Stenciled Art Journal Page

Hello friends, thanks so much for stopping by.  Today I am sharing a Stenciled Art Journal Page - it is the first time I have done anything like this - I got the beautiful stencil over 2 years ago when I am on the Australian Mixed Media Road Show - it is designed by Lorri Lennox - her work is very inspiring   I was always going to create with it....and finally I have ....


I started by using a black marker and drew the face outline, hair, featured etc.  Colouring it as interesting - I am building up to using all paint and started by colouring her face using Chameleon Art Pens, followed by the eyes, mouth and lips.  The hair was harder than I imagined but I got there eventually - I will master it on future ones - hopefully! 


One of the Little Birdie Crafts Wendy Moon Light Flowers was glued to her fringe - it was my starting place for the rest of the background.  I sponged all white card stock using Imagine Radiant Neon Inks in Electric Yellow, Coral Pink and Blue, blending as I went using a Sponge Dauber. 

Butterflies from the Spellbinders Sparrow Stamp and Die Set from the Earth Air Water Collection by Stephanie Low have been randomly stamped over the background using Imagine Memento Ink in Tuxedo Black and colour added with the Chameleon Pens One butterfly has been stamped onto white card stock, coloured and cut using the co-ordinating die, this has been popped up next to the flower.  Liquid Glitter has been added and extra details using a White Paint Pen.


The sentiment stickers are from Cosmo Cricket and the Ricrac from my stash.  The larger stencil is from my stash and has been singed using Imagine Memento Ink in Teal Zeal using a Sponge Dauber and edged using a White Paint Pen.  Lastly Washi Tape has also been added.
