Speaking in Polka Dots

Carolyn Dube — Fri, 10 Jul 2026 16:06:52 +0000

A silly misunderstanding sparked this play and no matter where inspiration comes from there’s magic in letting yourself creatively wander with ideas. Ever see something breathtaking and when you try to explain it someone, they just don’t understand what the big deal was? I found myself describing a burst of inspiration, only to be met […]

New Stencils! Spotted Layers for StencilClub

Carolyn Dube — Wed, 01 Jul 2026 11:00:00 +0000

It started with a feeling of wonder as I stood in an infinity room by Yayoi Kusama at the Speed Art Museum. Surrounded by a sea of mirrored circles, little did I know, those mesmerizing circles would spark the play that became the Spotted Layers stencil set for July’s StencilClub. What I love most about […]

Double the Heat: Layered Embossing Magic with Stencils

Carolyn Dube — Thu, 02 Apr 2026 19:14:44 +0000

Embossing powders are one of those art supplies that always make me smile when I use them—but if I’m honest, they don’t see the light of day nearly enough. That changed when the muse dropped a little “what if” thought at me. So I turned on the camera and I’m sharing the play of layering […]

Gel Printing On Fabric- See How the Layers Build

Carolyn Dube — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 16:00:00 +0000

What starts as a simple layer of paint can turn into a wild adventure. I set out to do a little gel printing with stencils—just for some playful experimentation—and by the third layer, I was completely smitten. But it was the fourth layer, with that black paint that just shifted everything! The stencils I used […]

New Stencils with Heart and a Bit of Snark

What happens when my head and heart need a place to let it all out? I create. I play.

These new […]

Gel Printers Summit 2025

Carolyn Dube — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 16:26:54 +0000

I don’t say this often, but sometimes, less is more. A gentle glint of sparkle in the right spot can transform a gel print from “nice” to “how did you DO that?” The kind of metallic that whispers, not shouts – a shimmer that makes you do a double-take. That’s exactly what I’ll be sharing […]
