Die Cut Baby Card

My card today is for the sketch challenge this week at CAS Colours & Sketches.  When I saw the sketch I immediately thought of this die.

 

I cut the bear and moon from white cardstock and colored the bear with Distress Oxide inks.  I cut down the moon and used it as a stencil/mask to create the blue sky.  I knew where I wanted the moon, so I found that was the easiest way to know where I should place the sky.  Then I cut the moon from a pearlized paper to give it some shimmer.  Because the "stencil/mask" was smaller than the moon I just glued it over the uninked spot.

For some visual interest I used a scalloped rectangle for the top layer and embossed the bottom layer.
