    Are you making pages in your artistic bullet journals and planners for 2022?

    Oh good!

    Valerie Sjodin has new stencils and Masks on a Mid Century Modern theme that are perfectly fun for journals, cards, and mixed media art. 



    The Mid Century Modern Circle Patterns Stencil and Mask are divine layered or not. Your choice!

    They celebrate stars and florals in such a fun way full of possibility! It can add modern pizazz to a plain journal page, be a background pattern, or central focus of a piece of art.

    Tip: Visit Valerie’s Stencil page to mix and match these stencils with others like the Mid-Century Modern Banners to title your journal pages in a Retro style.

    Up next, Bead Swag!



    This is a lovely stencil also meant for layering. with itself or other stencils.

    Valerie says, "This fun Mid Century Modern Bead Swag Stencil dances across your artwork either simply with the shapes and circles, delicately with the beaded garland, or layered with a stencil of your choice as a pattern underneath. It can also be used to trace around for collage garland."

    Medium: Watercolor. Extra stencil used to layer: Spirit Wind, S578

    Of course, it is not necessary to layer it. Imagine this elegant pattern on a wedding guest book or used to create invitations. 




    Use Circle Sticks as a Mid Century Modern bird nest or stick pattern to decorate your journal page or any artwork. 





    There are three chicken wire patterns in the Chicken Wire Mask AND they’re even repeatable patterns so you can cover your art with consistent patterning. 







    You can mix and match these with other Mid-Century Modern style stencils and masks on Valerie’s Stencil page.

    Ornate, Curvy, Natural, Mid Century - StencilGirl has the stencils!

    Persian Rugs, Spanish Moss, Line Waves, and Mid Century Modern Banners can only mean designers Kate Thompson, Trish McKinney, and Valerie Sjodin have new stencils!


    KATE THOMPSON

    Ornate and intricate, Kate Thompson's Persian Rug Stencils will have you saying wow, how did they make that a stencil!



    Kate writes, "I use most of my stencils primarily with joint compound and then rub inks or paints into them but they work just as well traditionally with paint and inks. I have included samples of art and video showing how I use them. I incorporate them into some of my semi-finished artworks as you will see."


    Art Nouveau Rug Stencil, 9"x12", L695
    Art Nouveau is one of the more beautiful design categories in Kate's opinion. The flowing and intercepting lines make beautiful art. As with the other designs, you can use pieces of the design by itself or use the whole design.





    Morocco Rug Stencil, 9"x12, L697




    Kate travels and teaches in Morocco and this beautiful background design came to mind. It also has the same feeling as a Persian rug. You can use one of the elements alone or use the entire design.

    Floral Waterfall Stencil, 9"x12", L696



    "I love the intricacy and delicate work," Kate writes. "So much of my own art contains it. Persian rugs have always been one of my most favorite types of designs. I use to design prints for a living and always loved when there was a Persian, exotic print needed. This particular stencil can be used in many ways. You can use the repeated pattern at the top to add delicate backgrounds to your artwork. The border could be used separately as well for border prints or use the entire design which creates a beautiful piece of work all by itself."



    TRISH McKINNEY


    Natural and random, Trish McKinney's Spanish Moss Masks and Line Wave Masks will make you ooh and ahh!

    They are available in a multitude of sizes for your art-making pleasure.



    Use Trish's Spanish Moss Masks when you wish to achieve a natural, wild, perhaps even flamboyant element in your paintings.





    Use Trish’s Line Waves Masks to add unexpected elements to your fine artwork. The bunched lines create a focal while the entire mask creates a marvelous background or a web that adds cohesion.

    Rose Bouquets



    Roses are blooming sweetly in Jennifer's small and mini Rose Bouquet stencils. Lovely for any art medium you choose but the mini would look fabulous on note cards.

    You can discover more tutorials on Cynthia's blog.

    Birch Forest and Meadows


    Cynthia Silveri was inspired to design her Birch Forest Stencil by the striking contrast of birch tree trunks and how they lighten a dark forest.


    Use Birch Forest alone or layer the two panels to add depth.


    Cornflowers and grassy fields wave gently in the breeze in Cynthia's Meadows Stencil.




    Architectural Interpretations


    Go new places when you use Wendy Aikin's Over the Bridge and Top of the Hill Stencils in your art!

    Wendy was inspired to make Over the Bridge when she saw people bungee jumping off a bridge in Bend, Oregon. Top of the Hill is an altered image of pilgrims headed towards Santiago de Compostela in Spain.



    Near Miss and Totally Triangular 

    Wendy included a target in a piece of original artwork and the idea for Near Miss was born.



    Metal sculptures Wendy viewed through an industrial window inspired Totally Triangular.
