Scrap 365 Gallery

You should be able to get your hands on the next issue of Scrap365 magazine as it hits the shops this week, unless you are a subscriber (like me) & have received it already x
As always it's full of inspiration, ideas, sketches & lots of lovely layouts to look at over a cuppa.
This month I have a Lo in the Stencil gallery.
Stencils are totally my new crafting love. I'm not a naturally messy, painty scrapbooker but by using stencils I feel I can control the wet mediums more on my pages, getting them where I want them and liking the effects that brings.

Durban Days.
I wanted to try using only stencils to make a page and apart from the 12x12 mat, there is no patterned paper on this page. I've used 4 different stencils/masks to decorate the cardstock plus 2 chipboard shapes & the alphas.
I'm really happy with the overall finished effect.
Do you use stencils/masks on your pages?

  5. I love that last photo especially because it shows the close up of the gorgeous contrast between the buildings and the title :)

  6. What a vibrant page - your stencil really works with those sun-filled photos.
