StencilGirl: Stenciled and Shaped Books

Hi everyone, I'm over on the StencilGirl blog today sharing a new project... a shaped hand-made book made from stencils! I can't tell you how much I love how this turned out... there are some better pictures and an outline of the process in the post, so head on over and check it out!

P.S. This is one of the projects we'll be making in my stencil classes at Papercraft Clubhouse on October 17th-18th in Connecticut. So if you're in the area, get more class info in my last post and on the Clubhouse newsletter and Facebook page for more details. There will be 3 designs for you to choose from in this class (You need to sign up by 10/1 to be guaranteed the design you want,) and the class will come with the stencil! This should be lots of fun... hope to see you there!

Visiting from SG - this book is AWESOME! I need to go buy this stencil...as the dragon is my year : ) Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks Cathy! So glad it helped to inspire you! And I'm a tiger, but I kind of gravitate toward the dragon too ;)

Wow Gwen, I am in AWE of this gorgeous book you created. I love your process, and LOVE how you use stencils, and the many layers! You make me want to rush out to make my own artistic journal! Thank you for the inspiration.

Fall Classes at Papercraft Clubhouse If you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, you've probably already seen me posting, but I wanted to put everything together in one place - I have three new classes that I'll be teaching on October 17th and 18th at Papercraft Clubhouse in Westbrook, CT. So if you're in the area and interested, give them a call to sign up! Here are the classes... they're all mixed media, based on working with stencils (naturally!) Friday night from 6-9pm, I'll be teaching Beneath the Surface. I'm totally in love with these projects, and I hope we'll get plenty of people coming...

StencilGirl: October StencilClub! It's the start of a new month, and that means this month's StencilClub stencils have been revealed over at StencilGirl! I'm totally in love with this month's stencils... I've been playing with them since I got them. Today I'm sharing two art journal spreads that I made with them over on StencilGirl Talk... head on over for more details! A little hint... the one on the right uses my first (but not last!) homemade screen print. It turned out great! Anyway, hope you enjoy :)
