Happy play with my Gelli Plate and Stencil Girl stencils today! Jessica Sporn’s Jump for Joy stencil made me so happy as I experimented on envelopes from a huge stash I found buried in a cabinet recently.
You know when there is a test drive there are going to others playing too! Stop on by Jessica Sporn, Maria McGuire, and Michelle LaPoint Rydell !
You can watch the video directly on YouTube here.
Here are the 3 envelopes I made. I love that each has a different look even though they were all printed with the same supplies.
Here she is only stenciled with Posca Markers.
I found out about these markers thanks to Maria McGuire and now I am in love. They are so opaque. So juicy. So much fun with a stencil!
Grabbed some words off the stencil to create my own phrase that matched how I was feeling.
I have some wonderful news coming on Monday too. I am living my joy in so many ways right now! What joy do you have in your world today?
If you need more joy stop on over to Summer of Color and Paint Party Friday!
Supplies Used:
Gelli Plate Stencil Posca Marker Stabilo Pencil
I LOVE how you colored her in!!! Who wouldn’t LOVE to get this in the mail. She has so much ENERGY! Your videos are wonderful and you give great tips every time!

EEEKKK!!!! I just LOVE what you did with this stencil Carolyn! What a great idea to make an envelope, love the bright colors and how you used the paint pens to make the stenciled image multi-colored! I’m off to watch your video…

wonderfully vibrant and fun are words that come to mind when I look at your envelopes Carole. Someone would be very lucky to receive one of these through the post:)
Mail art is certainly “coming of age” again, and the marriage of the Gelli Plate and stencil (especially Jessica’s!) makes it a quick and fun project! Bravo, Carolyn!

Head over heels with this stencil!!!!! My heart still pitter pats for the door/window too! Do you have any comparison on Posca vs Montana Paint pens? I saw Michaels started carrying the Montana…they are a little pricey but have several widths of nibs….justa wondering? 🙂
Awesome video, thanks for sharing. Love the envelope!
She’s so fabulous and so colorful! She just pops off of your page (er, envelopes 😉 LOVE that you’re playing along, thank you! xoox
Really enjoying all the different videos! You always show how much fun you can have with your art and how you don’t have to worry! “Be Happy!” Thank you for your comment on my blog.
