Hello again TCW friends
Great to be here with you this morning sharing another fun TCW blog tutorial and video!
In today’s page, I am using the TCW905 – Leaf Emblem; TCW246 – Swiss Dot (of course!) & some black gesso – TCW9002
Green was my theme…can you tell?
– The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project. The opinions I share are solely my own –
As always, if you enjoy seeing a page come together quickly, you can just go ahead and watch the process video below. Captions within the video will tell you what products I have used along the way.
…here is the page, step-by-step…
1 – paint the entire page one single colour. you can mix two shades of the same color for some interest
2 – Using TCW905 – Leaf Emblem stencil and TCW9002 – Black Gesso stencil through the stencil. Then blackout the other side of the page with the same gesso or a matte black paint.
3 – Next use TCW246 – Swiss Dots and the same color as your page, stencil though to create dots (flower centers). Leave a small section in the middle blank ready for some lettering.
4 – white paint pens, gel pens & fluoro paint pens create all the petals of the flowers and smaller flowers all over the page (see video for details)
5 – Hand letter a quote into the blank space in the center of the page. I chose an Henri Matisse quote.
– “There are always flowers for those who wish to see them ” –

6 – The final step is important to give depth to the page. Use a dark tone of the same theme color to shade around the stencil and shadow the corners.
7 – More doodles and flowers can always be added 🙂

I do hope you have enjoyed this walkthrough of my page and the video. Hopefully, it gives you some inspiration to create your own single color themed page.
Have a great day!

Beautiful! Absolutely brilliant!
Love this piece! Green and black are an under utilized combo but boy are they terrific together!
Thank you!
So pretty. I’m going to try this. Thanks, Dani!
