When I came cross this
quote Creative minds are rarely tidy I immediately knew what to do: make
a messy painty page.
First I started by
making a stencil with paint splatters.
Then the fun could
begin:
using a sponge and different colorful colors I stenciled through my new
stencil.
Next I dripped some
acrylic paint onto my page and to top of the mess I added some splattering.
Now I just needed to add
the quote and done.

I like the fact that I
finally managed to make a page with still some white space coming through, yeah.
What impressed me, other than the page and the quote, was the fact you made your own stencil. Stencils are SO expensive, and you'll be able to use this one for years to come, I suspect. And of course, I loved the messy page, too. It was very, very clever.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are made out of acetate, so I can use and re-use the stencils I make.
DeleteWowzers! I love that page and the stencil is fabulous!! The colours are luscious and the splatters brilliant. Very excellent indeedy!! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you twinkletoes, such a fun word wowzer :-)

DeleteGorgeous colours and a very creative piece. I really like your stencil.
ReplyDeleteThanks scrapmate, I'm very glad I bought this heat tool last year, it may take me some time to make a stencil but tit saves me a lot of money.
DeleteSounds like you had lots of fun doing this! The quote is perfect for us crafters too...
ReplyDeleteIt was loads of fun and I needed to tidy up a bit afterwards :-)
