Cosmonautics Day is a very interesting holiday, on this day all eyes are directed upward at the stars. Therefore, not a single application for Cosmonautics Day is complete without stars and rockets.
Starry sky
The starry sky in the background is the main general feature of space applications. To make such a background can be very simple using a sheet of cardboard in black, white paint and a brush . A sheet of black cardboard will be used as a backing. It will need to put stars on it.
A brush to make many small stars in the application for Cosmonautics Day will not help us. Paint should be applied with spray. The necessary small spray can be easily done with a small brush with hard bristles, a toothbrush is well suited for these purposes .
Brush should be smeared liberally in white paint and run along its bristle with a finger so that splashes result. To begin with, it is better to practice splashing on draft paper, in order to avoid misunderstandings and unnecessary blots. If everything works out, then it is already possible to apply paint to the backing of black cardboard.
The starry sky for the application for Cosmonautics Day is ready!
Rocket
Now is the time to think about what the main image on the applique will be. The rocket is usually the focus of attention. A rocket either plows the expanses of space, flying past planets, or landed on one of them. Perhaps even an astronaut peeps out of it and waves its hand at the local planets!
There are several ways to depict all this on applications for Cosmonautics Day for children , here are two of them:
- It will be enough to cut out a rocket and planets from colored paper and stick everything in its place on a previously prepared star substrate.
- If you want more interesting, the rocket and planets can be made a little convex. To do this, cut out the parts with a margin. It is better to glue them not on the entire surface, but only on the edges, so that in the middle there is elevation and emptiness inside. Moreover, it is desirable to bend the edges and stick on this substrate with this small bent area.
It is better to glue the rocket with a cone - so that the nose of the rocket is pointed, and then with a thickening towards the nozzle. From the nozzle side of the rocket, flame tongues cut from paper can be glued along the contour.
To make the rocket in the application for Cosmonautics Day more like a real one, it can be coated with colorless nail polish. Only you need to do this with a fully-made rocket, since nothing can be painted on top of the varnish.
Shine
Sequins very harmoniously fit into the star theme and give brightness to the craft. They can be used to outline the finished application, highlight some elements of the rocket, or make a beautiful inscription “Happy Cosmonautics Day!”.
You can use as a ready-made gel with sparkles from a set for creativity, as well as dry small sparkles. In order for the latter to adhere well, they will have to be applied with a colorless nail polish: first, a layer of varnish on a small area, and then sprinkle glitter on it, and shake off excess.
Conclusion
In the application for the Cosmonautics Day, you can use not only paper, but also many other materials, receiving amazing masterpieces. It is only necessary to give vent to imagination!
