I tried it this weekend Paula! First 4 times didn't work (didn't dry the gesso enough, the water was going under the stencil, and I was leaving out the paper towel step of soaking up water before wiping), but 5th time was a charm. I sprayed the water on the stencil instead of in the negative area - I think I need a mister with a finer mist. I am addicted now. :) thanks for posting!!!

[storybeader]

it didn't work for me. And I tried it a number of times. 

Maybe my stencil was too flimsy?

Deb

[LiquidButterflye]

great video...but it would have been way more helpful to know where you got the stencil!;)

[storybeader]

that's a great technique!

Hard to believe it doesn't streak. Need to try this!

Thanks for showing us {:-Deb

Cant wait to get into my craft room and try this technique. Thanks to watching you here and on ustream I have found that stencils are wonderful and now have quite a few but not anywhere near as many as you Paula. Thankyou from the bottom of my heart for sharing your GREAT talent and helping me to find the confidence to explore new techniques with my supplies. Take Care, Fran.

[NolwennBC]

I love doing this technique, but i never thought of actually wiping after blotting it with the paper towel !

[imjkmd]

[purplebeadeddragonfl]

Paula you inspire me every time I watch you! I have only got to see your live show on Ustream a couple of times, mostly I end up watching the recording.......but I just wanted you to know how watching you has helped me get out my supplies and use them.....instead of letting them gather dust! Please keep the classes coming..........you are my creative muse

I have missed your vids.. going to have to try ustream. learning a lot from you. loved this technique...interesting what gesso and no gesso does. thanks again..margenek

[appalachianyeti]

Can't wait to try this.

[WhatYouMakeIt1]

Very cool tutorial...thanks for the side by side comparison...super helpful!

[B4UStamp]

I really liked how you showed both sides like that. Does it matter what type of gesso. I bought a bottle at Walmart and did  not realize that it was white. I did manage to get a small bottle of clear transparent gesso. I really enjoy your videos, always happy to get a notice when you have ready to view. TFS and God Bless.

I tried this technique Saturday night after your Ustream show and I love this! Now an extra to try (no gesso). I need more stencils!

[hastalueguito]

you're scrappy, i like you. you should be brave and try other kinds of art, and putting real protest messages and really showing yourself. you would be so good!! you already are, and you're just playing and having fun, imaging how great could you art be with real intentions! lots of love

[craftychick01]

This is cool . Was wondering what is the thickness of the paper used in the journal . Is it like cardstock .. Like a matte type ? Thanks for sharing . I love to stencil but haven't tried this technique yet.
