CHA Summer 2012 Stencil Peeks: Part One
July 16, 2012
I am currently in Chicago for the Craft & Hobby Association Summer Show (CHA). If you don't know what CHA is, read this post. I am debuting fifteen new stencil designs with The Crafter's Workshop this summer. There are two new coordinating stamp/stencil sets as well! Everything should be available for sale by August. Fingers crossed. I thought I'd share the new stencil designs with you over the next four days. I hope you're as excited about them as I am!
I used five different stencils on this art journal page, but the ones you really notice are "4 Flowers"...
...and "Pattern Strips."
The "Pattern Strips" stencil will have a matching set of stamps! Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!
For the layout above, I used the "Pattern Strips" stencil again, but printed in reverse. I also used the "Life Strips" stencil:
This stencil will be available in both 6x6 and 12x12 and the 6x6 version will have matching stamps too! I love this stencil. It has already made several appearances in my art journal and my Project Life album:
I also used the "Pattern Strips" stencil (it's just one of those workhorse stencils, you know) on this layout, just under the photo:
You can see the "Hexagons" stencil used in 6x6 and 12x12 to create the background of the layout.
I know that it's my stencil and so I really shouldn't say this, but I just love the way the hexagons are laid out. It makes it easy to use only one size (if you want) or to create a cool overall hexagon pattern!
I'll be back tomorrow with some more peeks.
