Lose Your Mind with StencilGirl® Stencils

Hi, Everyone! Michele Kosciolek here! I am quite honored to have been invited to be a guest over at StencilGirl® Talk, thank you so much!

In the past year or so my StencilGirl® collection has grown by leaps and bounds and I definitely have my favorites, four of which you will see in today’s project.

Today I am sharing a journal spread, the very first in a new handmade journal I am putting together.  This journal will be all two page spreads.

I started with a piece of watercolor paper and covered it with white gesso.  I did some random painting with Dina Wakley paints, turquoise, olive and elephant and with the Circles, Circles stencil and a baby wipes I removed some of the paint. This created my background.

I added some piece of old dictionary page and stenciled Face It Small in black paint. Using more DWM paint; blushing, buff, ruby, cheddar, sky and my favorite paint brush…my finger, I painted in the face.

With Vintage Typewriter Numbers and Vintage Typewriter Alphabet I stenciled, in black, random letters and numbers exploding out of the top of the face.  These are then outlined with Posca Paint Pens.

I hand lettered the quote with my Posca Paint Pens.

So there you have it, the finished pages. Thanks for visiting!!
