Today is the start of a new challenge over at
Use a Stencil or Two...
We'd love to see your art created with one, two or even more stencils - as many as you like 😉
As usual, you may use any medium in your art and digital is always welcome.
Don't miss the inspiration provided by the talented team over on the blog - there's always some stunning artwork there.
You have two weeks to create your art.
Look forward to visiting your blog over the next fortnight!
My inspiration piece began as a mop up piece of card, on which I used the remaining ink from the stencils I'd been using. It was quite pretty as it was, with some great colours, but I decided to add a bit more ink through two different stencils, ending with some Moonlight White Brilliance ink through the last one I used. The quirky Paperartsy characters were stamped onto the card, for placement, then stamped onto white card, coloured (Prisma Pencils) and cut out to 'paper piece' over the original images, edged with black ink to make them pop a little more.
I loved the range of colours, so decided to use a Visible Image stamp for the words, masking the words I didn't want to stamp with sticky tape. Unfortunately, they didn't stand out very clearly, so I opted for stamping them on white card, clear embossing and edging with black ink before attaching to the card. All in all, there are probably four or five stencils used on this, but some of the patterns were inked over, or covered with images.
I'd also like to link this to Moo Mania and More's Colour Challenge and Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, ATG.
Thank you so much for calling in
I'll be back soon
