Stencil Girl is releasing four of my new stencils today! I hope to have some step out photos and videos for you in the future, but in the meantime, here are some project photos for you!
Seven Hearts and Hearts, Flowers and More, were inspired by the happy mail I have been sending out all year. A group of us artists started a Facebook Group called "The Angel Project." We list the name and address of someone we know who is going through a hard time, whether it's an illness, a personal crisis, an accident - whatever. And we send that person "happy mail." These stencils are perfect for creating cards and more to give someone in need a lift or just to let them know they're on your mind. They work well together or separately.
Back in the winter, several members of Stencil Club requested owl stencils. I love owls - from OWL in Winnie the Pooh, to Hedwig in Harry Potter, owls hold a special place in my heart. So it was with great joy that I designed "Three Owls on a Branch" and "Horned Owl." Here are art journal pages I did while playing with them. Again, I hope to have a video for you soon.
I know I'm very late announcing the winner of the Namaste stencil. (Here's the post with all the projects from that stencil.
Why so late? I am moving (locally) and it has been crazy! How could I have so much stuff? I moved 5 years ago and purged. I swore not to over-accumulate again but it all went out the window. So here we are doing it all over again and I swear -- never again!!! If you're curious - here's my house listing... I am so sad to leave this beautiful house but I know the move is right. We're going to Montclair, a more urban suburban area, just one town over.
Ladies - send your snail mail addresses to me at jessicabethsporn at gmail dot com and I will get your stencils to you (after 7/7)!
And, why not have another GIVEAWAY! Leave me a comment below and one person will receive one of the notecards I made using my new stencils, with a lovely handwritten note from moi!
AND... If you are in the US - Happy Upcoming July 4th. Here's a free download for your personal use -- just because. Just right-click and save, or click and drag it to your desktop. Have a great start to summer!
Your comments make me so happy and let me know you were here. I read and treasure every comment and will happily answer any questions as soon as I can.

ReplyDeleteWow Jessica your new owl stencils are gorgeous, just love them for the the first sight!
ReplyDeletecongrats to the three winners of the stencils-another very generous offer Jessica! I am so impressed by your never ending creativity not only in your art but also the stencils you keep coming out with. I did look at your house (I'm always looking at houses and sometimes open houses-just because I enjoy it:) I immediately noticed many similarities with mine - I LOVE the old natural wood and your antique pieces especially. Though my house is MUCH smaller I see they were built around the same time which is why they look so much alike. PS- would you please email me your new addy?
ReplyDeleteLove your new stencils....just delightful!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the Namaste winners. Of course I went to your house link! How can you bear to leave such a beautiful home ...with enormous rooms?! I think your new stencils would be sooooo useful, and I LOVE owls.
ReplyDeleteLove your new stencils Jessica, especially the hearts one. And your home is magnificent! I'm a lover of old homes and I can only imagine how hard it is to leave this one. But, it sounds like it will be a good move for you. Thanks for the giveaway!

ReplyDeleteYour owl stencils are great; I love bird items. And the hearts are so pretty and I can imagine all sorts of uses. Good luck with the move - having moved multiple times I know how much of a chore it is. And yet cleansing.

ReplyDeleteSo love the owl stencils.
ReplyDeleteAll of the stencils are amazing. I am really fond of the owl stencils since reading an article in National Geographic and learned so much that I didn't know about their habits.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great give-a-way. Good luck to everyone.
