Hey Michelle. I really loved watching this one come together and pop off the page. Clever creating. I also loved hearing more about you. 💚 I still feel that uncomfortable feeling with stencils with images as I’m more comfortable with abstract but when I’ve pushed on I’ve ended up creating a page I really love. Like you just did. I think it pushes you creatively to find a way to use it that feels like you. Instead of doing what you always do, it pushes you out of your comfort zone with often awesome results.

@tammyporterakatambarambaa yes exactly Tammy! It's about making products work for you, pushing our creative boundaries and finding more things we love by playing 🩷

Love the colours. The black makes them pop a the white just adds to it! ❤ I’m just learning to use all the different types of materials. But I find it hard to create animal/ people stencils. But I give it a go!

@leanneaitchison615 the only way to get comfortable is to play amd make it your own 🩷

Loved this interpretation of the stencil today! You inspired me, as I had gone down the ocean route yesterday so was a bit stuck what to do today - I decided just to use it for patterns. I prefer yours tho lol x

[@Ladymichelleartjournal]

@@kathrynJMwest I'm sure yours came out fabulous. Thank you for being here 🩷

I enjoyed watching your process and hearing a bit about you. Personally I enjoy using images/creatures, particularly ABM's quirky ones. I always feel my attempts at abstract look unfinished!

[@Ladymichelleartjournal]

@craftycx7197 yes I thi k with abstract you could just keep going forever, but with a finished image it's easier to know when to stop. Glad you like this stencil 🩷
