I made a stencil.  It didn't work.  And so I fixed it!  So much of success in art is perseverance, I think.  I hope this video will motivate you to keep pushing through, even when you don't like the results. It’s a reminder that failure isn't the end, but just a step on the way to success.

And here's a peek at some gorgeous prints using my fabulous new stencil and mask:

I'm thinking that I might cut out some smaller versions of this design to use as well.  Lots of possibilities!

PS: As I mentioned in the video, Maker and Super Learner Members will get access to this design as an SVG cutting file in May. Don't miss out!

Thanks for stopping by!
