I wish I was Spaceman......


....the fastest guy alive....Does anyone remember Gerry Anderson's Fireball XL5? I'm showing my age now!I once had a doll with long blonde hair and called her Venus after the trusty sidekick in said programme..sorry..I digress! I thought of that kiddies programme from the '60's (yikes!) as I was making this card. Another kiddies card with a space theme this time. Every little boy wants to be an Astronaut right?..and they have to start somewhere..Space Academy!
I used a Z-card base and DCWV Boys stack papers. I had just about enough space-themed paper for this card! The spaceman was cut from grey 'glittercard' (look how it appears as though the stars are reflected in his helmet visor!Love that!)that was really cheap from The Range, white Bazzil and scraps of mirri/holographic card. He was then attached to the card with a Papermania spring.

The sentiments were cut from silver holographic card and shadowed with grey glitter card- 'Space cadet' was adhered with foam pads, 'Happy Birthday' was adhered flat. A few punched stars scattered about complete the card.
