How to Create a Collage of Patterns on a Gel Plate

By using pieces and parts of a stencil, you can create a plethora of patterns and prints on a gel plate! Make as a great collage look! I'm using my Wrought Iron collection from StencilGirl Products to create tags and papers in black and white but what about doing this with color? You can see what colorful collage prints with these stencils look like at acolorfuljourney.com/?p=35136

You can find me designing stencils for StencilGirl Products, teaching in person and online workshops and sharing the message of O.O.P.S. here on UA-cam and on the blog, aColorfulJourney.com
What does O.O.P.S. stand for? It stands for Outstanding Opportunities Presenting Suddenly.
Those “failures” and “mistakes” that we so harshly criticized ourselves about actually became true gifts as soon as you start saying O.O.P.S. Try saying Oops in an angry tone. It makes it even more silly!
I just can’t take myself seriously when I say Oops which is just what I needed to play. I began to play, to have fun, and to embrace all of my “mistakes”.

Carolyn! Those are FANTASTIC stencils! What a brain wave from your trip! Love the prints you made with them - black and white or colourful

[@terrifoley4152]

Great video!

[@CarolynDube]

Thanks so much Terri!

[@janetseager4069]

Lovely stencils, Caroline. I was desperately hoping you would pull a ghost peint from the plate. It would have been gorgeous

[@revCMF]

Oh, I’ve been wondering about the outside part of my masks - could never figure out how to make them usable. Sure am glad I didn’t throw them out. Thanks for the tip!

[@OpheliaChang]

This whole video is so clever, and you know, Carolyn, how much I love your clever ideas!!! I have all your new stencils in my cart, ready to go! Thanks!

[@kyleoliver9538]

These are so beautiful Carolyn, thank you for designing them. Just when I thought I had enough stencils!

[@marileemck]

Well dang! Just when I thought to slow my purchasing of stencils. Your designs bring back so many wonderful memories of trips to Savannah, England, & France. Thanks Carolyn. ~Marilee

[@CarolynDube]

In places so rich in history, you must have seen such gorgeous wrought iron Merilee!

[@myzanyself]

OMG! These are fabulous! Thank you and I know what I’m getting for Christmas!

[@CarolynDube]

I can't wait to see what you create with them!

[@jerigale]

The stencils are stunning. I live in Savannah, GA and the historical ironwork is exquisite. The designs and fences and buildings have been photographed and painted over and over by tourists and locals alike. Lived here 70 years and would love to know what you were told by your tour guide!.

Can you use the papers you make with these stencils in artwork you sell?

[@rikae1906]

Where can I buy your stencils?
