Welcome to the Stencil Girl Imagine Blog Hop! I am glad you are here!
My project is a simple one – Rapunzel gloves for my little friend Bella who just turned 8!
I must tell you that it is super coloring with Imagine’s All Purpose Inks.
The inks do not bleed under the stencil and the Fantastix really hold and preserve the unused ink. I honestly had not painted with them since December and expected the tips to be dry or mostly dry, but that was not the case. Applause! Nice to have a product work as I hope it will while I am learning!
StencilGirl Stencils used:
The small “Kantha Stitch” stencil from April 2016 – StencilClub Mary Beth’s Private Collection for the pavement in front of the town, Jessica Sporn’s Embrace the Rain stencil for Rapunzel (and I flipped the stencil over so the arm so it was facing the way I wanted), and Carolyn Dube’s Once Upon a Time stencil/masks.
Beyond this project, I am fabric painting with a singular goal in mind.
Years ago I had this gorgeous, sheer, golden scarf with red roses on it.
It got tangled in a Xerox 1090 copy machine when I leaned over to grab the copies. The attorney waiting for her copies stood there and laughed while my scarf ripped and the machine pulled my neck down – there’s a William Shakespeare quote about lawyers that applies to that woman!
At some point you will see me recreate that scarf. That day, is in the future.
However, within mere moments, a click on any of the links below will take you to a fantastic project dreamed up and brought into existence by my comrades in art!

Dress up gloves (sans fingers)!!! My granddaughter would LOVE to have something like that! Such a fabulous idea and you did a wonderful job of making the storybook come to life! Bella is a lucky girl! And without fingers, she will be agile enough to grab necessary accessories to enhance her play.
Thanks so much!
That’s something totally different – perfect for my granddaughter!
