Making Stencils with Contact Paper

when you live on a wing and a prayer you have

to get creative with your art supplies. i like using

stencils in my journaling but don't have the budget

for them. today i tried making my own using regular

shelving contact paper and some scrapbook paper.
they worked great! i blotted on the paint with a

makeup sponge and then wiped the stencil clean

with a baby wipe. these should hold up well with
 repeated use.

i made a quick little video on this….something that

is waaaaaay out of my comfort zone but maybe

i'll get better!

nothing says Starving Artist like using a paint stick
and binder clip to hold your phone while making
a video…..lol
