StencilGirl Mixed Media Sampler Journal Review and Giveaway!

4/7/2014

Mary Beth Shaw has done it again! Her StencilGirl Mixed Media Sampler Journal DVD is delightful!

Mary Beth is brilliant, witty, and generous as always in sharing her creative techniques!

Watching this DVD will really get your wheels turning and ideas flowing as she demonstrates a variety of stenciling techniques on an array of substrates! Mary Beth shows how to stencil on wood, foam core, Gator foam, and scratchboard. She shows how to experiment with both two and three-dimensional media: from wood burning to PanPastels, Inka-Gold, CitraSolv, alcohol ink and even an ancient Mexican technique of embossing copper!

She’ll explain how to “think outside the stencil,” to generate oodles of ideas from stencils!
My other favorite quotes from this DVD are Mary Beth encouraging us to “take mixed media to the max” and go on a “quest for layering!”

I loved this DVD so much, I ordered an extra copy to give away!

Simply enter through Rafflecopter below! Good luck!
Open to USA only.

Stay tuned...
next Monday I'll be reviewing and giving away a copy of Mary Beth's StencilGirl Mixed Media Wall Hanging DVD!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog.
And good luck!
Mary^

I like to use stencils in all layers of my mixed media work. Backgrounds. Elements on top of the background. Accents near the "finish." Love 'em.

I love stencils for backgrounds in my journals and doing some artwork on top of them. Although, sometimes the backgrounds are too pretty to cover up!

I am just beginning to stencil and so far have created fabric to use in quilts. Have never kept a journal and am thinking I would like to. This could be the impetus I need!
