Newspaper House

This is my newspaper house for this week's Journal 52 challenge. I began by putting a light coat of gesso on a piece of newspaper. Then I stenciled this Carolyn Dube stencil over it.  I used a small journal so the darling steps to this house don't show. You will see it again in all it's glory I'm sure.

I stenciled a few branches using a Club Scrap stencil and then added fall leaves by using the tip of a small stencil brush and craft paint.  I added a bit of yellow with my finger so it would appear the lights were on in the house.

  1. I love this Boo. It immediately reminded me of a Christmas image that shows the lights on behind the windows. I also love the gorgeous tree in the background and all its colours. :o))

  5. I definitely see your vision. I love houses and trees! You can use them together or use them alone and they always make wonderful images for one' heart.
