A Few Minutes of Fun during August 2024 will feature a Simple Summer Stencil Series... sharing some great techniques with stencils, texture pastes, embossing powders and more. And for this episode I had to dive in a little deeper, so you've got a few MORE minutes of fun to see out the month!

Bricks and stones are some of my favourite things to create with stencils... mixing my mediums, playing and exploring to get a look that I like. I hope you'll enjoy these stony backgrounds too!

Not all of these products were used in the video, but all of them (and many more) are great ingredients for creating bricks and stones.
