Hello everyone. It is already time for the new challenge at Try It On Tuesday Are you ready for black and white with 1 extra color?
Here's my take.
I began by stenciling the background with black paint and also with some black glitter paste. Then I literally got stuck and didn't know where to go. So I dug around in my happy place and found this left over star shape back from my scrapbooking days. Now I had some inspiration.
I outlined the star with a reed marker, stamped the quote along its edges, and also added some dotted lines. I glued it on my page, added some label maker tape, stamped the moon and then drew the telescope and the social distancing lady.
I am also linking up to the geometric challenge over at Art Journal Journey where you also have a few more days to participate. Valerie's challenge goes until the end of the month.
And if you need some inspiration, be sure to check out the other design team member's art at the Try It On Tuesday website.
Thanks for visiting my blog.

Oh, I remember those label makers! It was always a pain ;-)

I wouldn't have guessed that you had been stuck with this page's design. It looks awesome and has super details with the figure looking through his telescope. The red trim is super for the new TioT's theme as well as for AJJ.
Stay safe

What a brilliant page - I love the lady with her telescope! The background and that touch of red are perfect! Hugs, Chrisx
I love the neutral palette here -- and the "stitch" marks around the star are great, along with the quote.
I love your design here, and I love black, white, and red together :)
What an amazing take on the theme, Erika. It's wonderful. Finding that star made YOU a star!! Great job. Love how you included social distancing, too. It's also perfect for Valerie's theme at Art Journal Journey.
*Wow* I like the fascinating design very much and with the shapes as a background!
Take care, hugs Elke
