Ooh, good tip to look for that beveled edge. I haven’t consciously noticed that on any of my stencils, but I’m definitely going to examine them a bit closer next time I pull them out.
I like using modeling paste with stencils to add a bit of depth to a piece. I especially like how it looks when using acrylic ink (or really any very liquid medium) over the top after it dries. If you encourage it to run/pool, you get that vivid color in the valleys and lighter color in the raised areas that I find very satisfying.
Thanks! It isn't super noticeable and not all stencils have beveled edges, but it does help a bit for getting a crisp image.
I love modeling paste too! It's an amazing medium and works so well with acrylic inks, fluid paints and so many other mediums. I love how it pools too, there is something so satisfying about the way the color spreads. I've been recently exploring modeling pastes and the Golden Modeling Paste or the Liquitex Flexible Modeling paste are my favorites. They are perfect for the art journal because you can bend them without cracking the medium. I've actually been using it with book covers because it's both strong and flexible. I'm so glad that there's other people out there who love pastes! I've been teaching my students how to use them and I was surprised how many of them had never used pastes before.
@@hopalongstudio I think I’m going to check out the flexible modeling paste. I’ve used the regular stuff mostly on ATCs and recently on a small junk journal, but it’ll be good to have on hand for art journals and larger pages. 🤔
@@mymindness Awesome! I happened to be watching a demo from one of the Golden Artists and she was talking about how heavy you can put put on modeling paste and still have it be flexible. I thought it was amazing and opened up a lot of options for art journaling and larger pages. The last thing you want is your medium to crack!
Very helpful! Ine new thing for me was your suggestion to put your first 'smear' down to hold the stencil in place.
Thank you, I'm glad that you found it helpful. Yes, that first pass of the paste does make a big difference! It might seem like I add a lot in my first pass, but it really does help hold the stencil into place. Thanks for watching!
Thank you. This was helpful
I'm glad that you found it helpful! Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much for this! I'm a double stroke survivor, who turned to art and card making after early retirement.
You're welcome! I'm so glad that you're taking the time to enjoy creativity in your retirement. Thanks for watching!
I really enjoyed this video. Thank you.
I haven’t used paste yet. You sure make it look easy though.
You sure make a lot of beautiful things. I enjoy your teaching style as well.
Have a happy day today. ♥️
Thanks for watching and for your kind comment! Paste is really fun, but there is a bit of learning curve with it. I've been using it for a while, so I know I make it look easy! Don't be discouraged if you don't get perfect results on the first try. I like to start with a few samples when I get a new product before using it on a project that I'm attached to. I hope that you have great results with this medium!
Beautiful video. For detailed stencils, I use a combination of pixie spray on the stencil to hold on it to card front and painters tape (from the back of the card to the stencil to hold them in place
Thank you! I have some pixie spray but haven't tried it myself- you're inspiring me to pull it out and give it a try! I feel like there's so many ways to help us get great images using stencils- thanks for sharing yours!
I really enjoy watching you demonstrate your technique! Knowing items to use, and what will work, is half the battle.
I'm wondering if gesso could be used, or is it too thin? I'm a painter who always wanted to make cards for friends and family. I tried this for the first time yesterday. I make stencils with a Scan n Cut. I used an extra Cricut scraper to spread it, and heat tool to dry modeling paste (was not wanting to wait so long!). I want to make cards, but plain painted cards are just boring. This is so cool! You opened up a whole new thing for me.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed the video and got a lot of good tips from it! You are so right, knowing what to use and what will work is half the battle! Yes, you can use gesso through a stencil, it won't be as thick and dimensional, but it's a way of adding a little bit of texture into your design. You can also get extra heavy gesso which I usually apply to a lot of my canvases before painting on top. Because it has tooth, the paint sticks beautifully to it and you still get fantastic textures.
That's wonderful that you're playing with stencil making. I've been dabbling with it as well with mixed success. I LOVE adding texture to everything, once you start adding it to your projects, it's hard to go back! Thanks for your lovely comment!
I'm glad to know that when the paste is a bit too thick the corners can be pulled up when removing the stencil. I haven't done much paste yet, for lack of instruction, so thanks for all your information! Please let me know if you have a decent recipe for homemade paste.
You're welcome! I'm really glad that you found this video helpful. The thickness of the paste definitely makes a difference if you want those crisp edges. I don't have a recipe for homemade paste, but I'll be sharing in a week or so the ways you can alter paste to save some money. Thanks for watching!
How long does it take to dry? What do you use to wash your hands?
It depends on your climate, I find it dries in a few hours where I am because it's so dry where I live. You'll know its fully dry when the back of the page is room temperature and not cold. Also, the paste should be dry to the touch.
Because this is an acrylic medium, I use soap and water and that will wash away the paste. Sometimes these mediums will really dry out my hands, so if I paint with them a lot, I tend to wear gloves.
Can you add colour yo thus paste if so what type would I need please x
Yes, you can color this paste with inks, paints or any other acrylic medium. You can color pretty much any medium (modeling paste, fiber paste, gel paste, matte or gel medium to name a few). Check out this video where I walk you through it! th-cam.com/video/PxbGml-JTkA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=GyFZrI35KBkoWekI
