However, if you want depth, that is the only way to achieve it. <br /><br />I'm totally in love with the backgrounds you are making and agree that the negative stencil image is probably as much fun as the positive stencil image. I do that every time I use a stencil. Sometimes I even prefer the "flip side" better.<br /><br />I don't believe I've ever used AIs over gesso or paint before. I have only used them over metal. I like that you experimented with a product one would not normally use. BTW, I never used a calligraphy pen in my life. I felt lucky when I graduated from pencil to ink pen (grin).Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291320690041768767.post-81934464935366863732012-06-11T07:55:11.608-05:002012-06-11T07:55:11.608-05:00Your who knew a toilet paper roll could be so usef...Your who knew a toilet paper roll could be so useful made me laugh. At a class I took on printing on fabric one of the coolest looks I got on my fabric that day was making a shape from the top of a antiperspirant container and using a potato masher. Who knows what will work? <br />That's the fun part!Jo Vandermeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387737331055177779noreply@blogger.com
