Colour is a Power for StencilGirl

Hello Hello ... Today I am sharing an Art Journal Page using the Typography theme for StencilGirl.

This was an easy theme for me as I LOVE using type and text in all my projects so this one was a breeze!

I started with a coat of gesso on my page to seal it. (I am working in a large Dylusions Journal)

I then used gel medium to collage on some book paper and torn mesh tape before adding some stenciling with heavy gesso through the Central Ave Stencil.

Once that was dry, I used modeling paste through the Wall of Words stencil across the middle of my page and popped it aside to dry.

I wanted to make a little flippy bit for the middle of the page, so used gel medium to join the pages together to make the book paper element a little bigger and backed it in white card.

I then used my fave Hue Tint Tone Shade stencil with a waterproof pen to trace the design.

Lindys Magicals were perfect for adding color to the design and I added a little water to them to color.

Back to the page, I used Lindys Magicals in Blues and Black to add the color to the page but 'puddling' the color around the raised stencil words. Added a few scribbles and all done!
