Art Journal Page with New Stencils from Stencil Girl



Remember the circle journal I'm participating in?  Well it was time to create two pages in Susan Jane's journal.  Susan asked us to use trees as our inspiration.  It just so happens that I recently created a stencil with trees, at the request of Stencil Girl creative team member Judy Shea.   I used it, and my two newest flower stencils, plus Carolyn Dube's "Use Your Words" stencil, to make this spread in Susan Jane's journal.

Here are the 4 new stencils!
There are more pictures and a description of my process on Stencil Girl Talk today.  Hope you'll check it out.

There's a video too!



Unfortunately, my filming cut off when I was creating the top of my page, using Carolyn Dube's "Use Your Words" stencil.  You can see the technique here, on Carolyn's blog.


I hope you'll visit at Stencil Girl Talk!  And I hope Susan Jane is happy with these pages in her journal; Tracy Woodsford - Susan Jane's journal is on its way to you!

 And there's a GIVEAWAY!  Your comments make me so happy and let me know you were here.  So I will giveaway all three of my new stencils - the two flowers and Judy's trees - to one randomly picked commenter!  So please leave me a message by Wednesday at 7PM EST to be eligible to win!

UPDATE:  The winner is Linda of Artfully Yours!  There's an email on the way and the stencils will be in the mail as soon as I get her address.
