Be Bold!

My first try out with my new hot tip tool.
I chose a rather thick foil, which proved to be slow to cut and the material produced threads. I managed to clear the stencil up OK, though. And when I was making the journal pages, I found a use for the cut outs, not just for masking...! See details.

After having used the cut outs for masking, and cleaned them partly, they had these nice, coloured edges, so I decided to use them as a collage element.

Maj, these pages are fabulous! Love the color and your new stencil (and stamp) are terrific. Very clever to use the cut-outs on your page too. I think a stencil of the arch should definitely be next. Thanks for sharing more of your work with the team.

Great idea to use the stencils/masks as collage elements! I'd like to see the gothic arches as stencils, too!
