How to make a Customized Stencil

Materials Needed:

• Mount board
• Cutter
• Pencil

Step 1. Draw a design which you want to make a stencil of on the paper then draw the design on the Mountboard.

Step 2. Cut out the design with a precise knife, Here I am using an X-acto Knife.

Step 3. And your Stencil is ready to make prints. Tape the stencil on the surface and use a sponge to make prints- only dab the sponge, you can also use a roller if you find that easy. Do not use more water in color as it might slip under the stencil.

Step 4. Now remove the Mount board from the sheet and your Artwork is ready!
