When you've got a stencil and a mask, you can take any background and transform it! I'm using my Strong Women stencils to play around on envelopes, on an old paint palette, a gel print and in an art journal. Lots of play in this video!
One of the many great things about stencils is how many different ways you can play with them! Want more ideas for how to use stencils? Then check out my online workshop, Joy of Stenciling Workshop acolorfuljourney.com/?page_id=35214

Want to play? Want to know specific ways to let go and have fun? Join the fun in my free mixed media workshop Permission to Play acolorfuljourney.com/permission-play-free-workshop
You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on YouTube and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.
