Steps

Color the Crescent Moon

Start with the large crescent moon in the center. Use light shades like yellow or silver for a glowing effect.

Blend colors slightly for a softer moon appearance.

Use white or yellow for the stars scattered across the page. Make them vary in size for a natural look.

Don't be afraid to add extra stars or sparkles!

Create a Background

Consider coloring the background in deep blues or purples to represent the night sky.

Layer colors to create depth and texture.
