Stampotique- Stars

Star Gazing Bunny
Bunny Boy has landed!

The moon was created applying modelling paste with a palette knife, keeping it quite textured
Then dried with a heat tool to form a skin, then pressed the end of a lid and paint brush for the craters
It cracked as it dried further, which really added to the effect

I glued the tiny wooden stars and once dry, applied DecoArt Carbon Black and Prussian Blue
Then dry brushed the moon and stars with Titanium white gradually building up lighter, finished with  Metallic Shimmering Silver on the stars

I stamped Kate Cranes wonderful Bunny Boy and Jos Star, and coloured with Promarkers

  4. Jools, you've hit the ball out of the park again! The texture on the moon is insane and by keeping the palette so simple it really accentuates not only the moon, but Bunny Boy and your stars. Wow!
