Happy Sunday!

Thanks for stopping by. 

A couple of ladies called this week, requesting a 

how-to-use-the-new-Wheelie-stencils blog,

so here’s one using the 

Branch and Leaves Wheelie stencil

It’s pretty clever.
Wheelie wheelie clever, in fact!
Take a closer look; 6 different leaves, 3 different sizes.
And 4 different branches/twiggies to dress.

Make-up sponges.

It really doesn’t get any easier than this!

Simply dial in the branch or the part of the branch 
you want to use, hold it in place, 
and sponge through the stencil.

Move the stencil to the next branch or twig you fancy 

(there are 3 different sizes)

Build your scene…

Now dial in the leaves. 

There are different leaves and different sizes, so lots of scope.

Add the leaves along the branches, using Library green.

The upper wheel acts as a shield, so you don’t add ink through other parts of the stencil.

This is the same for any of our Wheelies, whether they by images or ABC’s or numbers.

Wheelie wheelie clever!

You can set the scene to fit the layout.

 Just add a fitting sentiment.

All done!

As for cleaning? The little swivel rivet in the centre pops off, so you can clean the stencil as you would any other stencil, with warm soapy water or thinners ( for permanent inks and paints). 

Just watch where it pings !!! (Sam!) 

much love,
