I received the Spellbinders 2025 Advent as a gift and one of the dies and stamp sets was all related to UFOs. There is a die set for the UFOs and a stamp set with a few sayings to coordinate. I used In The Pines stamps and dies from Stampin’ Up for the trees on the inside of the card and their Stargazing designer series paper which matched perfect for the front of the card.
To create this card, you just need a few things:
- Light Blue card stock (unknown)
- Misty Moonlight card stock (Stampin’ Up)
- White card stock
- Silver glitter card stock (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Gold glitter card stock (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Stargazing designer series paper (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Out of this World word stamps (Advent 2025 Spellbinders)
- In The Pines stamps and dies (retired Stampin’ Up)
- UFO dies S2-428 W20 (Advent 2025 Spellbinders)
- Tempting Turquise ink (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Soft Suede ink (retired Stampin’ Up)
- Mossy Meadow in (Stampin’ Up)
- Wink of Stella glitter pen (Stampin’ Up)
- Paper trimmer
- Adhesive of choice
- Pop dots
With the light blue card stock cut a card base to 5 ½” x 8 ½” and fold in half and another piece to 3 ¾” x 5” for the inside and a label to ¾” x 2”. From Misty Moonlight card stock cut a piece to 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” and another for the inside to 4” x 5 ¼”. From the Stargazing designer series paper pack find the piece with the blue galaxy with the stary background and cut a piece to 4” x 5 ¼” that has the galaxy running through the middle with stars showing around it.
From a scrap piece of the light blue paper cut two of the round pieces with the window holes and two of the saucer pieces. Cut the bottom portion of the round pieces. From the silver glitter paper cut two of the background pieces. From the gold glitter paper die cut one of the beams pieces and break into three. Use a sponge and sponge the edges of your round pieces and your saucer pieces and then cover each piece in Wink of Stella for a shine. Adhere the silver glitter pieces to the back of the circle and the saucer pieces to the top bottom of your ships. Adhere your three gold glitter pieces beaming out of the bottom of one of your ships to use on the inside of your card.
Take the label piece you cut from light blue and stamp the “you are out of this world” greeting in Tempting Turquoise ink. Use a sponge to sponge the edges with Tempting Turquoise ink and then cover the whole label with Wink of Stella to give it a shine.
Now adhere the 4 1/8” x 5 3/8” Misty Moonlight card stock to the front of your card and the Stargazing paper to the front of that. Then use pop dots to adhere your no-beam space ship to the upper right corner of your card. Adhere your label to the lower left corner with pop dots as well.
For the inside of your card adhere your light blue piece to your Misty Moonlight piece. Use your Tempting Turquoise in and stamp the “rolling by to say hi” greeting in the upper center of your light blue piece. With your In The Pines stamp set stamp two of the small single trees and one of the four grouped small trees in Soft Suede ink and then the fill in pieces with Mossy Meadow ink then die cut each of them. Adhere the two single trees in the lower left corner and your grouped trees in the lower right corner. Then adhere your space ship with the beams going slightly under your trees. Then adhere your piece to the inside back of your card.
This card turned out so cute, took me a bit of time to get it finished but turned out better than I expected.
