I like color. I know you are shocked since it is such a well kept secret that I like color….Well today I am playing in the stencil hop with Pam Carriker’s Primary, Secondary, Tertiary color wheel stencil for StencilGirl Products.
I started with a tag by gluing on some old writing and then randomly rubber stamping.
I added color with acrylic paint and Pam’s stencil, Primary, Secondary, Tertiary color wheel. I am so glad this hop fell on a Friday so I could share this with my friends at Paint Party Friday!
Since I love the entire rainbow there had to be more color on this tag. In came the green and yellow acrylic paint.
I had some butterflies left over from another project (yesterday’s in fact) and what is on my counter is often exactly what I need. A parade of colorful butterflies just made me happy!
This cried out for text but I “had nothing to say” so an old book to the rescue. I searched around in the book for phrases that felt interesting. The 2 phrases, “tell me your wish” and “I could use my secret powers” worked so well together. But I needed 2 words – of color. Guess what- it is pretty tedious to actually look in a book for an exact word. So I built color instead of looking for it forever…

Oh Carolyn! I LOVE color! Hope I win one of these stencils! I don’t have many and have a couple in my carts…wishing for them! Your tag is gorgeous! Love your tutorial!
Great fun and love the color as you know…..is this a regular tag or a giant tag – it looks really big….something to hang in the studio to inspire you to use your secret powers early and often. xox
It’s a big one- but not jumbo big- can’t remember the actual office supply store name of this size of tag. I do have some tags that are literally the size of a piece of copy paper….
I love your color choices

LOVE it! A little text trick for you…I believe it’s in Amazon has a “reader” thing on their site where you find your book, type in the word(s) your looking for & it TELLS you what page it’s on! But OF COURSE I can’t find my link to it! When I do, I will send it to you!
That is so cool! Thanks! I will try that next time- so much faster than my way!
