How to Doodle With Your Stamps and Stencils

Sometimes I want to add marks and shapes in my art journal, but I'm just too tired to think of them.  Maybe the muse isn't grabbing me.  How about using images in the stamps and stencils you already have to add visual interest when you're just not "feeling it."


The key?  Use parts of stencils, and stamp your images on tissue paper.  That's what I did inside the two birds in this art journal page.  


Not sure what I mean?  Here's a video tutorial showing you can use your supplies "Outside the Box."








Do you have stamps and stencils you could use this way?  I'd love to see examples if you use this technique! (use #jessicasporndesigns if you post it somewhere so we can find it)
Are you signed up for my newsletter?  The second Thursday of every month is Thankful Thursday, when I send a free download of my art just to my newsletter subscribers.  So if you would like it, make sure you sign up today!
