Spirit of the Woods by Helen Chilton

If you saw the shows on Hochanda last week you'll have seen these lovely new stamps and stencils. I've used them on a journal page:
I'm using a 5x7 Gelli Plate and the A4 circle stencil which has to be one of the most useful of all time!
This is a semi circle and grid stencil with the lovely Orange Multi Surface Paint:
And finally this stencil (not sure what it's called) which I've used again and again:
After that I stencilled directly on the page - some more white circles, but not too heavy as I wanted the background to show through.
Then I used the stencil as a mask to stamp and black emboss Lynne's trees.
I added specks of silver embossing powder on top of the black - I've decided two tone embossing is the way forward!
The words and phrases on this set are fantastic and also very flexible - to get the right curve I just put the block over the circle and curved the words round to fit.
I got so carried away I did a double layer!
Supplies:

I've loved making this. Not wanting to waste any paint, I made another background with the gelli plate at the same time which I'm going to use for another project.

Amazing layering Helen and just love the silver specks on the trees as they give a lovely texture to the page.
