NEW Stencil Designs-Tutorial Tidbits

[@illawallaroo]

I was just giddy at the wonderful wild (yet careful) abandon with which the colors were swooshed onto the gel and then the vast roll of paper was smoothed this way and that, ending up with sumptuous and complex patterns! Loved every minute of this!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Oh I’m so glad!!

[@SHANGRILAAA333]

YUMMY !!! After you'd pull up the paper I was "oooh-ing and aaaahing" SO pretty !!!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

that's the perfect reaction! YAY!

[@KiwiJane1]

If making gift wrapping, you could also do a light metallic stencil layer over the whole sheet to unify it.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

you totally could! yes

[@119Granite]

I loved watching you and that roll of paper. I have an old paper roll from an examination table...my mind is now in overdrive. FUN

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Oh that ROLL allows you to work FAST and not have to find six or eight sheets of paper on your messy desk. I love it. YES you can use that exam table paper! As long as it's not shiny or coated, it works!!!

[@cathleenconnellperkins804]

These new stencils are the BEST! I too ordered the ones you played with. I enjoy that you showed what they can do! I wouldn’t have ordered the background stencil to layer with if you hadn’t showed that....you have a huge creative brain that designs the greatest stencils👍🏼😀💗 I do have many of your other stencils & enjoy the heck out of playing & making collage papers💗💗💗 Thanks Elizabeth!!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

You’re so welcome!! Oh I’m glad you are enjoying the layering possibilities with those. My creative brain has been working hard since I’ve been home more!!

[@roxyfur]

I want every single one!! Gorgeous results, every one.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

oh thank you so much! they are sure fun to play with.

[@kathleenfarney5838]

I loved this session. So many papers in a short time!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Yes! Once you get going it’s a lot! Thanks

[@KiwiJane1]

Good morning, Elizabeth!! :-)

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Good morning Debs!

[@laurienye7514]

I absolutely love the pea pods and I've have 2 stencils of yours already. I enjoyed it very much. Thanks and God Bless.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thank you Laurie!!

[@ckd2114]

I love to watch your videos. It is addictive to watch your process. Also, thank you for explaining how to get various layers using different opacity.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

thanks so much! you are welcome about the explanation, that is very important when layering and it is why they go through the effort of painting the labels of the bottles by hand up there at Golden!

[@cheryl7476]

Heading over to Joggles to get more stencils and masks. Yours are my favorites to use when gel printing. They make me smile.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Smiling is my favorite!!! Thank you so much Cheryl

[@marionwigzell7334]

Gorgeous Elizabeth. Thanks for demonstrating them (-: Marion

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thank you Marion! Thank you for watching, I appreciate it.

[@KiwiJane1]

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Sold Out so fast? wow. They will be back in stock soon... glad you signed up for the notification. THANK YOU Debs!

[@KiwiJane1]

Oh too funny, I was just thinking it could be a fabulous gift wrap!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

YES!

[@Gracielascreative]

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thank you so MUCH for the support, I appreciate it

[@ecfinan626]

Just love your videos and now new designs!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

thank you so so much!

[@outofthecraftermath8497]

I just went to Joggles and looked at all of them. I am, MADLY, in love with Tik Tok! The first thing I saw when I looked at it was, birds on powerlines. Now that I've added that to my list I'll go back and have a better look at all of them. You've hit another home run with this collection. Wish I could convince Santa to bring me all 47 of your stencils. I've been really good this year...well, sorta good this year...umm, I didn't kill my daughter when she was super sassy, that should count for something. : ) Oh, well. I'll just have to be happy with the ones I get this time and save up my pennies to buy more. Thanks for sharing your talents with us.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

I could see that, birds on a wire! I was thinking about them as pendulums on grandfather clocks! Oh thank you so much, I tried really hard to make NEW shapes and patterns and to make them interesting and learn what people liked from the previous sets. Lots to consider. Well, Santa should appreciate a good value... I think they are so reasonably priced compared to others in the industry! But I understand a budget, for sure. THAT should count for something, I remember those years with my own daughter. YES be happy with the ones you have and put them to good use... You are so welcome!

[@carolyngreene8401]

Thank you for this extended demo of your Gelli printing approach. Love the new stencils.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

you're very welcome, thanks for watching and about the stencils, I think they are the best set yet!

[@BigMoepar]

Yeah. Just got all of em that you put out today. Got up early to do so, glad i did. Thanks for making me broke again! haha

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

You're the BOMB! thank you so much for the support, it means a LOT especially these days. xoxoxoxo

[@shaunnalyons4436]

Yes yes yes ❤

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

@@shaunnalyons4436 thanks!😊

[@amherst88]

*Absolutely* *gorgeous!* And thank you as always for demonstrating the layering -- your papers are always such an inspiration (and I, too, am going to be out-of-pocket) -- just when I thought I couldn't possibly use any more stencils . . . yours are irresistible ❤️

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Oh thank you!! I do appreciate your kind words and support.

