Seth Apter has outdone himself with his stencils for StencilGirl Products! There are so many possibilities in each and every one of them! What I love about it is I can pick and choose the parts that I want for each project I am doing. In the video you’ll notice how many colors of paint are on this stencil. This one has been used a lot!
I’ve got a short video (3 and half minutes) showing how I put this together. And I was a bit excited that I actually left white space on this…usually it ends up filled with color but not this time!
You can also watch Using Seth Apter’s Stencil on a Card on YouTube.
I wanted to use this arch in my card. You can see how I made this arch in Washi Tape and A Canvas. I used all sorts of tapes using techniques from my workshop, Transform Your Tape.
I love these numbers and they were so easy to stack to cover the entire arch.
Here’s the final card- I am extremely proud of myself for actually leaving some white space! This doesn’t happen often…

Fantastic, Carolyn!
The contrast of the black and white really enhances your spectral scheme!

It was nice to see some white areas on the design, as most people seem to go overboard all the time by filling every available spot.

Here’s hoping I win one 🙂
