Hi friends, a new week has begun, the days run fast and I'm on my second post for this great group. I hadn't used this beautiful stamp yet, really very big, useful for making pictures for children printed pillows and paintings, cards etc etc ...
He is Flooooobert and the stamp is called " Keeper o the Starz ".
I started by painting Flooooobert on watercolor paper, with watercolor paints.
The next step was to cut it out with great care. What tenderness this little mouse was, it seemed to be looking at me ... From a box I cut a strip that contained it, and at the top I created a sort of "roof". I then covered the cardboard with a sheet of corrugated kraft cardboard, which is sold in hobby and art stores.
What have I done? Simple ... I used a wavy die and a very tall grass die. I`ll need them to finish "Flooooobert`s house". I used 2 sheets of Bazzill paper of two different greens, one lighter and the other ll grass die
I then painted and cut out a sunflower, borrowed from another gorgeous Tracy stamp and placed it among the blades of grass. I took a stick of ice cream ones, (you can buy them anywhere) and I glued the banner with the inscription. I added wooden hearts in the upper part, I cut out one of the symbols of the soul, in the lower part I tied some green raffia threads. I created the green and orange "dots" with Apple Green and English Mustard "Nuvo - Crystal Drops". I left them to dry well until they became hard to the touch half pearls.
And now it's up to HIM: Flooooobert !!!
Take a good look at him ... he still has straw behind his back ... How is that possible? Surely he entered at night without being seen in some farm ... there were cows, sheep, but the farmers were asleep. It was late at night and he stole a few pieces of good cheese, forgetting that he had straw behind his back. ;-)
I glued the straw with some liquid glue and Flooooobert with the thick adhesive.
The rest is all in your imagination, you can add elements or remove, according to your taste. Given its size (about 30 cm) it can be nice in a children's room. This is a project that should be seen in real life, I hope the photos show the exact size and I hope it was to your liking.
