What’s The Point or…New Stencil with Stencil Girl Products

WhatsthepointKalbach

Ohhh I am so excited about this new What’s The Point stencil too because it has so many possibilities.

For this Scrapbooking layout I used my new What’s The Point Stencil with PanPastels. Beforehand I had also treated the paper with PanPastels, then laid the stencil on top and dabbed the paint through. I love how vibrant the dots become.

The photo btw shows my grand-aunt with I think some friends…I found this photo when I was moving her apartment and it made me laugh hard. I hope I can trigger her memory on the story behind this :)

    Great stencil, Nat! I like that the holes are bigger than dots and more irregular. I can see myself using this a Loy, Love what you did with it in your page

    What a fun LO and yes, the story is needed (or it might have to become a Whatevers) LOL…just kidding.
    That stencil is a simple design with so many possibilities.

Layout: You Shine

When I saw this beautiful picture of the baby of a scrappy friend of mine- I knew I had to use this :)

Als ich dieses wunderschöne Photo des Babys einer Scrap-Freundin sah, wußte ich, dass ich dieses verwenden mußte :)

*You Shine*

I painted Cardboard with Eco Green Crafts Acrylic Paints, as well as stamped it with Eco Green Crafts Dye Ink. Then I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist on top. For the beautiful Vintaj Arte Metal Butterflies and the Vintaj Dragon Fly I used Versamark on top and then dipped them into several colored Embossing Powder Pots by Ranger, then heat set them. The Vintaj Fern Valley Fastenables were attached on the Prima Ferns as an extra highlight. For the Vintaj Basic Altered Blank I used Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam and then attched the Beaded Flower that was also painted with Glimmer Glam on top.

Supplies: Cardboard, Eco Green Crafts: Acrylic Paints, Paris Trunk Dy Ink, Stampin’ Up Script Stamp, Imaginesence Foam Stamp, Vintaj Butterflies, dragonfly and leaves, Altered Blank and Flower, Prima Fern Felt, Ranger Embossing Powder
Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist, SCRAPBOOK-ADHESIVES by 3L™ Mounting Squares, heidi Swapp chipboard Letters

Have a good one :)

    I do like the ferns with that precious child. Isn’t it nice to have friends with sweet children to scrap? Since I have no daughters I’m forever “borrowing” my friends girls to scrap on LO’s. LOL
