Five, Four, Three, Two, One - we have lift off! 3 small cards with a space theme. Hi Craft Addicts! I had just been playing with the Starlights metallic paints from Imagination Crafts (you can find the full range here )  and felt that the colours I had used - White Gold, Antique Gold and a touch of Green looked like a sand scene and then had the idea that it also looked like a planet's surface - (you can find many Tutorials as to how to used these paints on You Tube).

So, here is another that could be used for Father's Day or even a male birthday .  Special Dad - Happy Birthday This is a 13.5cm Kraft square card from DoCrafts Papermania collection which I thought would go well with the some of the " Suits You Sir!

I then glued it using some Collall All Purpose Glue to the front of the card leaving a slight gap on the left hand side. Whilst that was drying, I then punched out 2 squares each of the...
