Ombre Tie Fighter Birthday

Good morning!  Today I'm sharing a quick and easy birthday card that would be perfect for a sci-fi geek.  I see you squinting your eyes, wondering what's sci-fi about this card.  Look at that background.  I actually used a stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called Graphic Lace, but when I look at the pattern, I see the Tie Fighters from Star Wars!  LOL

I started by placing the Graphic Lace stencil over a white card base, and then I blended three blue inks (lightest color at the top, darkest color at the bottom) for the ombre look.  I die cut the "handsome" sentiment and shadow and glued them onto the card.  Then I stamped the "Happy Birthday" with the dark blue ink and affixed them to the card with foam tape right above the "handsome" die cut.