[@kimvonende505]

Love these stencils, and the prints are beautiful

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

thanks so much Kim! I appreciate that

[@outofthecraftermath8497]

Yipee! Can't wait to see the rest of them. I've already got several of your old stencils/masks on my list. Now I need to add more.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

I think this is the best set yet Terrie!

[@Schypha]

I have just found you and I must say that I love you :0) What an inspiration you are. I am so excited to create some of these projects.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thank you so much! I’m glad you found me. I love to inspire others in creativity. I hope you enjoy the process!

[@dianeday2384]

Elizabeth, you inspire me! Thank you! Question:: I haven't seen you use butcher paper before, always rice paper. Will you use these butcher papers in your collage works or will they go in the 'don't use' pile (if you even have one of those)?

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

I actually use all different kinds of paper in my collage work! I do not have a pile of things that I don’t use, I definitely do use butcher paper but my favorite is the rice paper

[@Danadane314]

Congratulations! I love them all!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

why thank you Dana, I appreciate that!

[@lucybanta7311]

You're so talented and fun to watch! Thank you.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

thanks for taking the time so send such kind words Lucy!

[@cassfonnesbeck8057]

Awesome stencils!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks! They are about $6 each and great quality!

[@mimiguzzardo3407]

Wow! Great...

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thanks!!

[@terrybanet3330]

Hi, I’m a little late to the videos but I’ve been bingeing on your whole playlist. In making paper you seem to use a lot of metallics but in your collages I don’t see a lot that looks metallic. Is that just because I’m not looking at them in person? I know matte medium will knock down the metallic shine, how does the gloss gel handle it?

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Gloss keeps everything shiny. I use metallics layered with other colors, so I’m not making metallic paper necessarily, it’s all about the layering.

[@KiwiJane1]

I’ve been looking for an organic dot stencil like that! I also love the pea pods! UPDATE: I need ALL those stencils!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

LOL they will be available today on Joggles: bit.ly/3bAyMZy

[@KiwiJane1]

@@ElizabethStHilaire thank you, I just ordered 7 of yours and there’s two more that I wanted that are already sold out!

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

@@KiwiJane1 Already sold out!? wow. thank you so much Debs for the support

[@KiwiJane1]

Elizabeth, you’re very welcome and thank you! I’m super excited to be getting them and making lots of collage papers and other art!

[@flowerlady3150]

Love this and your other stencils as well! You are amazing! Need to invest in the copper, so many uses. What are your favorite reds for Christmas?

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Thank you so so much, I really appreciate your kind words. YES copper is a great color on its own as well as mixed with other colors. My all-time favorite red is Cadmium Red Medium, I feel that is really the TRUE red that you think about when you think about Christmas Red. :) Then you can just darken that down with a wee bit of Jenkins Green or Indigo and you'll have a deep, rich red.

[@barbarahill6365]

Why waxed paper? Would you show some of your collages? How you used your paper.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

you can see my work at PaperPaintings.com

[@fesitycarol5623]

Hi, Elizabeth ~ I'm one of your Patreon members and was wondering about the roll of paper. You said it was butcher paper and your Amazon page describes craft paper. I thought there's a difference with butcher paper having a coated side. Can you please clarify? Thanks and I love your tutorials, very precise directions. Thanks also for disclosing the color names. Best Wishes XO

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Hey, the butcher paper I had on hand is now out of stock on Amazon. when I searched it, craft paper also comes up. I do not want any coated paper, so you do not want to risk that. The craft paper roll I chose seems to be the closest thing, AND it was cheaper than the original butcher paper I purchased. Hope this helps.

[@fesitycarol5623]

@@ElizabethStHilaire Thank you!! Be Well XO

[@DrummerGrrrl]

Some of your stencils seem too flimsy to me...I'm too rough with my stencils...your designs are bad-ass but soooooo delicate. ❤💚💙💜. I mean, that ribbon stencil is way cool but I would be scared I'd rip it in half. Thanks for another awesome video.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

It's mylar, it does not rip, it's very very durable. they need to be think in order to cut the intricate detail on the more busy patterns. The biggest challenge is them getting tangled with each other, but they are not going to rip, I promise you that. :)

[@purplegemcrazyroyal5247]

Great video! Please sell your stencils on Amazon as Joggles is no longer delivering to the UK.

[@ElizabethStHilaire]

Joggles is the manufacturer and they do not sell anywhere other than their own website. Im sorry!

boy, I sure do wish those stencils were available, but they arent.
