Using stencils in daily art challenges

2017 seems to be my year for participating in daily art challenges. Some of the challenges last a month, but I am also working on a daily year long challenge that has a prompt attached to each day. I’ve discovered that The Crafter’s Workshop stencils have been a fabulous source of inspiration for many of the prompts and wanted to share some of those art journal pages with you today!

The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project. This post also contains affiliate links. The opinions I share are solely my own.

They are fabulous to stencil with! Add in the different types of modeling paste and Shimmery Goodness, and I had a ton of inspiration, colors and textures to draw from for each challenge prompt!

As you can see, I was able to draw so much inspiration from the stencil patterns! I hope this gives you some ideas on how to incorporate stencils into your daily art practice! You can find me adding pictures of my daily art over on Instagram
