I am at CHA debuting all my stencils along with having fun doing make & takes at the Crafter’s Workshop booth. I will continue to share my summer stencil release here on the blog so you can see all 19 in detail. So far you have seen:
Fancy Feathers & Giraffe Print
Climbing Vine & Moroccan Tiles
Mix Tape, And So On, & Squiggles
Today i am sharing three more with you, Sweet Home (TCW #386), Raindrops (TCW #400), and Switchback (TCW #399). Sweet Home is reminescent of Urban Landscape but pays homage to our dwellings, for home is where love dwells. You can use the shadow or line drawing by themselves or combine them for a stellar look.
These stencils come in both 12×12 and 6×6. You can see the shadow and detail images were used.
Can i tell you how much i enjoyed making this layout? I love those bright cheerful houses all stacked up to tell the story of how my home is with Andrew, wherever he may be.
Raindrops has a variety of sizes scattered across the page giving a great random feel. I love all the sizes, both fat, skinny, and small. The 12×12 looks great combined with 6×6 size.
You can see the two sizes next to each other. The 12×12 is actually on the left and the 12×12 is on the right.
On this layout, i first embossed the raindrops using clear UTEE and then painted the layout using spray inks and watercolors. I love the way the drops pop up against the color.
Switchback is a great background stencil that reminds me of our mountain roads in Colorado. I love the way this background can be broken down in columns, rows, and squares.
I really love this background stamp. Alexi had fun with these two using spray inks on the 12×12 and distress inks on the 6×6 stencil.
The stencils are debuitng at the show today but i thought you might like a sneak of upcoming stencils & samples. I have been a very busy girl completing 19 layouts for The Crafter’s Workshop booth. Stay tuned these will all appear here on the blog!
I just love the “Venice” and “Raindrops” layouts!! Gorgeous!
I’m just discovering stencils. I love what you’ve done with yours’, especially watercoloring over the clear embossed raindrops!
