love them all! Your cards are beautiful, but I love the sparkly 2nd one the best!
Fabulous cards!!! Love that dotty background!
Both of these cards are fantastic! Those mice are just adorable, and the sentiments are equally wonderful!
Such sweet cards! Love this release!😍
Love the little mouse hugging the star, and I think Reach for the Stars would be perfect for someone just graduating and starting a new job and chapter in their life.
A darling milestone! The little Dream Big mini stamp will be perfect for a Thinking of you card. Such a precious journey we all,shared through AJ this past year. Your cards are Beautiful. And best of luck in your newest design endeavor.
