clouds and landscapes
Posted by aroberts on Friday, February 23, 2007 11:15 PM

Can anyone help. I'm painting the backdrop on my layout and looking for the cloud and landscape templates/ that were featured in a backdrop painting clinic at Trainfest 2006. I would appreciate the name of the manufacturer and/or a dealer that sells them.

Here is one that sells stencils for painting clouds, mountains, city scenes etc.  Appears their website is down at this moment.

I simply cut out a piece of paper in the general shape I want the cloud to be and then handpaint it to look like a cloud. The painted piece is then attached to the backdrop with white glue. Here's the results.
