I was resting little while the blog.
On the PaperArtsy blog Topic 12 Stencil this time, I was always inspired by Lin Brown's use of stencils. Her blog 'Yours Artfully' is here. And I followed her tutorial of my background.
I took 8 x 8 Journal and I made the cover first.
I glued some Prima's cutting papers onto the cover background then I brayered by Honey Dew, Wisteria, Cheesecake and Caribbean Sea Fresco Paints. Next I used Prima and Tim Holtz's stencils by Taupe and Nougat Fresco Paints. After the paints dried I paint Snow Flake Fresco and sprayed water.
The background was completely dry I used StencilGirl's bird stencil and doodling the flower and bubbles.
I made layers, 1, I stamped Linne Perrella's LPC 009 onto the section tracing paper by cobalt Archival. 2, Die cut the Dial of a clock and distressed it by paints and texture paste. 3, I used gold embossing powder and made the letters.
Finally I glued 1-3 staffs onto the background.
This is the journal cover what I made, I'm so sorry for long description without the process photos.
Thank you so much for stopping by and have a wonderful craft days.
