Why a StandUp Bass? Well…that is what I see when I walk into my husband’s music room next to my studio. I love this instrument. It is massive and beautiful and I love the sound of it too. I thought it can represent so many things like music, art, harmony, it is a good birthday card theme etc.

Here is what I created for today:

This is a gift card holder. I created it using two manila tags and here is how:

Starting with Tag 1

After you used the chalk through the stencil on tag one- you have a lot of access of chalk on top of the stencil

    Nat, it looks like I just commented, but it was back in August. Thanks for the second chance to win the cello. I love the technique you used of double stenciling!

    Love the techniques! I especially like how the bass looks when using a second color and offsetting it a little and stamping.
