August StencilClub Preview

Hello Stencil Lovers!

Janet here, from Happy Reminders. 

I am apologizing in advance.

 I LOVE THESE STENCILCLUB STENCILS

designed by Mary Beth Shaw exclusively for

StencilClub Members in August!

I am showing you 3 ways I have used them...

that's why I am apologizing!

So Hang in there!

First off, this quickie background....

The middle sized stencil is this really cool swirly doodle...

I used it both positive and negative with sprays and markers...

It gives a really cool pattern with lots of movement! I love that!

The smallest stencil has this hashmarky netting look...

I had so much fun with the PanPastels last week that I did it again.

I used a VersaMark Stamp Pad and blended the

Pthalo Green Shade and Hansa Yellow.

Very Fun!  

Next is my Daily #15 cover.

I had used the Medium Damask stencil when I did the Craft Hoarders Challenge  last month.

I wasn't sure how much would end up showing when I was done but I plowed ahead anyways...

I love the swirly doodle...it reminds me of a galaxy...

So that is where I started...

I began layering the swirly in a random fashion

Everything changed when I used the Golden Brand Veridian Green Hue paint.

It became my Green Galaxy...

But I liked it...So there it stayed.

I added depth and contrast with metallic dots and splatters!

I Love It!

I also stamped some texture in there around the edges...

a big polka dot stamp and a graph paper stamp...

And Lastly...How would I use these stencils in my Daily????

Just like this.....

The biggest stencil in the collection is kind of gridded and map-like.

I rubbed brown StazOn Ink through it

 and doodled and colored different sections.

I like it!!!

Have fun with your StencilClub stencils!

 I can't wait to see what y'all come up with!

Happy Stencilling!
