STENCIL TIPS

If you are making a word or phrase stencil, use your computer to print out the word at the exact size you desire. Or use self-adhesive letters sold in sheets by type and style in art stores. Tape the printout or stick the store-bought letters to self-adhesive paper and trace over the letters with a craft knife to create the stencil.

Use round stickers, available from office supply stores, to create a polka-dot pattern.

To create a consistent floral pattern, draw one flower carefully and photocopy it several times. Tape the copies onto the self-adhesive paper and trace over them with the knife.
