StencilGirl & Resketch Blog Hop!

4/22/2018

Welcome to the StencilGirl® Products & Resketch Blog Hop!

To celebrate Earth Day today, Team StencilGirl® members are getting creative with
Resketch products and StencilGirl® stencils!
Resketch creates unique journals and sketchbooks made of high-quality reclaimed paper.

Why use reclaimed paper?
Resketch explains: "We think it's tragic when paper that's otherwise perfectly fine to use
is tossed in the garbage, or even the recycling bin.
Let's take that paper and create something awesome with it."

I found all kinds of fun papers inside my 7" x 9" Resketch book!
I combined the colorful papers with my Let's Go 2 stencil and It's a Small World Longitude stencil
to create my Earth Day art journal page:

My Resketch book contained all sorts of colors AND MAPS! Woot! Woot!
And I had a lot of fun cutting, tearing, layering and collaging these!

On one of the titan buff colored papers, I stenciled this globe image using StazOn ink in Spiced Chai,
a sponge dauber and my Let's Go 2 stencil from StencilGirl® Products:

Let's Go 2 stencil

Using Seth Apter's Starstruck die with gray and kraft papers found in my Resketch book,
I cut out star shapes and layered these into the composition, too, backing them in white paper to add contrast:

And I used Deep Sea embossing powder from Seth Apter and Emerald Creek
with my It's a Small World Longitude stencil...

It's a Small World Longitude stencil

...and sky blue paper from my Resketch book to create this detail below:

The only paper not from my Resketch book is the western hemisphere image
on the top right portion of the composition.

It was fun to challenge myself to create this Earth Day page
relying on papers from my Resketch book and no paint!

I have never heard of these sketchbooks - talk about piquing my interest! Mary, after leading me to the bird guts (which I received the other day and love!) you have sent me down yet another path! Keep it up! Life's too short not to be guided by other creative souls!
