My Happy Scrap Space: Darkroom Door DT - Round Arch Stripes Small Stencil

Hello Darkroom Door fans!

Today I am sharing my projects for DARKROOM DOOR featuring the NEW RELEASE Round Arch Stripes Small Stencil.

First up I created a set of bold cards to showcase the stencil.

First I created some collage papers using acrylic inks, Derwent Inktense pencils, Neocolor II crayons and Posca Pens. I also added some stencilling to the pages using white gesso and the Starry Night Small Stencil. I added some stamping too using the Random Thoughts Abstract Stamp with Cobalt Archival Ink.

Once the collage papers were dry, I placed the stencil over the paper and traced around the edges with a black Micron pen. I added dounle-sided tape to the back and then cut out the stripes.

I cut out some card fronts from smooth white cardstock and painted each one using acrylic paint.

I then placed the stencil on the plain painted background and used it as a guide for where to stick down the fussy cut stripes.

To make the stripes stand out a little more, I outlined them using a white Posca Pen.

Next I stamped some sentiments from the You Are Everything Stamp Set and some stars from the Stars Stamp Set using the Cobalt Archival Ink.

I fussy cut the sentiments and stars and added them to the card fronts.

Next I created an art journal page with a bit more of a grungy feel.

I added some acrylic paints and collage to the page first using some torn images from the Botanical Notes Collage Sheets as well as some scraps of gold tissue paper. I added some stamping too using the Faded Circles Abstract Stamp with Jet Black Archival Ink.

Next I added the Round Arch Stripe Stencil image using white gesso. Once the gesso was completely dry, I added some journaling in the stripes.

I scribbled around each stencilled image with a Stabilo All black pencil and then activated it with water letting it drip down the page. I added a bit more stamping as well as some doodling with crayons.
