Listen - An Art Journal Page with Cindy Gilstrap


Happy Tuesday everyone! I hope this finds you having a wonderful week. For this Team Tuesday project I wanted to play with layering a few different stencils.


For this page I used the following stencils: Ripples designed by Suzi Dennis, Tossed Blossoms Stencil designed by Terri Stegmiller, and Hawk of the Mountain designed by Roxanne Evans Stout.


I started by layering scraping blue and white paint over my page.




I used the Ripples stencil to stencil a flower look along the bottom of the page.




Then I used the Hawk of the Mountain stencil to stencil a bird perched on top of the flower like stencil.



To add to the flower look I used the Tossed Blossoms stencil.



To add texture and interest I added drips of acrylic ink from the top of the page. I spritzed with water to make them run. I love the drippy look!




I added details with white gel pen, black pencil. I then added the word Listen with acrylic ink.


I love combining different stencils and I love how this simple page turned out. So get out your stencil and combine at least 3 different ones to see what you can create. Your art journal is a great place to play with different combinations.

Happy Creating!
