Daily

Have I mentioned how much I love this
Butterfly Duo Stencil by Maria McGuire?
I know that I just ysed it a few weeks ago...
but I couldn't resist!

Do you notice a second stencil underneath the butterfly?
I want to get better at combining stencils.
Using a single motif from the Medium Damask Stencil
by Michelle Ward...
I stenciled a yellow flourish and doodled a little bit around it...
Then placed the butterfly over it.






I enjoyed the damask flourish so much
I wanted to use it again.
Damask Medium Stencil by Michelle Ward.
This time I used some sprays





I had a wet and messy stencil, full of blue spray.
Instead of wasting the color....
since it is my favorite...
I pressed the upside down stencil onto the second side of the spread.
See how it is reversed? 
So one side I doodled heavily and the other side
I left simple and beautiful.
Hey, it all works for me!
Happy Arting my Friends!
