I adore using words in my art and art journaling so it is no surprise I designed Use Your Words for StencilGirl Products.
This is not one stencil but really many stencils that can be used alone or together. I use this as one big stencil in my play but I also use just parts of it. Today’s video shows you how I use just one or 2 words.
You can watch Playing with only part of the Use Your Words stencil on YouTube here.
I keep a big piece of paper on my counter to catch the messes. After a while, I begin to really like the blotter paper as it fills up with spills, splatters, and other colorful messes.
Here’s what it looks like with 2 of the words from Use Your Words and acrylic paint. I used a bit of white Stabilo pencil to lighten up the dark purple parts of the letters.
Painting this one word at a time allows me to put the words in any order I want or combine any words I want.
Not quite as messy a section of the blotter paper, but still plenty of color and mess happening here!
Here it is with the black pen sketching around it. It is a Signo micro pen of some kind from the office store.
I love the way the bits of color peek through the letters in freedom!
So what you do you think I should do with these? Art journal page? Altered Postcards? ATC’s? or something else?

to it to embellish it and now it is ready to fly out the door to the mailman.
