It's time to use my stencils, Peeps!

Hey, Peeps. this is a quickie post tonight. I realized that while I design and sell lots of stencils, I'm so busy doing that that I often don't get a chance to play with my own toys! So, I decided to use my Mish Mash stencil from my Etsy shop here.

This is actually one of my favorite larger stencils since it has tons of texture. It's almost like several stencils in one because it has so much going on.

So, here are a few things I did with it. I played with some mixed media paper and paint, using the Creative Jumpstart class prompts.

For starters, I took my stencil and just dabbed a few colors of paint through the designs.

After that, I placed the stencil on a brand new piece of mixed media paper and rubbed over and through it with a baby wipe. This accomplished two things. It cleaned my stencil and made another very cool page.

Here's the "rub-through". 

After that, I just added some transparent, high flow yellow paint to the first print. It's all about layers, Peeps, and this one will probably get several more before the week is over. And, sorry for the lighting. It is a dark and stormy night here in PA.

I'll be posting more on these pages in the near future. 

And, thanks again for checking out my blog. I do feel another stencil giveaway coming up.

Fondly, Tami

More Stencil Designs

Hey, Peeps. I've been getting a lot of great feedback about my stencils. Some customers have said that they didn't expect them to be so nice. Of course, I have a wonderful machine (Black Cat Cougar) that cuts clean, crisp edges. It's amazing, and I'm so grateful that HubbyDoc encouraged me to buy it.
I've been having so much fun designing. Here are some of my latest designs.

Three Wonky Trees

This stencil has a lot of versatile uses, and I include the tree cutouts as well, that are great for using as a mask.

Flower Medallion

This is a whimsical design that can be used in part, or in its entirety. Just use the flower parts, or the circles, or the center section for a card. 

Wired Trees

This is one of my favorites, since the tree section can be used as a tree, or a Santa hat, or you can turn it upside down and use it for a cornucopia for autumn or Thanksgiving. 

Arrows

These are my new favorite masks. I like them almost as much as my keys.

So, feel free to check out my Etsy shop, and when you buy my stencils, you won't be disappointed. And as always, I ask my customers to send me pictures of their creations so that I can blog...and tweet...and Pin....

A Few More Original Stencil Designs

This is just a quick post to show you creative peeps some of my new stencil listings in my Etsy shop. These are tag designs- perfectly sized for your smaller projects, including tags and cards, but they're also great for use with the small Gelli Plate. I hope to have a post in the near future with some layered looks. Stay tuned, Peeps! And again, thanks so much for your support. My stencils have been flying off the shelves!
