Welcome to Stencil-a-Palooza!  Several days a week for the next month or so I'll be featuring one of my eighteen stencil designs for The Crafter's Workshop!  Each post comes with a giveaway.  Leave a comment answering the question-of-the-day and you might be the winner of that day's featured stencil in both 6x6 and 12x12!  Comments will remain open on this post for seventy-two hours.  The winner will be announced after that.  In the meantime, if you'd like to purchase any of the stencils there are many in-person and online shops to choose from.  See a complete list here.

Today I'm going to share a little bit about TCW226 Leaf Frame:

I designed the two "frame" stenciils so that the center area is 4x6 on the 12x12 version (perfect for a photo) and 2x3 on the 6x6 version (perfect for a wallet sized print).

You can use the frame as a whole (I used the 6x6 version on this layout):

Or you can just use part of it, as I did on the borders of this art journal spread:

With a little bit of masking know-how I created a crown of leaves for the figure on this tag:

On this layout I stenciled the leaves onto book pages and then cut them out:

I made two Christmas tags with the Leaf Frame:

To win both the 6x6 and 12x12 versions of the Leaf Frame Stencil, answer the Question of the Day:

What kind of artist are you?  Do you scrapbook, quilt, art journal, collage, knit...let me know!

Just a reminder: To be eligible to win, you must post your comment in the comment section of this blog post.  You cannot post on Facebook or by replying to the e-mail (if you subscribe) in your inbox.  The reason for this is that I pick a winner via "random number generator" so I need a single list of comments.

Thanks for stopping by!
