Let's keep looking at those new stencil designs!

2018WinterStencils

Number Scramble…

NumberScramble-copy
…is probably the most popular stencil from this release.  And I can see why!

NumberScramble-wm
It makes an awesome graphic background as in this piece by arteverydaystudio:

Arteveryday-numbers

Or in this example that I did using modeling paste:

Modelingpaste-numbers
Or this card from Heidi (with a full tutorial on the Crafter's Workshop blog):

Card-1-2
Magic Ladder…

Magicladder-copy
…is a really cool pattern.

MagicLadder-wm
I used it to do some glitter stenciling:

The Shapes stencil…

Shapes-copy
…is my personal favorite stencil from this release.

Shapes-wm
You can see how I used it to create a face in this short video:

89-wm
And I used it throughout December to create my hexagon and other geometric stamps for #CarveDecember, like these ones:

11-alternatestamp-wm
You can see a video of the stencil in use below:

Alphabetica…

…is a mask, like Solemn Branch (shared yesterday).  The color you add goes around the letters (i.e. the white was added after the blue):

Alphabetica-wm
I put together a video that I hope clearly defines the difference between a stencil and a mask, and it even has some bonus content at the end: How I clean modeling paste off of my stencils.

Finally, Circle of Jewels…

CircleofJewels-copy
…is made up of my favorite shape: circles! It's circles of circles of circles:

CircleOfJewels-wm
You can see it used here as a soft background by AnnaHubert01:

Annahubert
So, there you have it!  The complete guide to my latest round of stencil designs.  I hope you'll post photos of what you make with them and hashtag them #balzerdesigns so that I can see them!
