DT..STENCILS

 Hello everyone,

Time for a new challenge over at LITTLE RED WAGON  where our lovely Brenda is hostess and her chosen theme is....STENCIL POWER - use a stencil...

Well, I had a blast making my project, no bad language, all went smoothly AND, I used up more stash..

this is the stash I found in my drawer, it is my craft supplies drawer that I don't go into a lot

it has glue,tapes,drops etc, and I only venture into it looking for that sort of stuff...

These big hearts were a draw..

and considered drilling a hole to thread string so they could hang...BUT...

I found these in another draw, and they said, pick me, pick me,

So I did, and then made a decision on the stencil to use.

.all of them.

So they were primed with gesso..

Then painted with water paint but out of a tube.

Several times to get the red the right brightness..

Enough was enough, I suddenly had the need to carry on..

This was the first stencil and I used thick paste.

second one, and roughed it up a bit, didn't want it smooth..

third stencil, a very pretty floral..

and the fourth, a leafy one. and the last was a lettering stencil..

So there they are, all painted and stenciled.

then I sprayed them,....yikes

They came out a bit grungy..

So doused them with water to quieten things down..

It didn't...

But went with, just changed my design or idea a bit...

die cutting a gold LOVE sentiment.

adding wooden hearts, one each.

Threaded my strings and...DONE!!

So, there you go....

drag out those stencils and come join us

HERE

Thank you so much for stopping by..

I'll see you later on..as I'll be back.

Luv CHRISSYxx
