Celebrating Other StencilGirl Designers!


Stitch a Doily, a 6" x 6" stencil by Maria McGuire, has long been one of my favorites.  In the past I've used the stencil in its entirety.  Recently I altered the stencil with scissors, cutting out the center (and saving it!)  Today's post starts with close-ups from a work-in-progress of mine.  First up:  Two images created with Stitch a Doily--








Second up:  Two images created with  Featuring Blueprints of Archeological Treasures Small Stencil, by Carolyn Dube, another 6" x 6" favorite of mine.  Part of it was used here --





And another part of Carolyn's stencil was used here --




Next up:  A mixed-media collage I've developed using a 9" x 12" mask by Valerie Sjodin, Spirit Wind -- and since I had been a fan following Valerie Sjodin online for years before she joined the StencilGirl team, I was especially delighted at the privilege to use a mask of her design:




Today's next-to-last art sample, below, was developed with Mary Beth Shaw's 6" x 6" Curves along with Undulating Line Waves, designed by Trish McKinney --





Bringing down the curtain for today's post is this piece on stretched canvas, created using Soulful Scribbles Flourishes by Tracy Bautista:
