Reach high for the stars!

I've been wanting to post for the Paperartsy "circles" challenge... all sorts of lovely ideas what could be done, but my time is scarce and I ended up with relatively simple CAS.

I just got my first Gelatos, and had a play with them on some scrap cardstock: blue, green and yellow mixed for an ombre effect. I cut out as many circles as I could with a stitched die set and added some stars from EDY08. My original plan was to do a "flow" of circles, like Gabrielle Price on this post... but I ended up placing them randomly over the whole cardblank. The sentiment from the same stamp set fit perfectly, and I finished of with some stamping on the envelope. I love the way the sliding colour gives a 3D look, the circles almost look like planets!
