Hi! Mary Nasser here sharing what I created for week twelve of
March’s Theme
Making Your Mark (Doodles & Mark Making)
March 21 Challenge & Prompt
Art Challenge: As a Focal Point
Journal Prompt: Coming into Focus
For these pages, I used round Gelli printing plates in all three sizes: 4" round, 6" round, and 8" round
along with LOTS of StencilGirl stencils!
Inspired by Gelli Arts' Gelli Stamping Layered Circles! video,
I gave this stamping and layering technique a try and had a TON of fun with the process!
My goal was to use a different stencil in each circle to create lots of variety.
I also wanted a range of colors, too.
The repeated circle shapes unify the composition wonderfully.
Inspired by the journal prompt Coming into Focus, I incorporated the quote:
"If you want to know where your heart lies, look to where your mind wanders."
Below are details of my pages:
Stencils used:
