Make a Stencil Print on Paper
Want to make your own stencils? Follow these steps to make awesome stencils, to use on cards or anything.
Steps
- Take a piece of paper and draw a simple design. It could be a flower, or initials, or anything you want.
- Use card stock or another heavyweight paper, and cut out the pattern. Lightly tape the pattern to the card stock. Take a pencil and trace on the pattern, so that you can make a imprint on the cardstock.
- Take the pattern of the cardstock, and use an x-acto knife to cut out the pattern on the cardstock, and trace on whatever you like.
Tips
- After you cut out the pattern on the cardstock, put the stencil on paper or what ever you want. Then you can spray paint the pattern onto something.
Warnings
- When using the x-acto knife, have parental supervision, so you don't cut yourself.
