ATC Mixup Daley

Mermaids Stencil and Masks

Acrylic paints

Start off by dabbing two tones of blue acrylic paint on to a blank journal. i use a make up sponge for a smoother finish. 

Next take a texture background stamp and stamp it in navy blue along the center of the pages. Take a few smaller ones and stamp those around the pages.

Use a makeup sponge to dab paint through the stencils and leave to fully dry. Then place the stencil back over the image and draw around the outline of the stencil with a fine black pen.

StencilGirl Free Your Mind Art Journal Page

Hi all

I created  this simple art journal page using the new stencil by StencilGirl. 

I coated the page with gesso and when that has dried, i spritzed ink over the top

I used blue acrylic paint over the stencil with the faces and then turned the stencil over and used the other side to get a mirror image. I then put a bit of magenta on my finger and stamped away.
