Again Wendy's choice - and one which I got stuck at yesterday. Why do I leave everything until the last minute? I do know that somewhere I have a rubber stamp of a crescent moon with someone sitting on it - sort of 1920's style or somewhere around there - but try as I might I could not locate it. It is probably in my bag of "I am giving these stamps away" and I don't know where that is.
Well, a further search and I found a Stampscapes scene which had a moon on it. So it was "muck or nettles" as they say in the north and I stamped the image on a piece of card. Now which prepainted page should I use? Chose the blue one and how I wished I hadn't when I came to try to cover some of it in white paint. Took lots of coats but eventually it was reasonable and I left it and began stamping some of Tracy Scott's circle stamps all over the white section with a Berry Blue ink pad. Didn't like the starkness that I obtained so I used my new Zig Cldean Color Real Brush Pens that Mary had sent me over from America. Boy oh Boy, do I like them!!!
On You Tube someone had said they worked best on watercolour paper, well, if that is the case I cannot wait to use them on it as I loved the coverage I got on the acrylic paint. I chose to use the two palest blues - 31 Cobalt Blue and 36 Light Blue in the main with touches of 37 Cornflower Blue and 32 Persian Blue as highlights, or should that be low lights?
Anyway, here is my page. Not really me but the best I could do and it did give me a chance to use Tracy's fabulous PaperArtsy stamps and those gorgeous pens. Here it is but I notice that the scan has missed the border off the top - ah well, not to worry.
The circles are to represent planets just in case you were all wondering. I was going to include some die cut stars but decided to leave it as it was - maybe I will see what they look like another day. Off now to see what Wendy has done.
