Hi and welcome to Day 2 of the StencilGirl / etchall Blog Hop! When you get to the bottom of my post be sure to comment to enter the giveaway then hop on over to the other blogs and comment for even more chances to win.
For my project I used these two etchall products.
- etchall stencil spray
- etchall etching creme
I also used a glass craft block that I picked up at my local craft store.
After giving the back of my Women Will Heal The World stencil a quick spray with the stencil spray, and letting it dry a few minutes, I placed it over the front of my glass block. I have to tell you, this spray is awesome. It prevented seepage and kept my etched design nice and crisp.
I used just a bit of washi to mask off any parts of the stencil that I didn’t want to etch into my block.
Next, using the an etchall squeegee, I applied the etching cream, per the directions and let it sit the required amount of time. It was about 15 minutes.
I love that the etching creme is reusable. Anything you scrape off can be put right back into the bottle!
Once all of the creme was removed I gave it a quick wipe with a baby wipe and rinse it under water.
To finish it off I added a piece of gel plate printed card stock to the back of it and added a few lights inside. Just like that, and in a few short minutes, I transformed a plain glass block into a decorative nightlight.
These glass blocks are really versatile.If you want to dress it up even further, you can fill it with rocks, or corks as I’ve done below, affix some flowers to the outside, and add your lights.
Thanks for following along! Be sure to check out all of the other wonderful projects made with StencilGirl stencils & etchall products!

My D-I-L has lots of wine corks – I’ll

The red behind the first etching
really makes the design pop.
