This usually greets me first thing in the morning: a fresh pot of tea on the kitchen counter.

Art Journal Weekend | Yesterday I taught a super fun workshop @gelliarts gel printing at the Royal Talens Experience Centre (@experience.centre.royal.talens ) in Apeldoorn! Of course I forgot to take a single photograph, so I’m borrowing these from some of the fab students: these stunning prints are by @marijevdzedde and when you swipe you can see @femkekokke’s table in action and last but not least a wonderful print in @martinerijnbeek‘s journal! @mashtagstudio also shared a fun little video on her feed, in which you can hear the sound of brayers hard at work! Thanks everyone for coming and @royaltalens for inviting me! #royaltalensexperiencecentre #royaltalens #gelprintingplate #gelliarts #stencils #monoprinting #gelprinting #amsterdamacrylics #gelliplate #gelliprint #acrylicpaint #artjournaling #artjournalweekend #talens #talensamsterdam #mixedmediajournal

The Stencilfied Journal | Prompt #20: Stencil a page. Embellish it with office supplies.⠀ ⠀⠀ Prompt #20! Can you believe it?! That means that there are only four more to come... Which makes me a bit sad, because I love these prompts, but I also think it will be good for me to work in a different format again.⠀ ⠀⠀ Anyway, for this prompt I stencilled the background using a @gelliarts gel printing plate, acrylic paint and @natkalbach's new @stencilgirl_products stencils Exchange Place and Central Ave. ⠀ ⠀ Then I scribbled with a white China marker. The lady came from a pack of vintage ladies magazines cutouts that I ordered from @badass_paperlover. The postage stamps came from my stash, but Esther happens to sell those too in her Etsy shop.⠀ ⠀ The other office supplies I used are a neon yellow highlighter, a neon pink highlighter, small round stickers, pink hole enforcers and a numberer which hardly had any ink left, so the numbers are only faintly visible.⠀ ⠀ I also used sellotape to close the pocket of the inside cover because it wouldn't lay flat on its own.⠀ ⠀ Then I splattered black paint (marker), I outlined the postage stamp shapes and... called it done!⠀ ⠀ The Stencilfied Journal is a StencilGirl® Collaboration Challenge hosted by the fab @adogslife13.⠀ ⠀ It's still not too late to join us! So if this sounds like something you'd enjoy then, by all means, grab a notebook and... stencilfy it!!!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ------⠀⠀ Please note that though I am a @stencilgirl_products columnist, this is not a sponsored post! I purchased the stencils mentioned in this post, and I'm participating in this collab because I think @adogslife rocks!⠀ ⠀ #thestencilfiedjournal #stencilgirl #stencilgirlproducts #mixedmedia #artjournaling #stencils #acrylicpaint #nathaliekalbach #printmaking #gelliprints #gelliprint #gelliprinting #gelliplate #artjournaleveryday #jumpstartyourcreativity #gelprintingplate

The Stencilfied Journal | Prompt #19: Stencil a page. Write one word over and over.⠀ ⠀ Sorry, I could not resist! ;-)⠀ ⠀ I can't remember exactly how I created the background. I think I may have used the page to clean a brayer, so there probably already was paint on there when I started with this week’s prompt.⠀ ⠀ What I do remember is that I stamped a ghost print on it using a @gelliarts gel printing plate. You can faintly see the lines of @natkalbach's new Hamilton stencil for @stencilgirl_products.⠀ ⠀ I also stencilled with one of my favourite hand-cut stencils and repeated the Hamilton pattern on top using blue StazOn ink and a cosmetic sponge.⠀ ⠀ To finish the page, I wrote 'one word' over and over with paint markers, black fineliner, white gel pen and white china marker. ⠀ ⠀ The Stencilfied Journal is a StencilGirl® Collaboration Challenge hosted by the fab @adogslife13.⠀ ⠀ It's still not too late to join us!
