Welcome to Rain's Thursday Art Date. Her theme is 'stencil art' this week. I am not really a crafter but I made a simple dragonfly stencil, cut it out with an exacto knife as pictured below, and used my Sharpie oil paint pens with the stencil to create the above on chocolate brown cardstock. I suffered some (paint) bleeding on the blue dragonfly so I stencilled in a white one next to it to cover that up. I am pleased with the effect. Thanks for inspiring my creativity with stencils today Rain!

Beautiful piece, so cleverly made. Hugs, Valerie

You did a good job covering up the bleeding.
ReplyDeleteDespite the blood (ouch), looks like you had fun with the project:)
ReplyDeleteOh Chris, sorry, I meant paint bleeding.
DeleteOh Yes!! You Nailed It!! What A Creative Post. Many Thanx!!
ReplyDeleteCheers
Its so pretty!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you did a great job of cutting
ReplyDeleteI love your stencil. It looks purrfect!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like fun and a very nice result too. I guess you could make cookies from your stencil. That's where my mind goes ;)
ReplyDeleteYour dragonflies are sweet. I look forward to seeing them again. But more snow today....
ReplyDeleteA fun thing about your stencil is now you can use it anytime you wish.
so nicely done my friend
ReplyDeletereminded me childhood days when dragonflies were encountered often in fields
Cute dragonfly.
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome Christine! I'm really happy to see you actually MADE stencils!!! Which I did not lol...your dragonflies look amazing!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love how you created this; it's beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteNow that is how a stencil should be ... it is beautiful and if you hadn't told us that your white dragonfly was covering a mistake, we would never have guessed as the picture is perfect just as it it. I am impressed ... guess I was too lazy to cut my own stencil ... just went for a stencil effect. Maybe I will do it right the next time :) Beautifully done, Christine :)
