Do you love stencils? Do you love to art journal?
Do you love StencilGirl?
Me too!!
Today I used the Rural Buildings stencil by Andrew Borloz and the Love Story stencil designed by Cathy Nichols to create this whimsical art journal page.
The process: Gel Press plate, alcohol inks and ghost printing
You can see a video here where I show how to do this technique in depth using the Unfinished Stencil Designed by Seth Apter.
You can also watch my video here where I created the Optimist art journal page.

One of my favorite things about stencils is using their design and making it your own. I "altered" the rays of the sun by extending the lines outward and then using the leftover alcohol ink that was on the stencil to color them in.
I also love to doodle extra embellishments around the designs
and outline the images!
The journaling that goes around the border reads:
"They found a little courage that simmered in the sun
They blended it with patience and just a spice of fun
They poured in hope and laughter and then with a sudden twist
They stirred it all together and made an optimist"
poem by Nekia Thomson
Thanks for visiting!
