Come Fly with Me! HOT AIR BALLOON STENCILS AND MASKS IN 2 SIZES

Hot Air Balloons are stencil-and-masks sets, available individually, at StencilGirl.com.  The larger sheet, containing both mask and stencil, measures 6" x 6" and the smaller, 4" x 4".  Except for size, they are identical.  The set shown below has the right-side mask removed from the sheet and placed to the right, for easier viewing --

Today's post starts with an imprint made with the 6"x 6" stencil; for the balloon, I used a sponge dipped sparingly in heavy-bodied Titanium White.  This method of application, combined with the background (which also had texture) gave me a surface that easily accepted Pan Pastels.  

The background had been made earlier, with the same sponging technique and my 6" x 6" Swatton Grid Stencil.

Swatton Grid Stencil looks like this --

More prints made with my 6" x 6" Hot Air Balloon stencil ... 

The background above is a monoprint.  The balloon was added with sponge-daubing Titanium White heavy-body paint thru the stencil.

The above background is a vintage paper painted purple with acrylic paint.  The balloon was added in the same way as described earlier.

The above background is a sheet of foreign newsprint (comics page) which I had painted green with acrylic paint.

Many thanks for stopping by my blog today!
