Hi Stampers!
Today we will create an out of this world pop out fun fold card, and take a look at the STARGAZING SUITE from Stampin’ Up!®️ The suite features the REACH FOR THE STARS BUNDLE (stamp set and coordinating dies), STARGAZING DSP, and the HOLOGRAPHIC SPECIALTY PAPER. I used these items to create two, space themed, pop out fun fold, birthday cards. Let’s take a look.

BLASTS FROM THE PAST
I showed my husband the Reach for the Stars stamp set, and mentioned I thought it strange the set included an image that looks just like a space shuttle. He said he thinks it is an 80’s retro set as it includes a space shuttle and the MTV astronaut! 😁 His statement got me thinking about past Stampin’ Up! space themed sets. I have at least 3. I think some of the greetings included in the sets might pair great with the Reach for the Stars set! See the sets below.
