I&#8217;ve been off learning jewelry making, and my poor blog has been ignored while I&#8217;ve been metalsmithing, making glass and ceramic pendants etc. But the past couple of weeks, I took a break and did some paper crafting. It was so relaxing and fun to go back to my old creative outlet! Lately I&#8217;ve gotten some comments on one of my youTube videos (see the related blog post <a href=\"http:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/make-embossing-plate\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>), most of it super nice although there was one snarky comment- can&#8217;t please everyone I guess ;). I responded to a couple of questions and mentioned that I use my stencils for lots of different things. One of which I was playing with for some cards this very week. So, since I was working with a handmade stencil similar to the one I used in that video, I decide to finally do a post showing some card fronts I just made with that new stencil.<\/p>\n<p>I use Dass Art&#8217;s Stone paper (see it <a href=\"https:\/\/dassart.com\/product\/stone-paper-2513x19\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">here<\/a>) because it cuts like a dream on the Silhouette with my detailed designs. I never can get regular cardstock or stencil material to cut well with most of my designs unless they are more basic. So in this case I was cutting feathers. I cut a bunch just to use as embellishments, but one corner of the paper I set the feathers up in a group to be used as a stencil. I wanted to play around with the Tim Holtz Distress Oxide and regular Distress sprays. Here is the stencil- after some use \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_3512\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3512\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-669x800.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-3512\" src=\"http:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-300x359.jpg\" alt=\"Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used\" width=\"300\" height=\"359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-300x359.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-scaled-400x478.jpg 400w, https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-669x800.jpg 669w, https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-768x918.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-1285x1536.jpg 1285w, https:\/\/ursula-smith.com\/mixed-media\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Stone-Paper-Stencil-Used-1714x2048.jpg 1714w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-3512\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Stone Paper Stencil after using with Distress Oxide Sprays<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>After I sprayed through the stencil with some different colors of Distress sprays and Distress Oxide sprays, I carefully lifted the stencil. The top of the stencil now had a bunch of ink, so I laid that down onto a different place on my work surface and took a plain white card front and placed it on top of the stencil with the leftover spray ink. I rubbed the back of the card stock in order to transfer as much of the ink onto the paper.
