Stencilfied journal challenge 14

I have skipped a few of the challenges of the Stencilfied journal challenge as I couldn’t really do them due to the products I have used or the lack of stencils. StencilGirl stencils are not easy to get hold of here in the U.K. and the postage from the States is more than the price of a heap of stencils but I have just about managed with the StencilGirl stencils I can buy here and am now on challenge 14.

Now this looked quite straight forward until I looked through my StencilGirl stencil collection and found that every single stencil bar 1, which was one of the large multi pattern stencil, had curved lines!

In the end though I did manage a page I was pleased with

Plus I love this quote!

Stencilfied journal challenge week 8

Week 8 in the Stencilfied journal challenge from StencilGirl was to stencil with glue!

O

I decided to use my quickly glue pen and gilding flakes to make my page.

Once I had finished the background, I just had to add the cockerel to finish it off!

Stencilfied journal week 6

The challenge for week 6 of the Stencilfied journal challenge from StencilGirl is to stencil a page and then poke holes in it.

This was quite a fun one to do. Here is my page.

Not sure if I like it, I love the quote but......... ? Perhaps it will grow on me.

All the stencils used are from StencilGirl. 

I poked holes in the star bursts and have placed silver paper behind them, which doesn’t show up on the photo.

You can join in the challenge too, all the pages from all the people playing along can be found at

Stencilfied journal week 4

The challenge for week four in the Stencilfied journal challenge from Stencil girl was to use your least favourite colour and write about the things you love. 

    After a lot of thinking I decided on black as my least favourite colour in the end. I never wear black or have anything in my home in black. I do use it in my art work but only really for lettering. I wouldn’t say I hated it but it is just not a colour I naturally reach for. So that was the colour I chose.

Here is my page

Which colour would you choose?

StencilGirl Stencilfied journal

I am taking part in the StencilGirl Stencilfied journal challenge this summer. 16 challenges, one each week using StencilGirl stencils.

 We are up to week 3

I decided to cut a leaf out on my Silhouette Cameo and used my Gelli plate to print onto it

I think I might add it to the inside cover of my journal which I made for the challenge.
