Hello all
I am back with a space themed card using Hellgnome's death digis. Did you know that we have a collection of dead bodies floating around in space? yep Dogs, cats., monkeys and maybe a couple of Russian cosmonauts. During the space race of the 60s, scientists sent up a dog named Laika so they could study the effects of space on living things. Poor thing died because they didn't realise that there was no oxygen in space. It seems daft now but back then all this was new. Now there is a conspiracy theory that Russia lost a few astronauts during early test flights and they covered it up to save face.
use watercolour paints and randomly apply colours to the center of a blank card. Keep them matching so you don't get a muddy mess. Once dry, take black acrylic paint and paint the rest of the card, blend a little black into the colours. Take white acrylic paint and mix with a little water. make sure you have covered everything in paper including yourself as this bit gets messy!!. Flick the white paint over the card and keep going until you have added thousands of tiny stars to the card.
use markers on the spaceman, choose three matching colours and colour the image with the lightest colour first. Then decide which direction the light is shining. Use the second lightest colour on the part where the light meets the shadows. finally use the darkest colours on the bits where the shadows will fall. With practice you will soon get the hang of colouring.
paint a piece of card black and stamp a sentiment on using gold ink. Flick white paint over it and then use a white ball pen to add and outline to the sentiment. it is better to stamp the sentiment onto separate card in case it smudges
