There's 10 total! Why? Because.... we are addicted to creating art!
On that note, lets begin with the 4 stencils designed by
Carol Wiebe
Carol says: "I love to collage, so I used the stencils to make patterns on copy paper with black acrylic paint. Then, I cut up the stenciled machine parts and placed pieces of them in different configurations around the page. It is a fun way to work with stencils, and "make them your own."

Carol's TIP:
An artist is free to use as little or as much as she wants to of a given stencil!
Flourish by Carol Wiebe |
"We get these moments of grace in our lives that are so significant that
they encourage us to flourish," Carol says. "However, a flourish is also the name of a
decoration. I thought it would be interesting to represent that huge thing by a
rather insignificant one."
We'll share Carol's insights and more art she made with her S346, S347, S348, and S349 stencils in our January Scoop newsletter!

S341 |
Daniella's creative process around these stencils had to do with travel and photography.
S342 Earth Crackles |
S343 Sweet Bundles |
Dried mud along the shores of the Mei Kong River in Vietnam inspired Earth Crackles and...
Sweet Bundles derived from a packages at a road-side snack shop, also in Vietnam.
S345 Tide Pool |
Tide pools capture the sea.
Daniella captured colors with her Tide Pool stencil and you can use her technique (pictured above) to capture your own tide pool:
1. Spray stencil with water.
2. Rub Inktense block over the surface.
3. Re-wet.
4. Print on paper.
S344 Spiral Fillets |
S340 are approaching 6,000
