Try it On Tuesday-another entry for Have Fun with Stencils

  I want to thank Try it on Tuesday for this fun theme. I have a few stencils in my craft stash but I usually go with my stamps instead.

  I wanted to use my Canada Geese stencil for this page. I am glad that I decided to try out different things on paper first to see what would work. The lines are very narrow-so color pencils, crayons, pens, fabric ink pens did not work.
   So I was thinking my acrylic paints will work with a fine brush.
Clean up went well with a clorox wipe-soap did not work on this brass stencil

   I glued down a cotton quilt fabric scrap-backside up into my art journal. Still got a nice background showing from the print.
  I went into my magazine pages to find the water scene.
I recycled scraps of fabric from my stash, recycled magazine pages, the stencil was purchased used.

At first I thought this piece needed something more but I decided to stop here.





I will be linking up with Try it on Tuesday

Thank you for stopping by

  2. This looks lovely Kathy. I like that background. The stenciled Canadian Goose came out great. I also like that recipe. (I love Mexican food.)

  8. I like the goose in the cattails. Geese stay here year 'round. They're messy, but it's fun to hear them and see them flying :)

    1. I love the Canada geese too-we had a pair that returned several years to raise their young ones at our woods ponds-but they really made a mess of them-Husband was not happy. here we see them all the time at the lake-and I love that-along with lots of other birds

  10. I like your goose image Kathy. You've created a wonderful page. It makes me feel like I am on a field trip or journey out in the wilderness, which would be nice right now, if we could that is. Thanks so much for joining us at Try It On Tuesday again. Glad to have you here. I hope you had a great day. Hugs-Erika

  11. This is adorable, Kathy. It's a great stencil, too. You did GOOD!!! Those geese live here all year because people feed them. No motivation to fly south for winter when they get fed here!

    I really like how you used fabric for the background.
