Stencil Theme Week: Day 5

See the previous days: Day 1 / Day 2 / Day 3 / Day 4

Hi friends, it’s Debbie here today for Stencil Theme Week! My stencils that I chose to play with is the Layered Umbrellas Stencils along with the new Watercolor Rectangle Mask Stencil.

I started off with a 5X7 inch panel on a grip mat, placing the Watercolor Rectangle Stencil over the center and ink blended on Marine Blue Ink. Then I took the mask for the rectangle and sprayed on some Pixie Spray so it will hold in place over the inked watercolor panel. Then placing on the layer A over and with a small ink brush I blended on colors – Light pink, light yellow, light teal, and violet. I didn’t find it necessary to mask off each area with the small brush. Because it was a 5X7, I did some creative stenciling. But this was really easy to do! I slide the stencil over and with the last umbrella that was inked up on the right, had another umbrella over it but not perfectly aligned. Next was the Layered Umbrella Stencil B, aligned up and add a slightly dark ink of the same colors. Layer C was the umbrella handle so I used a light gray. Then with the last layer D I did a teal for the water drops.

I then decided I wanted in the blue rectangle some darker blue splatter on it. So I placed the Watercolor Rectangle stencil back over and splattered on along with Pixie Dust for some shimmer.

Then, I die cut out the Umbrella Shaker Die from a solid pink and pattern paper. I knew that I wanted to have the umbrella turned over to add the adorable ducks from the Baby Animals stamp set. So I stamped them up and copic colored the images. And then die cut them out with the coordinating dies.

Of course the duckies would be splashing some water out of the umbrella. I found the perfect droplets from Spring Chicks Stamp Set. Colored the water up and with the coordinating dies die cut them out.

With the Easter Greetings Stamp Set, I stamped out the Happy Spring sentiment with black ink and die cut it out with the coordinating dies.

Trimmed the panel down so it could be matted, and had a little mishap with the trimmer. It has been a while since I’ve used a punch, but I had to use a rounded corner punch. Adhered it all down, with the images popped up with foam squares. 

Thanks for stopping by and stay crafty my friends!
