Hello! Welcome back to the BPM blog. For this month, I will be featuring BPM stencils on my projects. And, there is a GIVEAWAY! I received extra stencils from Kim, BPM's owner. She agreed for me to offer it as a giveaway (Thank you, Kim!) The stencils I will use on my projects for this month will be the giveaway. More instructions at the end of this post.
I used the BPM Stoneworks stencil on my art journal.
This stencil has intricate parts which has the potential to move when I blend ink with a brush. To prevent this, I sprayed the stencil with a temporary adhesive which makes the back of the stencil tacky without harming the stencil.
I positioned the stencil on my journal. I used a blending brush to apply ink over the stencil.
I blended ink on two succeeding pages of the journal. My stencil is shorter than the journal. I moved the stencil down to continue the pattern.
I fussy cut the first blended journal page, following the curved edges of the stones.
Instead of pitching the cut part of the journal, I blended ink over this to create a middle page.
The photo above shows how I moved the stencil downwards to continue the pattern of the stones.
I applied glue next to the spine of the journal.
I adhered the blended cut up page to the adhesive.
I set this aside to give the liquid glue a chance to dry.
This is how the journal page looks when opened on the second page. I added a stonework quotation on the last page but I can write over this stenciled patterns if I want to.
I hope you like today's project.
