Half Empty, Half Full, Overflowing - STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge January reminder post

 STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge

 

I used  these ARTplorations Stencils:

Circle Overlap

Bubbles Mini 

and 

Peeking Sunflowers

to make this print using my gel press.



I glued the print to a piece of cardboard cut from a cereal box. I folded and glued down the edges.



This made a fun little canvas for my  drawing.



I saw a similar drawing on a friend's facebook page. I loved the sentiment and had to draw it.

Beautiful Butterfly Box - STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge

 











To make this box I started with a piece of designer paper that has been in my stash for a long time. (not because I was hoarding it and not wanting to use it because I like it so much, Sometime that is the case, but this time I had it a long time because I didn't really like it.) So I thought it would be fun to print on.
 I put a couple of layers of paint on the paper. 


I then used ARTplorations Peeking Sunflowers Slimline Stencil for the top layer of paint. 


I then using a template made a box that opens revealing 3 drawers. 
I decorated the box using STAMPlorations Blossom Like a Butterfly
