I am happy to have been asked to help introduce Lynn Krawczyk as Artistcellar's newest Signature Series Artist. I was sent a set of her fabulous new stencils, "Marked", to experiment with. I will also be giving away one of these wonderful stencil sets! A randomly chosen winner from the comments to this post one week from today (on July 11th) will be sent a set of Lynn Krawczyk's "Marked" stencils. Please make sure to leave an email or someway that I can contact you, if you should be the winner.
First of all, I began playing with the stencils making mono prints and then embellished them further with pens and markers. Soon, I had a rather substantial pile of various colored collage sheets to work with. I plan to begin using these in my newest journal "Urban Ransom". The design of these stencils are just perfect for this journal.
And below a few journal pages in various states of completion -
The participants in this blog hop are listed by order of date posted and one lucky commenter on each post in the hop will win a set of Lynn’s new stencils! Please post comments on each and every post to increase your chances of winning!
