Here are my friends joining me this time :
Jamie Dougherty: my wonderful mixed media artist friend from California- check also out her latest painted skateboards…too die for!
Carolyn Dube: who rocked the StandUp Bass last week already!
Andrea Gomoll: my super talented German friend from Berlin – we taught and organized a couple workshops together and she is one of my old Craft Mafia Gang Memberfriends;)
Marsha Valk: from The Netherlands who does AMAZING projects and photos and who I know pretty long now too :)
Maria McGuire: Let’s see what this talented lady does this week- she always surprises me with out of the box and cool projects!!!
What’s the point about this stencil? Man…there is never enough dots- LOL. I love dots – and I use them all the time to tie things together – and I love the possibility of a nice background with it. Check out some samples here:
Here is what I created for today:
I played a bit in my art journal -first creating a background with PanPastels.
Then I placed the stencil on top of the panpastel background and used an eraser through the stencil.
Here you can see how this erased the panpastel through the stencil. I fixated the background afterwards.
Then I added some old sewing pattern paper on top here and there and blended that in with some acrylic inks- as you can see..this lets the dots still shine through.
After spicing it up a bit here and there with stamps I used some Heavy Body Paint and applied this for texture over the Stencil too.
So much fun to layer it with different media to get some depth on an art journal page
Here are the supplies I used:

I love that patterned stencil! Circles of any size are a favorite. I also love the idea of erasing the PanPastels through the stencil. Wonderful pages.

Oooh, love the colours! And those are some cool stamps you used! I think the erasing/rubbing away through the stencil is my all time favourite technique :-D. Thanks for inviting me to join the blog hop! Hugs!
