Sieze the Day



As promised, I'm catching up, and sharing some of my posts that should have been made already!

Here is my first page for ScrapFx this month.  We finally got the chance to play around with some of the stencils.  These things are AWESOME!!!!  First of all they don't release toxic fumes during the cutting process so they are much better for the environment, but they are also the best quality of stencil I have ever worked with.  I tend to forget to clean my stencils right away so it can be a chore after letting modeling paste dry over it...and usually while cleaning it I do bend the details out of shape a bit.  I was so surprised that I didn't have that problem with the Scrap Fx stencils! That's how well made they are!

For this particular page I used the small engineering stencil
and the steampunk stencil
Steampunk Stencil
with modeling paste and then misted away.



I've used one of the large cogs on this one and added some eyelets and Gauche Alchemy punchinella to the back of it...plus, in this pic you can see where I actually used the rectangle punchinella instead of only using it as a stencil!
 For the "Life is good" wordlet, I painted it and then added some distress ink


This is just another view of the texture...


Well that's it for now!  I will have some more pages using Scrap Fx products coming soon...

Hope you're all having a fabulous week!
