Mixed Media Paper Quilt by Lizzy Wurmann - Creative Team Thursday

Hi all, it's Lizzy with you today with a fun project to try.

I wanted to create a quilt with my own patterned paper, so I stenciled over previously painted papers and cut 1.5 and 2 inch squares to start making the design. 

To make it easier for me, I traced a diagonal on the cardstock and then I glued one square on each side of that line and from there, I started gluing one on each side of those until I completed the page. 

My plan was to make a card with the small panel and leave the big one for other projects cutting it into stripes, circles or squares or leave it as it is to use it as a base for a journal page or a collage.

Follow along with my video YouTube to see how I created this paper quilt step-by-step.

Stencils used:

Dots and Dashes Stencil

Squares and Circles Stencil

Hearts, Flowers, and More Stencil

Hebrew Calligraphy Stencil

Apple Pomegranate Stencil

Until next time!

How to Make Cards Using Stencils and Paint - Video and Giveaway

In case you missed it, here's a post with one of my newer stencils from Stencil Girl Products! 

Today I'm excited to show you how I made some cards with my  "On the Farm" Stencil!  I designed this stencil to so that the elements could be mixed and matched.  I love moving the elements around to create cards.

I experimented with tracing some of the elements lightly onto watercolor paper, and then painting with acrylic inks (although watercolors would do fine too!).

I experimented with stenciling some of the imagery, and then doodling over with Posca markers and Gel pens.

As you can see, I moved the stencil around on my paper to get the arrangements I wanted.  Here's a video to show you the process:

You can also watch Making Cards with Stencils on YouTube.  And here's a link for using Acrylic Inks as watercolors.  

I hope you enjoyed this video and it gave you some ideas!
