Hello Stencil Lovers!
This was a Fun Hop to participate in.
Rubbermoon Stamps are pretty cool!
I chose Afternoon Tea designed
by Jane Cather.
The Rubbermoon Stamp Company is owned by Kristin Powers...
who is also a stencil designer for StencilGirl Products!
I used the 4" mini stencil called MidCentury Modern Elements #3.
I used the stencils in the background.
I stamped the image with StazOn Ink onto tissue paper.
The cheap old kind....
The cheap old kind....
I was able to make it reversible.
She could recline in either direction that way.
I decided how I wanted to compose this page
and used Matte Medium to adhere the lady onto the right spot.
I gave her a lamp to read by...
and another plush chair for when company comes.
This is a perfect start to my Daily page for Sunday the 5th.
I love starting a new spread!
Relaxing and reclining with her cup of tea....
What a lucky Lady!

Happy Arting!
I love that I found your blog, she looks so comfy sprawled on the couch. What is really in that tea cup?? I wonder! Lissag123@verizon.net
ReplyDeleteI'm coming over with my coffee! xox
ReplyDeleteYour journal page is wonderful! I'm tagging along with Corrine!
ReplyDeleteWhat's better than tea and a comfy couch. What type of tissue did you use.
ReplyDeleteI love what you did with this. The colors are rich, as usual. You are so good about doing this regularly. I, too, wonder about what kind of tissue you used.
ReplyDeleteI love using tissue paper with stencils and/or stamps.... I use the cheap dollar store kind with modgepodge or white glue - love the benefit of 'perfect placement'!
ReplyDeletenow where did I put my tea bags.... I feel like reclining.
Do you use just cheap ole Dollar store tissue or do you buy from an art supply place?
ReplyDeleteHey All! I never thought to mention what kind of tissue paper it is! It is the cheap ole dollar store version! Probably from a Christmas Present last week! Thanks for all the kind words. Art is SO much FUN!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I have plenty of that tissue! No hunting required.
DeleteWhat a fun page!
ReplyDeleteJanet, that's beautiful and I can imagine lots of wonderful journalling in the yellow area on the wall! What a fabulous page!
ReplyDeleteJanet, I swear I just want to crawl into your brain and watch it work :) Genius!!
ReplyDeleteVery cool stamping technique Janet! As always drool over your pages!
ReplyDeleteJanet I'm always amazed at your journal pages...simply creative overload!! I'm hoping one day my pages can look so inviting! Beautiful job...as always!!
ReplyDeleteI just may have to start this! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love this lady on your page. You make me just want to visit her and have a cup of tea. Your pages make me feel so comforted. Love them and you. p.s. I haven't seen the adoption papers yet.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE how you used this stamp! Your pages are always a treat to see!
ReplyDeleteKicking my feet up with a cup of tea to join you two on my chaise lounge. I am there! Thanks for the tips.
ReplyDeleteI want that room! Such a creative use of stamps and stencils.
ReplyDeleteI love this - just need to change the cup of tea for a cup of coffee!!!
ReplyDeleteI really am digging the movement and dimension given by using the stencil oh so right (angles).
ReplyDeleteLove the bright colors and the placement of each element - gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute stamp. Thanks for the tip about putting it on tissue. The finished image is just perfect.
ReplyDeleteI love your pages! So much fun!
ReplyDeleteLove your finished page! And thanks for the tip to use tissue paper to make images reversible. So clever!
ReplyDeleteGreat tip to use tissue paper for the stamping so you have a choice in how the finished project will look. Have to remember that. Great project. the lady does look comfortable - probably thinking up her next project, or relaxing after finishing one.
ReplyDeleteYour art piece has such atmosphere!
ReplyDeleteI like the whole piece, but especially the way you used the stencil for the background. Great idea.
ReplyDeleteJanet, as I sit here drinking my ginger tea, I wish I had that couch to relax on! lol Very nice- thanks for hopping!
ReplyDeleteLove the tissue paper tip! Wracking my brain trying to figure out how to make it work with ceramics...lol

Always so many wonderful ideas for use of products! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great looking piece you created.
ReplyDeleteLove the piece, especially your use of the tissue paper, I will have to try that with my collection of used tissue from gifts.
ReplyDeleteI really like this. The more I see people use tissue paper, the more I start thinking of it when I get a bit 'stuck'. Thank you.
ReplyDeletenot only a lucky lady, a beautiful one as well!
ReplyDeleteWonderful ideas!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that technique to reverse an image! Many times I've wanted to use a stamp but it was "facing" the wrong way. This is brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThank you for teaching us about the reverse image. I know that alot of us will be using that in the future. But wait a minute, how did you know that I'm laying on the couch, drinking coffee on the cold, snowy day with a lamp beside me. Do you have one of those cameras??? LOL. Seriously though, this stamp is awesome. I can see making cards and sending it off to my girlfriends. They'd so love it. Thanks again for sharing this with us.
ReplyDeleteI love your lady relaxing with her cuppa!
ReplyDeleteShe will need the hot liquid for this cold winter!
very nice. loved the use of the tissue paper. thanks for the inspiration
ReplyDeletesuper nice page, love it!
ReplyDeleteI feel the nostalgia...I love her sitting there all comfy with her cup of tea (and I will be the first to say hot tea is the nectar of masters of the universe!). Thank you so very much for sharing with us!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little set piece. Your colors are so vibrant. I have to try the tissue paper idea for reversing images.
ReplyDeleteI, too, love using tissue paper--first learned the technique from Claudine Hellmuth and I love this afternoon tea stamp and what you have done here. It feels good. From one Ohio girl to another (this one now living in VT), glad to discover your blog. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteLove the tip of using tissue for a reversible image! Terrific project!!
