Donna’s gorgeous stencils and stamps are so inspiring! This art journal spread was inspired by beautiful stencil "Collage Portrait”, it’s beautiful and easy to use. I used this stencil together with black gesso and black embossing powder. It creates beautiful, shiny layer, so different than acrylic paint on the paper. I Mixed pink and beige and gold Hades to create delicate and girly background. It created amazing contrast with black shapes and patterns. I used "Chicken coop” stencil to create my background, I used black gesso and embossing powder again. You can watch it step by step on video that I created for you!
